Tour was great. Muir Woods was a nice start to the day and was fantastic. The winery tastings were excellent and we enjoyed the small wineries and the friendly hospitality during tastings. The stop at Hawk Hill on way way back at sunset topped off an incredible day. Mitch the tour guide was a HOOT. We had a great time and would go on it again!!! James K., 840, 09-2008
Muir Woods is amazing. for the Wine Portion, I would of preferred three different types of vineyards versus the two small ones. I was delighted that our Tour Guide did ask for any suggestions and we voiced up for Cline, which was awesome. Peggy H., 840, 09-2008
First winery visited gave us a 15-20 minute guide on grapes, wines, wine making and tasting. Very informative and funny. We learned a lot which made our visit to other wineries more enjoyable. Redwoods were awesome....could have spent a whole day there and not seen it all....so serene and peaceful!Sally F., 840, 08-2008
Excellent tour guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It was overall a very good experience. Seeing the smaller wineries made the experience memorable.Bruce M., 840, 08-2008
Overall the tour was good. It could have been more organized. Our tour guide Dillon was very nice & helpful. CONSTANCE G., 840, 08-2008
We absolutely loved our tour! Mitch was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Even though the van was packed, we enjoyed the experience and the people we shared it with. Thanks! Kira B., 840, 08-2008
I really loved the entire experience. It was the perfect blend of activities. Tim did a great job of giving us information about the sights and the area without it being a constant information barrage. I also liked the freedom of everyone being free to explore Sonoma on their own during lunch rather than all being herded like sheep to lunch together. I also thought Tim did an outstanding job in picking the three wineries we visited. Each had a distinctly different feel to it which made each tasting an interesting, unique experience. All told, it was a great experience and I'd highly recommend it.Jennifer L., 840, 07-2008

The tour was excellent, exactly what we expected in hindsight I would have liked longer than the hour we had in Muir Woods but that is personal preference.Joanne S., 826, 07-2008
We had a great time at each of the vineyards. The first we visited provided a great deal of information and education on how to read labels, differences in oak grain and alcohol content of the wine. It was a great set-up for the rest of our adventure, in which all was amazing. I will never forget the smell of the redwoods, magnificent!720 290 5258 R., 840, 06-2008
The tour was very pleasant and was exactly as described in the brochure. The wineries offered a large variety of tasting. Everyone was very nice and I would recommend this trip.Pat L., 840, 05-2008
Our Tour Guide, Tim, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He has a great sense of humor and made our trip very memorable. I like the fact that we had some flexibility as to going to the wine country first then to Muir Woods. That was Tim's suggestion and it worked out well because the woods weren't crowded at all so we got to enjoy them without too many other tourists. I also liked the diversity of wineries he took us to, but Paradise Ridge was the BEST!!Lora A., 840, 04-2008
Our tour guide, Jon, was AWESOME!!! He made the whole day so much more interesting. The winery tours were fun and informative. Learned so much more than had we gone on our own. Thanks for a wonderful day!Patrick W., 840, 04-2008
What a wonderful day. The redwood forest was fabulous and getting there first thing in the morning gave us some time to wander before other groups arrived and the school kids arrived. Also enjoyed the wine tasting. The small family wineries we went to were very personal and informative. A great day! Loved the stop at the Golden Gate Bridge lookout as it was a clear day!Roberta H., 840, 04-2008
We had a blast on this tour! Our guide was great and the activities exceeded our expectations!Lea S., 840, 03-2008
The tour was great, the driver was wonderful. A little pricey for what you get, but if convenience is worth it to you, then it's perfect. Kara c., 840, 10-2007
GREAT EXPERIENCE. MUIR WOODS ARE GREAT, BUT WEAR WARM CLOTHS AND WALKING SHIOES. ROBLEDO AND HOMEWOOD WINERY'S WERE GREAT. VERY FRIENDLY AND PERSONAL. CASTLE WAS LESS FRIENDLY AND THE WINE WAS NOT AS GOOD.
OVERALL A MUST DO EXPERIENCE.Sharon K., 840, 10-2007
The tour was as advertised. The guide was knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous. My wife and I enjoyed the experience.Chris T., 840, 10-2007
We really enjoyed the Muir Wood tour but the wine tours did not impress us - all were small companies with not a lot of different types of wines to offer to try - would have preferred at least one bigger winery so there would be a better variety for different types of palates. There were really no sweet wines. My husband and I prefer sweet wines and we were not able to purchase any to bring home since none of the places we visited hand any type of dessert wines. Very disappointed for a California tour.Cheryl E., 840, 09-2007
Exceptional sightseeing. Superb visit to Muir Woods. The wine tour was well worth while even though the cost of shipping back to UK was rather costly. It was an experience that everyone will enjoy.Bryan C., 826, 09-2007
This tour was wonderful because it was very non-commercialized. We never saw other tours at any of the small wineries that we visited.Eric M., 840, 08-2007
The tour and tour guide were fun and well-planned. Emily M., 840, 08-2007
Booked online from Australia and had no problems with any part of the tour ThanksRon M., 36, 07-2007
Great driver, alot of fun. Enjoyed the experience,great way to travel and see the sites.kelly h., 840, 06-2007
We had a wonderful time touring Muir Woods and the Sonoma wine country. Walking through the redwood forest was awe inspiring. We also enjoyed the scenic drive through the California countryside. And the wine tastings at several Sonoma wineries were both educational and delicious. The tour was one of the highlights of our trip to San Francisco. Judith S., 840, 06-2007
Very casual style suitable for inexperienced wine tasters.
The third stop was a delightful outlook with tasting charges not included in the price.
Muir Woods are great, could stay there longer.
The stops by the bridge and bay are pure whistle-stop photo opportunitiesJames H., 36, 05-2007
We enjoyed the amount of time given at Muir Woods. We had more then enough time to see all we wanted to see. The wine tour part was fun and light hearted making for a very enjoyable day.Marilyn P., 124, 04-2007
This tour was wonderful. Being in a 13 passenger van verses the large bus was so nice. The guide was so friendly and knowledgeable . Being in a small group he was able to stop places that were not listed if someone asked.He took us to wineries that we would have never found our self. I would go on this tour again If I was in the area during harvest time.Janice A., 840, 04-2007
Muir Woods was beautiful. wine tour was great and I liked the small winery, very quaint and one family owned. The van we were on was full to capacity and sitting arrangements luckily were ok with a good group of folks on our tour. I did not always sit with my friend who traveled with me. We changed up seats in order for everyone to get a chance to sit where they wanted.Lou N., u, 03-2007
Enjoyed the tour and the group we were with. As a person who had never been to the wine country, I would have enjoyed seeing at least one of the bigger winery operations instead of seeing three smaller, "mom and pop" type places. I also believed we would be actually touring the wineries along with the tastings, but we did not -- this was purely a tasting tour as far as the wineries went. I really enjoyed the time in Muir Woods and the time we were alloted was perfect to see the site. The three wineries we were able to see were carefully chosen by our guide in accordance with the palates of our group. The day was just long enough, and full of activity, and we thought the money we spent was well worth it. We were also able to purchase wine along the way which our friends and family enjoyed when we returned from the trip.Jenna J., 840, 03-2007
Our tour guide was great, friendly and helpful. We voted during the tour to change the planned excursion just a little bit because the day of our tour there was a special event planned in a town we were stopping for lunch in. Everyone had a great time, and the tour guide made a special stop so we could get some great pictures of the Bay.Travis M., 840, 03-2007
The combination of the Muir woods and wine tasting is a blast. This tour was much easier to keep up with than others around the same area and allowed individual input into the tours course. Other tours around the same area seemed to keep its guests on a vehicle more often than it allowed exploration. The adventure here made the trip exceptionally fun. Tim C., 840, 02-2007
I had a lot of fun on the Muir Woods/Sonoma Valley tour. Tour guide was very and informative and talked about a lot of interesting trivia about all of the places we went to. I would definitely go on this tour again.Sharon F., 840, 02-2007
