Marc, our guide for the day, added so much to the experience. He was attentive, funny, and so informative. From history of the San Francisco area to wine industry in Sonoma and Napa, we learned a lot. The small family wine makers spent time with us, allowing us to really learn about their wines, and enjoy them. The personal touch was something we haven’t gotten at some of the larger wineries.
Shout out to the friends we made spending a fun day on this tour!

Tour was so much fun! Anthony our guide was amazing!!
Was really impressed by the choice of vineyards.
Justina_K, May 2026
Our Sonoma wine tour was an absolute dream—easy 5 stars! Exploring Sonoma County was already stunning, but our guide, Marc, truly made the experience unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region, the wines, and each stop along the way, but what really stood out was how fun and personable he was. He kept the energy up all day while making sure everything ran smoothly and on time.
Each winery we visited was beautiful and unique, with generous tastings and amazing views. We visited Peter Cellars, Séamus Wines, and B.R. Cohn! Peter Cellars was my favorite because of the four golden retrievers! Marc gave great background at each stop without overwhelming us, and he made sure we had time to relax, enjoy the wine, and take it all in.
The whole day felt seamless, well-organized, and special from start to finish. If you’re thinking about doing a Sonoma wine tour, I can’t recommend this experience enough, especially if you get Marc as your guide! 🍷

We had an amazing time with Anthony on our tour to the wineries in Sonoma. We went to three different excellent wineries and had anywhere from 3-5 different wines at each. The wineries are cool, but what really made the experience amazing was Anthony and his jokes/stories. The drive was pretty quick from SF and the van is comfortable. I would highly recommend this tour and so would my friend!
Jacqueline_V, Apr 2026
Really enjoyed the tour. Mark was a great guide with great recommendations for lunch and later for dinner. Loved the 2 winery locations and wines and the third which was a tasting room and winemaker. Great day, not crowded. Just the right amount of time. Plenty of wine. :)

We took this wine tour while visiting the Bay area for our wedding anniversary trip as we wanted to get a glimpse of the Sonoma/Napa valley area. This tour was very fun and informative. We went with a small group of 10 and everyone was friendly. Our tour guide Anthony was very accommodating and entertaining. We went to 3 wineries and we enjoyed the dry red wines at Peter Cellars Winery the most. The ambiance/ grounds at B R Cohn Winery were absolutely beautiful and the wines at Homewood were a refreshing fruit forward spin on wines that would go well with comfort foods. I would recommend this tour to others.
Kenneth_M, Apr 2026
The tour guide was the owner/operator. He knows some of the winery owners. BR Cohn was the medium size winery with good wines. Redder the better was good too. Peter Cellars was good but 1 of the bottles that I bought did not have the foil cap on the coork!
Jaime_L, Mar 2026
Our guide Anthony took us to three unique and beautiful wineries with great tasting wines, and all along our route entertaining us with humorous conversations. Highly recommended.
Luis_T, Mar 2026

Howard_R, Mar 2026
Excellent day touring boutique wineries in Sonoma. Our guide Anthony was knowledgeable, engaging and entertaining. Would highly recommend this tour. We are novice wine drinkers and learned a great deal.
Alyssa_L, Mar 2026
This was an amazing tour. Mark was knowledgeable, entertaining, and on overall great guide! We loved the wineries that we visited, and we would book again through this company!
Ryan_R, Mar 2026
Anthony was a fantastic guide! I would not go on an excursion to Sonoma with anyone else. An amazing Sunday.
Karen_P, Mar 2026
Right from the pickup, I knew that it was going to be a fun day out! Antony was so enthusiastic, engaging and entertaining throughout the day. His tour-guiding skills were exceptional and educational and left us wanting more. The wineries and wines presented were quite different which was a bonus too. The only slight negative I would say is that they were Red-heavy, but still worth tasting. The lunch suggestion was another bonus and I would highly recommend Nino and his bus trip to Sonoma.
lisa_D, Mar 2026
What an amazing day! This tour is a MUST. Nino was the most fabulous host/driver for our group and the people on our bus… they absolutely made our day. The vineyards we visited were outstanding. Honestly with the wines and the e people, this was THE best trip I’ve done in a very long time!
Kelly_M, Feb 2026
Great guide, in Paul, knowledgeable, personable and fun. Made everyone feel welcome and part of the group.
loribeth97, Feb 2026
My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Mark, was excellent and very entertaining. We had a group of 5 and it was perfect. We visited 3 different wineries and also had time for exploring and lunch in Sonoma plaza. We also stopped at a lookout point and got great pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge. Pick up and drop off was at our hotel. I would absolutely recommend this tour to everybody and will book with them when I visit in the future.
Parker_B, Feb 2026
I cannot recommend the Great Wine Tour enough with Edge of World Tours. Request Anthony as your tour guide if you want the most knowledgeable and laugh filled experience. I can’t wait to do this tour again.
Lillian_N, Feb 2026
Antony was amazing a gave us a great tour. All the wineries were great and informative! Would recommend!!
Helen_S, Feb 2026
Picked up from our hotel and driven by Anthony our very friendly and informative guide for the day.
We visited 3 different wineries for tastings and had a lunch stop after the first tasting - given plenty of information along the way.
Very informative and enjoyable trip -would definitely recommend.
Anne_A, Jan 2026
Thoroughly enjoyed our Sonoma wine tour! Anthony was an excellent guide and we loved traveling with a small group. Look forward to taking another tour when we return to California!
Lisa_H, Jan 2026
I was in town for work and took the tour solo. Antoni really made the day. We all joked around and he has great wit and made everyone feel comfortable. His running commentary is hilarious. You can tell he really wants everyone to have the best experience. You’ll get “off the beaten path” winery experiences. We had time in Sonoma in the middle of the day for lunch and walking around. The restaurants and shops were lovely. I loved the size of the tour. Everyone was incredibly nice
roly_f, Jan 2026

Stacy_O, Jan 2026
Antony was an excellent tour guide. He’s knowledgeable about the area and about wine, and friendly and entertaining. The vineyards e visited were excellent, and the hosts at each spent lots of time teaching us about their wines.
Elizabeth_L, Jan 2026
Great trip from start to finish! Our tour guide was awesome and super well-versed in the vinyards, regions, and wine. Highly recommended!!
Anu_M, Jan 2026
Anthony was an excellent tour guide and bus driver. He also entertained us throughout the journey. The wineries we went to were great - the first and last really blew us away. Peter sellers was excellent, we enjoyed the wineries where we weren’t just spoken to but were taken on an interactive journey with. Big shout out to Peter’s golden retrievers and also the wine. In addition, Shelly at the final winery was excellent thanks so much!
Highly recommend this for small groups and frankly anyone. We had a lovely stop for lunch and plenty of time to sample the wines.
Raymundo_A, Dec 2025
Great tour. Anthony was an excellent guide, and the stops are thoughtfully chosen to provide diverse experiences.
Tim_C, Dec 2025
