Top California Day Trips

It was a perfect way to experience Joshua Tree in a short time and if you don't want much physical exertion. There were a number of stops along the way that gave you great views of the park. Our tour guide Eddie, was informative and helpful. The tour lasted the full 5 hours.

We had a great tour and a great guide. Frank was very knowledgeable and fun! We took some great walks and showed all the really amazing rock formations etc. We loved the vista he took us to where we could see the San Andres Fault, it was on my bucket list! We had a great time!

Scott was great and very patient. Maybe too patient. The tour had chronically late passengers, which shortened the visit to Pebble Beach Golf. The main reason we booked the tour. A piece of advice, plan a restroom stop on the 2 1/2 hour drive back. My husband left his phone on the bus at departure and Scott was kind enough to turn around.

My sister and I had the best time on our tour! We love wine tasting and this was exactly what we wanted. We got picked up right at our hotel and had a fun group of 6 to spend the day with. Peter, our guide, was great to be around and knowledgeable. The wineries had beautiful views and generous pours with a unique variety of wines. Everyone we met was friendly and accommodating. This was well worth the money to be able to visit multiple wineries without worrying about driving and navigating ourselves. The lunch that was provided was also delicious. This tour was worth every penny and was one of the best parts of our trip to California.

Our experience aboard the Napa Valley Wine Train exceeded every expectation. From the moment we stepped aboard, the atmosphere was elegant, relaxing, and full of charm. The scenic views of Napa Valley's beautiful vineyards created the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable experience. What truly stood out was the food. Every course was beautifully presented, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The flavors were exceptional, and it was clear that great care went into every detail of the meal. From the appetizers to dessert, each bite was a culinary delight that complemented the overall luxury experience. The staff provided outstanding service throughout the journey, making us feel welcomed and well cared for. The combination of breathtaking scenery, exceptional dining, and first-class hospitality made this a bucket-list experience that was well worth it. If you're looking for a unique way to experience Napa Valley, the Napa Valley Wine Train is a must. We created memories that will last a lifetime and can't wait to return.

This was the best choice we made our entire trip! Erik is a top-tier driver and made great recommendations for lunch. We got to hear about the area as we drove through to different wineries too. This was absolutely an 11/10 experience that we will book again next time we are in wine country!

Thoroughly enjoyable experience despite the weather being cold and grey. Our Skipper Michael and his first mate Ryan looked after us very well and made sure we were warm enough by providing rugs. They gave us lots of interesting chat and the two hours went very quickly. Only negative being that the advertising only says that boat leaves from Pier 39. Well, Pier 39 is huge and 2-sided and it would have helped greatly to have been told which dock it left from.

It was a lovely day with a great group of people! The seating setup in the bus was very comfortable and facilitated conversation and interaction with the other guests. The chosen vineyards were all superb. Our driver was very friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend this tour!
