Wine Tasting Tour - All the winery’s were lovely. I learned a lot about the wine making process. Each place was different. All the staff were friendly and helpful and easy to chat with. Our bus drive was sweet and friendly. Only problem was the bus was small for taller people and there was no storage above Or below for storing the wine we bought.

The Experienece was Great - This Napa and Sonoma wine tour was an absolute dream! From the moment we stepped onto the bus, we were greeted with enthusiasm and a wealth of knowledge about the region. Our guide was incredibly informative, sharing fascinating insights into the winemaking process and the history of the area. The wineries we visited were truly exceptional. Each one offered a unique experience, from stunning vineyard views to passionate winemakers. The tastings were a delightful journey through a variety of flavors, and we discovered several new favorites.

Sonoma and Napa - Exciting trip with good visits. Visit 2 out of 3 very commercial. Would rather have a greater focus on production. The guide Marco was super good.

Napa Valley Tour - We had a group of 5 friends, ladies aged 30's & 40's. This is a wonderful tour to take. We had so much fun! We realized the tour was a little too long for our taste and also there were some children on the bus, which we did not realize that children could attend this tour. Other than that, it was a beautiful day of touring the wine country!

A full day enjoyed... - A full day enjoyed visiting three different wineries at Napa Valley. The stop for lunch at Sonoma was beautiful as well. James our driver was very insightful and nice. Perhaps a dive deeper into the wine making process at the wineries would have made it more interesting. Worth it.

Overall Nice Experience - Check in process was easy. For an hour drive it would have been nice to have access to a restroom. Did not leave on time due to others, but still arrived at a fairly decent time. Grady was a wonderful tour guide. I never felt rushed and he was accommodating to late stragglers, and needed bathroom breaks. Visited: Madonna, Sutter Home and Napa Cellars (which is not listed on Viator site). In actuality, a 4th stop could be included, as lunch was 1.5hrs. Overall a great day...with a few weeks, this could be a solid 5 start tour

Great wine, but overall super disappointed - Great experience traveling wine country and stopping at 3 of them for tastings! Had a great time exploring and taking in information about the wines we tasted! However we didn't expect the group environment to be what it was. From the beginning of our 8:30am tour there was a big group of a super loud party that would scream at the top of their lungs no exaggeration . It would only get louder and louder after every stop we made, we could barely hear what the driver was saying while driving around sf . I couldn't hear what my gf was saying and we were sitting right next to eachother. We booked this trip for a relaxing getaway and the entire time in the bus we would get everything but that. I would literally be covering my ears while this group in their mid 30's yelled and actually barked like animals the entire trip and it was super obnoxious and really disappointing. The other couples on the tour weren't like that and actually were really nice and offered to take pictures for us , and I doubt they enjoyed the super loud environment. If you want to get drunk and yell inside of a bus then this is the trip for you! If you want a relaxing getaway with your partner for the day then I would steer far away from this specific tour company. Like I mentioned we loved the locations and drivers knowledge but I wouldn't be able to recommend this place to anyone let alone my close friends/family.

Driver ruined experience. - Awful. Your guide told everyone to be quiet on the bus ride, thinking he was going to give some commentary. But he just mumbled a lot of nonsense and gave a lot of political views that were not exactly appropriate for a group setting. Stopped for a quick break by the bridge and he refused to let us take any pictures - only stop for washroom. When we didn’t need to use the washroom and tried to go to other side of parking lot for pictures he yelled at us to come back. Continuous rambling throughout the entire trip and telling people to be quiet so they could listen to the ramblings got exhausting quick and honestly ruined the day. The wines were not great. One stop was good - Madonna. One stop was so terrible it was barely drinkable. Not exactly the best quality wineries on this tour.
