Great winery tour away from the normal Napa options with redwoods! - Great tour - visited Korbel Winery, Armstrong Redwoods and Russian River Vineyards. Korbel tasting included a tour which had interesting history of Russian River Valley. They also have a shop/deli onsite to grab lunch (not included in price). Armstrong (in my opinion) is better than Muir - less crowded and more jurassic feel. And RRV has great wines. Overall a great tour and good value. Also our driver Patrick was fantastic - good knowledge, funny, but left us alone at the end of the day to rest on the way home.

Love this wine tour - We had a great tour guide! He made the ride to wine country fun and played great music. He walked us in to our reserved wine tours and set us up at each location. We felt taken care of.

Lovely Experience! - I made friends from around the world on this fun, little tour. We stopped at the Korbel Winery and tasted the most delicious California champagnes, which are not your typical grocery store variety. They also shared the rich history of the winery, dating back to the 1800s. We then hiked a little over 2 miles to see the oldest tree in the redwoods - the Colonel Anderson, which is over 1,400 years old - before visiting a delightful boutique winery, the Horse & Plow, for delicious Pinot Gris and charcuterie. It was simply lovely and I'd highly recommend it. No food is included, so grab some snacks to take along for the ride.

Traveling Solo - Debi is amazing... she makes you feel relaxed and is very knowledgeable about the sites and she points out other important things along the way. I travel mostly by myself and the didn't make me feel different which is nice. Be prepared to enjoy yourself and walk... I love to walk and walking among the redwoods was awesome.

Amazing experience - We signed up for this tour because the price was reasonable to be able to experience wineries and the redwoods and it didn’t disappoint. We got very lucky and see the only two people on the tour. Our guide told us it’s a fairly new tour. Well worth the money. They only thing I would suggest is giving more time at Korbel so we could have done the tour.

Great Day! - Our trip to the Napa Valley with #Big Bus Tours was one of the best tours we’ve ever done for the price. As an added bonus we were the only passengers on the tour. Our driver/guide, Grady made the whole day a pleasure; his commentary was very informative and we thoroughly enjoyed his dignified, humorous company. He managed the whole day perfectly as he drove us through SF to #Korbel Winery, Armstrong Woods and #Russian River Winery. We loved the whole day! Thanks, Grady!!

Cheers! - There were three stops! The tasting at Korbel was excellent. However, I wish we could have toured the cellar. I recommend eating at the delish deli. Amazing! The Armstrong redwoods was a great stop as well! The horse and plow a little disappointing. It was cool as they produce hard apple cider but the tasting was uneventful. I thought on the tour I would have gone to a vineyard with grapes and learned about the process and sampled from those harvested grapes but the tour was not that.
