Nice young man who gave us the tour. Felt he could have given more information along the way as we were driving. Since we went through San Francisco to get to wine country, he could have been giving us a running dialogue of historical information etc as we were driving through San Francisco.

Muir Woods is an absolute must! The Wine Country is great, however, your selection of wineries needs to be looked at. We visited one winery that could have cared less if we were there or not, they were just interested in selling items. Our tasting was less than adequate, as we were not told what type of wine we were tasting and were only given three to taste. The host just walked away from the group and we had no idea that we were finished. Totally unsatisfactory! However, the other two wineries were great.

The Muir woods experience was great. I would have enjoyed to stay there a bit longer. The Winery tour was fine, though they are all the same after a while. I would have enjoyed to see how and where the wine was manufactured. That did not happen.

This is a simple way to visit Sonoma and Napa Valleys and Muir Woods. It's a nice tour with a very entertaining guide. The first winery could've been better, but the others made up for it. Very enjoyable!

While my 24 year old daughter and I toyed with the idea of renting a car, we did not regret our decision to do a tour instead. Our group numbered only seven, all very congenial. Our guide was informative and friendly but very unobtrusive, the perfect combination. It was a painless way to be introduced to Sonoma. We both quite enjoyed the day.

Plenty of fun, informative driver with great personality, got us around in good time. A fantastic day overall, worth the money.

A great way to see Sonoma and Muir Woods! We wished we had more time in Muir Woods & Sonoma town square, but definitely was better than driving. We loved the wineries and of course, the tastings!

Very good tour. Well worth the money. The people at the wineries were informative and accommodating. Our tour guide was friendly and courteous. Muir Wood forest is magnificent.

Two of the wine venues were excellent. The guide was also excellent. My only complaint was that he was not very good at looking after 'lone' travelers.

Weather not very good on day of tour, which didn't help. Apart from that, didn't think it was good value for money, could have got it cheaper when we got there.

I would have liked more of a tour of the winery and its operations.

Worth checking out but it's A LOT of time in a utility-type van. Granted, there was a car race that caused a little traffic on the way up and back to San Francisco from Sonoma, but it was still a long trip. Ours ended up being 10 hours, which, considering the fact that we were only at 3 wineries for about 45 minutes each, lunch in Sonoma for an hour and Muir Woods for an hour, equates to quite a bit of time en-route. The tour guide did a great job, no other real issues, just a lot of time en route if you were staying at the hotel that got picked up first and dropped off last.
