5VW wine country
Great tour. Love the VW van. Our guide Caio was excellent. I highly recommend the tour.
5Great trip worth the time & $
Do it! This tour from SF to Sonoma was worth the time and the money. The wineries were great, our guide, Caio, was friendly, fun and knowledgeable, and the day was an overall great experience!!
5Worth it!
Wonderful trip to 3 wineries in Sonoma! Caio was a great guide and the bus was a wonderful throwback vehicle. Highly recommend
5Great day out
We had a great day out. Jim was an excellent guide, lots of local history and information on the drive out to the wineries
5Great tour with a great guide
Caio was an incredible guide from the moment he picked us up! He was welcoming, full of fun facts, and made us feel right at home in San Francisco. We stopped at the Golden Gate Bridge and then went to three wineries, each with their own unique selection and vibe. The hosts at the winery were all great as well and we could tell that Caio made a great impression on them as well. We would certainly do this tour again and loved our day in Poppy the VW Bus!
5Great wine, stunning locations and a fantastic tour guide
Fantastic tour of the sonoma valley with Caio. Caio was an excellent driver and kept us well informed as we went along the tour. All 3 wineries provided a great experience with plenty of wine for the tasting sessions. Each tasting session ranged from $20-$30 with discounts available when purchasing wine. Stunning locations, great company and a professional tour guide. Top marks to Caio and the team.

About San Francisco
San Francisco crowds steep hills onto a peninsula between the Pacific and its bay, with cable cars, the Golden Gate Bridge and colourful neighbourhoods.
The Golden Gate Bridge spans the strait at the mouth of the bay, often wrapped in fog, and walking or cycling across it is a classic. Boats cross to Alcatraz, the former island prison, while Fisherman's Wharf is known for seafood and the sea lions that bask on the docks of Pier 39. The Ferry Building is a food lover's market.
Top-ranked sights in San Francisco: Golden Gate Bridge, Union Square, San Francisco Chinatown.
