Napa and Sonoma Wine Country Full-Day Tour from San Francisco

1.Napa and Sonoma Wine Country Full-Day Tour from San Francisco

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,455 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $165Our pick

Spend 8 to 9 hours crossing the Golden Gate Bridge, tasting at three changing Napa and Sonoma wineries, and enjoying free time in Sonoma Plaza. Guides such as Don, Debbie, Thomas, and Rick are noted for strong commentary, though the full-size coach and changing winery schedule require some flexibility.

“Enjoyable tour visiting 3 wineries. Understand that this tour is on a full sized coach with the driver giving commentary along the way. No problem with that but you don’t get the more personal experience that you do on a smaller bus. That said, our driver was very good.”
