It was a great expedition at Sonoma and Napa Valley. A great experience to live if you just have one day at SF. The bus was super clean, they gave us water. The tourist guy was super kind during the whole trip.

James was absolutely a joy. He was detail, professional and caring. His lightheartedness and jokes made it very comfortable. Each stop was more exciting then the next. We can't wait to do it all over again with more family members.

Amazing Wine Tour

Stephanie_S, Feb 2026

Great tour. Had a great variety of wines and the history of the area was incredible.By our tour guide Grady

Horrible Ride

Kathy_T, Dec 2025

The wineries and tour guide were all great What wasn’t great was the van used for transport. To say it was a bumpy ride is an understatement. The van definitely needs work on suspension it felt like you were hitting a pot hole at least every 15 seconds at one point I went airborne You couldn’t even rest your arm on window because it kept getting slammed. You couldn’t even type on your phone because yours hands were being knocked off phone . Words can’t describe how horrible the ride actually was. I did take a 3 minute video of the sound (slam slam slam) just to show people because without it you just can’t understand how bad it was. I would like the owner of the company to take the same ride Please take your van in for repair that’s a part of owning a business. Would def not recommend if there is a chance you could get same van

Pleasant and affordable!!! Great way to learn about Napa!

Andrea_L, Nov 2025

It was very organized, stopped at all the beautiful sights along the way to Napa. We learned about the history of the towns along the way. The tour guide was very kind and personable. Fellow travelers were wonderful too. Bus has windows on the ceilings to really take in the beautiful scenery. The wineries were beautiful and the staff at each were so inviting and kind. I would recommend this over and over again. Easy way to stay safe and enjoy the vino!

Good trip to wine country

Anne_C, Nov 2025

Wonderful half day visit to wine country. Two wine producers were very different in the experience given but both good. Reason for only 3 stars is my full day trip was cancelled without prior notice when I arrived at 8:30 so they put me on the half day trip, 4 hours later

Exceptional and gratifying.

Frances_U, Nov 2025

It was a wonderful experience and the tour driver made it exceptionally enjoyable. All the wineries visited were amazing and the wine all tasted great.

Wine!!

Catherine_N, Nov 2025

Patrick kept things lively and fun. Great way to be introduced to Napa and Sonoma! The smallish group was perfect and just the right amount of time at each venue.

Fun in Napa

Lea_D, Oct 2025

Excellent day visiting 3 beautiful vineyards. We had so much fun with our driver Patrick he did a fabulous job.

Nice

Fun wine tour Napa and Sonoma

michaelbrooksprotrav, Aug 2025

Overall it was a good tour some guest were a little stand off ish but that’s not Viator’s fault. I wish there was an opportunity to see some other brands I am familiar with

The Best Birthday Celebration A Girl Could Ever Hope For And More!!!

Lorna_Y, Aug 2025

Great experience!

Sarah_B, Aug 2025

This was a great introduction to the Napa/Sonoma area. There are hundreds of vineyards to choose from, and this tour has selected three great ones. There are plenty of tastes to be had, with ample time for lunch in the middle of the day. Driver was great and offered some insight to the San Francisco area as we drove north at the start of the tour.

Terrible bus driver. Wineries were nice but an hour from each other.

Andrew_b, Aug 2025

It’s fine given you research the wineries and see if you’d actually be interested. Two wineries were an hour away, passing by hundreds of others. We had a terrible bus driver that constantly rambled about his own personal nonsense. Didn’t allow phones to be used on the bus. He seriously talked nonsense pointing out things like sheep and trees.

Fun and delicious day

Anna_L, Jul 2025

We had a great day, we especially loved the Madonna winery and the Napa Cellar. Darlene from Napa Cellars was entertaining and keen to share her knowledge and passion for the Napa wine and region.

Good driver, take snacks

Laura_S, Jul 2025

The driver was great, we had a great time with Steve who was very knowledgeable and kept us right on time. The bus was a little cramped but still nice. Take some snacks in case you get peckish, there are opportunities to buy and take food on the road so take advantage. We started getting hungry on the way from the third winery and it helps to soak up the alcohol.

Very good

MARI_J, Jun 2025

Very good experience, we had a good time. We loved all the wines we tasted. We learned alot of information about how they make the win and the way they store it.

Martha_A, Jun 2025

3 great wineries. The staff was knowledgeable. We were given multiple tastes of both red and white and sweet and dry. Great variety

Incredible wine tour

pfv5, Jun 2025

Loved the wine tour and our guide Vlad! The information he shared about the region as well as his local recommendations for food and sightseeing are perfect. The wineries we visited were fantastic and it was so nice to have someone else driving s very new air conditioned coach bus. Only thing I would recommend doing is to hit the bathroom before arriving at the bus. There is not a local bathroom to use and the first stop isn’t until 10am.

So much fun!

Dawn_H, May 2025

Our guide Vlad was so much fun. Great stories and information while traveling to our wineries. The wineries chosen were excellent. I would recommend!

Small vineyard visits

DavidMichael_R, May 2025

Vineyards are small and family owned and not ones they may be familiar with, but still worth a visit

Good time 3/14/25

Kevin_T, Mar 2025

Good time with very nice informative driver. We felt the Madonna winery was the best of the 3 we went to. 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.

Excellent trip, shuttle service driver was awesome, we visited beautiful places. Very pleasant experience.

Napa Valley!!

Kristin_C, Feb 2025

Great day! Three wineries and time for lunch in Sonoma. One of the original wineries changed but three we went to were amazing.

What a Ride Woo Woo

Trevor_C, Feb 2025

We were a party of 2 and no-one else had booked so we were pleased when the trip went ahead. Our driver and guide (Laura?) was fantastic. Provided information along the route and was friendly and knowledgeable. The scenery was outstanding and Laura knew some great spots for photo opportunities. Visited 3 vineyards and we were given a great selection of wines at each stop. Spent roughly an hour at the venues, very relaxed. Enjoyed all 3. Be prepared for a long day and eat well at lunchtime. Great day, lots of fun. Do it if you can.

Great experience!!

Tom_W, Dec 2024

Grady, our tour guide was the best. Informative, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to spend the day with. Great wine tasting experience.

Deborah_R, Dec 2024

We had an amazing day. James did such a great job as our tour guide and bus driver. He made sure that we had a great time and gave us so much information about the areas that we traveled through on our way to Napa Valley and Sonoma. We had great service at all three stops that we made. Each one did a great job making sure we enjoyed our time with them.

Rainy day extravaganza

Ronald_B, Nov 2024

Perfect way to spend a rainy day. Driver, Steve, was safe and informative. Wineries/tasting rooms were unique and fascinating + great wines and fun new friends from Norway and the Philippines

Great wine. Terrible transportation.

Todd_G, Oct 2024

The wines and wineries were great. The van used to transport us was terrible. The ride was incredibly rough. My back still hurts.

Amazing tour

dcma42523, Sep 2024

I had an amazing time. To hear about the history of the wine companies and to experience the wine was a joy.

Great time with Grady!

candiceanger101, Mar 2024

Wow! What a great day! I had Grady as my driver and he was the BEST! Such a sweet man! It was just me on the tour and he showed me around so well and was so friendly. The wineries were good that we went to my personal fave was Sutter Home. I would recommend this tour!
