What To Expect

Let your guide handle the driving and relax as you sip your way through California’s wine country. After leaving the city of San Francisco in the morning, settle into a luxury coach equipped with onboard amenities including reclining seats. Hear tales of Spanish missionaries and Gold Rush fortune seekers from your guide as you cruise across the Golden Gate Bridge and through the rolling green hills and pastures of Sonoma Valley.

Your first stop is Roche Winery. Sip different varietals in the tasting plaza and enjoy a walking tour of the Roche family’s Tipperary vineyards. Your host will lead you through the winery, including a sampling of their latest vintage right from their barrels.

Continue to the world-famous Napa Valley for a tour and tasting at Madonna Estate, a family-run winery that produces organic wines in the acclaimed Carneros winemaking region.

Indulge your appetite with a stop for lunch (own expense) at Sonoma Square Plaza, one of the largest plazas in California, and pick from multiple charming restaurants.

Under the sun in the Valley of the Moon, BR Cohn Winery has been making small lot, vineyard-designated wines since 1984. Nestled between Sonoma Mountain and the Mayacamas Mountain range in scenic Glen Ellen, the winery offers an inviting, relaxed environment for discovering new wine.

Back on the coach, savor the late afternoon sun and your wine-induced glow on the return drive to San Francisco. Enjoy a quick photo stop at the Golden Gate Bridge before getting dropped off at Fisherman’s Wharf or Union Square in San Francisco.

I really enjoyed the tour. We stopped at three wineries, Roche, Madonna Estates both in Sonoma and B.R.Cohn in Napa. Each took us through the wine making process and we tasted several amazing wines while taking in the sights of the beautiful rolling hills. I wish I could recall our tour guides name he was phenomenal he shared alot of information in reference to various points of call along our drive which in itself was a plus. Our trip concluded around 6p after touring the winery and lunch in Napa. I for one had a great time and would recommend to anyone.

Bianca_B, May 2023
This was a guided tour in which a tour guide made it simple for everyone to understand. We drove to various locations and made a few stops along the way. We stopped at three wineries in which they were all very generous with their tasting. I highly recommend this tour before any of the tour if you were visiting San Francisco.
Great trip
Sheela_B, May 2023
The 3 vineyards chosen were different and provided a good variety. Thomas had a lot of worldly wisdom to impart and gave a lot of information as we traveled.

Madison_G, May 2023
Such a lovely tour! Danilo and Gary were the best guide and driver! We stopped at 3 wineries - Ru Vango, Madonna Estate, and Sutter Home. We loved Ru Vango and Madonna Estate. Would have preferred to visit another of the smaller wineries in the area, but the gardens at Sutter Home were beautiful. Perfect tour for couples or friend groups. Would highly recommend.

The whole experience was amazing. Our tour guide was entertaining and personable. It’s a great way to be able to see the beautiful Wayne country without having to drive and you get to taste some excellent wines from some smaller family owned vineyards would definitely recommend to anybody wanting to do a Sonoma NAPA tour.

Great day with Mr Chianti as the bus driver! Lovely wineries with a great lunch stop! We had plenty of time at each stop- maybe too much time as I was a lone traveller it felt like a long time between drinks.
