An excellant way to see the wine district of Sothern California - Our tour guy was an absolute gem. Sharing his knowledge without self-promotion. The tour started on time and finished with a final cheer from all those on board.

Fantastic Wine Tour! You cannot miss it! - The best tour ever! Jeffrey was our tour guide and he was the MOST fun! I loved his taste in Indonesian Hip Hop (that’s an in-joke, there was no Hip Hop, don’t worry). I had one of the best days of my entire trip on his tour. Excellent wine, excellent company. I even had an English muffin from the place Oprah gets hers from en route to the Wineries. Even though it was a rainy day, it was still so much fun. Shout out to Brenna and Natalie too at the Wineries in Napa and Sonoma who were so lovely. Would 100% recommend.

Awesome experience! - This was the best tour! We left at 8am from Fisherman’s Warf and were returned to the same place st 16:50. We visited 2 vineyards for formal tastings where we got to walk around the facilities and see the processes involved which was really interesting! Jeffry was an amazing host and was full of interesting information. We had a 2h break for lunch in Somoma Plaza. The whole trip was very well planned and executed.

Wine tasting and food experience - This is the best way to explore both Sonoma and Napa Valley. We had an awesome guide who was able to tell us everything about wine country and wine tasting. We had two food experiences and we had three wine tastings.
This tour does NOT include tasting fees, which was great, because we ended up buying wine which waived all the fees.

Girls Trip to Napa - Had a very good experience traveling with viator tour. Driver and guide had sufficient knowledge on wineries. Had an awesome experience of visiting and tasting wine. I would suggest this tours for anyone interested in wine tasting however each winery charges 35$ per person apart from package tours.
Suggest to visit during Spring to enjoy more.

Good tour, average vineyards. - It is a good tour. The tour guide friendly and open to help. Have water and snacks for the road. The vineyards we visited were average. I expected more. They served small portions of each wine in the same glass with no explanation of the grape or wine but the history of the vineyard and the awards they have won. We made a stop in Sonoma square for lunch and optional tastings. It was the best part of the tour for me. I got Highway 12 tasting, great experience.
