Highlights
On a Half-Day Bike Tour, you'll enjoy the unique experience of biking through wine country and visiting a local winery while still finishing early enough to make other plans for your afternoon! You’ll join a small group led by a local, knowledgeable Tour Guide who will enhance your understanding of the valley’s history and the romantic vine-to-bottle process. This tour will include one stop at a local winery (tasting fees not included) Electric bikes make this tour fun for anyone who can ride a bike. Casual bikers will find they can confidently ride longer distances and cruise up hills with no problem. And experienced riders who are hoping for more exercise can turn the pedal-assist level down or completely off to get more of a workout. After your bike tour concludes in Yountville, you’re welcome to keep your bikes to continue exploring on your own. Your Tour Guide will be happy to recommend favorite backroads to explore.

Itinerary
After bike fitting & orientation (30 mins), your Tour Guide will lead you on a scenic ride alongside the vineyards. Tours are led at a casual pace. The emphasis is on enjoying the scenery and discovering a local winery along the way. The winery visit will last approximately 75 minutes with plenty of time to engage your tasting host and learn about the wine-making styles and farming practices. Wine tasting fees are not included; you will pay tasting fees directly at the wineries during your visit (fees may be waived with minimum purchase). After your tour concludes in Yountville, you’re welcome to keep your electric bikes to continue exploring on your own. Your Tour Guide will be happy to recommend favorite backroads to explore.
Monticello Vineyards is owned and managed by three generations of the Corley family. Patriarch Jay Corley, came to Napa Valley in 1969 seeking land to plant an estate vineyard. He chose a parcel in the southern end of Napa Valley to plant the first vines for Monticello Vineyards. Fifty years later, the Corley family manages five different vineyards across the Napa Valley. Sons Kevin, Chris and Stephen manage the winery. A third generation of Corleys is now graduating college and beginning to take active roles in the family business. Specific winery visits are subject to change due to availability. Wine tasting fees are not included in the price of the bike tour (some wineries may be waived with minimum purchase).

5Fun AM ride
Loved this ride through the vineyards. Our guide Santoro was really fun and very knowledgeable. Try it for a great time.
5Perfect bike ride through Napa
Such a fun ride with beautiful landscapes and a great guide !!
5The guide was...
The guide was enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable. The winery visited Hagafen was enjoyable and we purchased quality wine. The only downside is there were a lot of cars on this route compared to other wine tours I have rode with in different wine countries (Santa Ynez and Sonoma).
5Wine tasting and scenery were amazing
Wonderful experience. Guide was fantastic.
5Fun and informative
Our tour was informative and fun. The weather was perfect and the size of the group was just right. The wine tasting was located at a beautiful and charming winery and the wines were fabulous. We learned a lot and enjoyed each other’s company. Also, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention our guide, Michelle. She was fun and knowledgeable and easy going. Such a great way to see the Napa valley.
5Highlight of our trip!
The electric bike tour with wine tasting was the absolute highlight of our 3 day trip to Napa! Sterling was a fantastic guide. He had our bikes prepared when we arrived, was knowledgeable and entertaining, and perfectly unobtrusive when we wanted to catch up on our own. Highly recommend.

About Napa & Sonoma
Napa and Sonoma are California's best-known wine valleys north of San Francisco, a landscape of vineyards, oak hills, small towns and tasting rooms.
Napa Valley is a narrow valley about fifty kilometres long, running north from the town of Napa through Yountville, St Helena and Calistoga, with vineyards on the valley floor and hills on either side. Sonoma Valley lies to the west, over the Mayacamas range, with the historic Sonoma Plaza, a Spanish mission and the village of Glen Ellen. Both are known worldwide for wine, especially Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa and Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the cooler parts of Sonoma.
