Your perfect day in the wine country day, and it won't break the bank. For those longing for an authentic, backroads Napa Valley or Sonoma wine country experience. We’ll bring it all together for you so you can relax and enjoy this magical place and make lasting memories. Our typical guest isn't necessarily a wine expert but is keen to learn a bit more about wine with a few other like-minded wine

adventurers. And you'll learn interesting tidbits about our local culture and winemaking along the way. Our tours are:
o Welcoming and fun
o Intimate, yet social
o Focused on hidden gem, backroads wineries that you might not find on your own
o Created by the best, most friendly, and knowledgeable tour guides

Small group join-in tours also include a tasty picnic lunch at a picturesque winery ($129-139). Tasting Fees are additional, but often refunded with wine purchase. Come see why we've earned more five-star ratings than any wine tour company in the U.S.

💍 She said yes… and our guide Chris said, “Hang on, I’ve got this!” 🥂
A surprise proposal turned into a mock ceremony right here in wine country—complete with a makeshift officiant collar and a whole lot of love.
Huge congrats to this beautiful couple! 💕

(And major props to Chris for leaning into the moment and making it unforgettable—we’re lucky to have him. 🙌)

Veraison! When the grapes stop growing and start maturing (can you relate? 😜) It's so fun to watch them change, berry-by-berry, from green to purple and from green to gold. Come see for yourself!
