Our tour guide Paul was so much fun and accommodating. We had a special engagement on our trip which really made it fun and special! Our whole tour group was great! The wineries all were very good with each place giving us a nice personal experience. We really like the wines served at every place we went. Paul was so great at telling us about all the sights along the way and sharing his wealth of knowledge. We also loved his Scottish sense of humor!

Mark was great! What a fun and informative day. We bought a case of wine from two of the wineries and some other fun things at the last one.
Anthony was the best tour guide. I travelled solo and he created an inclusive environment and had a blast. The wineries we went to were so great!
Fantastic day with our tour guide Anthony, Great wine tastings at each venue, lovely lunch in Sonoma Valley and a lovely ferry ride back to San Francisco. Highly recommend.
The wonderful quality of the wine may be missing. Just not the encouraging event we were hoping for. The first one was by far the best. The other two were seemingly an inconvenience to the winery. I wouldn’t do this tour again. It was good, but no where near outstanding.

Hi Garry,
Thanks for taking the time to review your experience, I’m very sorry you did not enjoy the second and third wineries.
I’m surprised to hear that you were made to feel like an inconvenience, that is certainly not the experience we aspire to and our winery partners are selected in part because they typically create a friendly, pleasant experience. It is very out of character…

We had THE BEST time. Anthony was an amazing tour guide. He was fun, entertaining, knowledgeable of wine AND San Francisco/ Sonoma county. This tour is so well prepared. We had a wine tasting in 3 vineyards, Homewood, Seamus and B.R. Cohn. All in the perfect order, allowing us to know so much about wine and the history of Sonoma and their wines. Anthony knew so much about historic landmarks in Sausalito and in Sonoma. He was very patient, kind and funny. Always making sure we had a good time. We had an amazing time. Can't wait to book another tour with Edge of the world tours! to Muir woods maybe next time
Great way to see the wine country.No worries about driving.Our driver was top notch and very knowledgeable.
Anthony was a funny and amazing tour guide. The vineyards were full of grapes, delicious wines and ambiance. The day did not feel rushed at all but still saw so much of Sonoma
Best tour ever ! Our guide Marc was beyond knowledgeable, entertaining, and truly made the experience fun!
Amazing experience. Our tour guide had a huge amount of knowledge about San Francisco and Napa/Sonoma and loved the smaller wineries we visited. The smaller group experience made it feel more intimate and loved getting to know the others in our group. I would absolutely recommend this tour.
Great experience: delicious, informative and fun! Guide Marc was knowledgeable, humorous and thoughtful. The schedule was well paced and relaxing while still moving along to cover so much in one day. Peter Cellars was a definite highlight!!! Do it!!!

Thank you for reviewing your day, I’m so happy you had good time!

Anthony was an excellent tour guide. He gave us anecdotes and fun facts about everything we drove by. Also encouraged a social and bonding vibe with our group without making things awkward. He was super knowledgeable about San Francisco, Sausalito, and Sonoma valley. The wineries were such unique choices with great variety and we enjoyed all three so much. Our tour was framed as a kind of past, present, and future of vineyards which was super cool. Tried some of the best wines I ever had, and learned a lot about the process of winemaking and lots about grapes! Anthony also made sure we ate at great restaurants and had really cool experiences when we stopped in downtown Sonoma, and always told us where bathrooms were so we didn’t waste our time searching around. The option to end in Sausalito was sooo fun, a nice dinner and ferry ride to end the day. This tour was full of laughs and great wine! 10/10 recommend.

We’re thrilled you enjoyed the day, thank you for the review!

It's a good experience for wine -naives and connoisseurs. The atmosphere is light, informative, and fun in general. Anthony is hillarious and a great driver/ tour guide/ photographer. The choice of wineries are spot on. I took my aunt who had wine tasting in Italy, could not stop talking about how much she enjoyed this one way better. She was so happy. I would highly recommend.

Thanks for touring with us Tanya, and for taking the time to offer your feedback!

Excellent day with Anthony. The drive to the vineyards was entertaining with lots of interesting facts and related stories along the way. Visiting the small boutique wineries was very informative as we met the owners and had a chance for detailed questions as well as sampling a great range of wines with lots of background and explanation. Lunch in Sonama was a nice break and an opportunity to see one of the areas of historic interest. Overall highly recommended.

Fun trip with Anthony, saw a few sites leaving City and then Sonoma small boutique wineries, educational and good wine. Small group was just right.
Our tour guide Anthony was fantastic. He was knowledgeably, professional, and funny. He had great stories and we visited three different style wineries with excellent wines.
Marc and his team are amazing! Super responsive and incredibly knowledgeable about the San Fran area and wine country. Marc was not only entertaining, but also very friendly and went out of his way to accommodate us. I would absolutely use his tour company for all future trips to San Fran. You should too!
Marc was a gracious host, who provided entertaining and educational sound bites throughout the entire journey. The itinerary was gracefully crafted and evident of local taste. Could not recommend a better host or experience for your Sonoma Valley Wine Tour.
Great driver/guide (Anthony) who was informative and entertaining. The 3 wineries were all very distinct from each other and the wines we sampled were all award winners.
Enjoyed the tour and met a few new friends in the process. Our tour guide was Marc and he was fantastic. Very outgoing and knowledgeable and gave us interesting information along the way. If you are in town for a short stay, this tour also checked the box by riding on the Golden Gate Bridge and pulling over for some pictures. This tour didn’t make us feel like we were on a timer and was very relaxed. Recommend and can’t go wrong with this tour.
Great and personalized tour. We had a private tour and the driver and guide gave a lot of useful information.
Mark was an awesome tour guide and was extremely welcoming and full of knowledge. He was funny and very pleasant, and we both enjoyed being with him all day. Mark made our one day in Sonoma wonderful and memorable- we will be back!!
Excellent!!! I am so happy that I booked this tour for me and some friends. Antony was our driver/guide and he was truly wonderful. He took us to 3 amazing vineyards where we met amazing people and learned so much about Sonoma. I would highly recommend this tour.
This was by far THE best tour I’ve been on! Catya was an amazing tour guide! I was the first pick up and she welcomed me right away. She was very knowledgeable about the city and gave us all kinds of good information as we made our way to the wineries. I had THE best group of people who made this tour EVERYTHING! Each winery was great. The best was the last one because it gave that true winery feel. But, Sharon at the first one gave me the most information about wine and she was the most personable. Cat even gave great tips and suggestions for where to eat lunch. I had so much fun I was sad it was over.
Anja was absolutely incredible and made our wine tour unforgettable. She was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and so accommodating throughout the entire experience. You could tell she genuinely cared about making sure everyone had a great time. She took us to amazing vineyards we never would’ve found on our own and shared so much insight about the wines, the region, and each stop along the way. Her energy was warm, fun, and professional, and she made the whole day feel seamless and special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend Anja to anyone looking for an amazing wine tour experience!
The perfect mix of guided tour and fun! The whole experience was so fun and easy, Marc made the whole day great with lots of options and great wine!
Awesome small group experience. You definitely get private tour feel. We had Marc as our guide, driver and entertainer. He was a lot of fun to spend the day with. His personal connections with the wineries definitely made the day less commercial and more personal.
Mark is funny, very knowledgeable and a gracious host who got all the team together to participate! Will recommend unreservedly!
We had an absolutely amazing day with great wine and a knowledgeable, witty guide. Each winery had it's own charm. 10 from 10!
Great choice of boutique wineries, great guide and small group much appreciated.
Flexibility, had the chance to spend time in Sausalito also.
I had such an amazing time in the wine country! We had a great group of individuals traveling in the van. Had so much fun interacting with Paul and others on this short but amazing trip
