Review of the 11-hour Muir Woods, Napa, and Sonoma tour from San Francisco, with redwoods, three wineries, lunch, and Golden Gate views.
“The day was packed with activities but the pace was good and the stops were a great mix of activities. Some must do things are seeing the sequoias, tasting wine, shopping, eating, and seeing the Golden Hate Bridge and we had a chance to do all of that. The only draw back was that the cleaning solution used to sanitize and/or the air freshener the bus was string and made us want to cough. The guide was great, funny, and informative. Kudos to Ben.”

Sutter Home and Napa Winery were OK, the staff at Madonna and the experience they provided with the shop was superior to the other stops. The female driver (we can not remember her name) was very accommodating. Maybe look at different wineries to visit. Overall a good tour.”

Review of San Francisco’s Redwood and Wine Country tour, with Muir Woods, three tastings, Sonoma lunch, Wi-Fi transport, and Golden Gate views.
“Our guide, Roman, was fantastic. He was funny and very knowledgeable. He made everyone feel welcome and was concerned that everyone enjoyed themselves. Although we booked the trip primarily for the Napa and Sonoma wine tasting, the side trip to Muir Woods was definitely a bonus. We booked the lunch in advance and it was also very good and included wine with each of the 3 courses. We would definitely recommend this for others who have a short time to visit the wine country north of San Francisco.”
