Muir Woods Tour wine country tour review with a side trip to Monterey and Carmel:
My mother recently had her 80th birthday. Having lost her husband, my father, 6 months ago, my sister Andrea C. and I decided to take my mother on a trip to California to refresh her mind and body.
She is recovering from a stroke.
She had never seen California before. We live on the East Coast. We wanted to see the redwoods in Muir Woods National Park , the pacific ocean , the wine country to visit some wineries in Napa , the golden gate bridge, the city of San Francisco and all the wonders found in San Francisco Bay area.
We only had 4 days to see all these sights in California ....what to do?
How do we make sure my mother is safe, comfortable, relaxed and enjoying these sights?
Luck led to meet Adam at Golden Horizon Travel and tours. I spoke with Adam by phone, he understood our travel needs, and we arranged a two day private tour comning muir woods and the wine country, San Francisco, Carmel and Monterey.
My family can not say enough good things about Adam and Golden Horizon tours. He was extremely kind, protective, proactive, knowledgeable from history to articulture, multi-lingual, musical, humorous, interesting, a safe driver, great company, polite, a great teacher.... and the list can continue until all superlatives in the English language are exhausted. My mother is still talking about the trip to San Francisco Bay Area and how perfect it was even with the recent fires during our trip. Adam knew how to outsmart the smoke and the traffic. We saw everything we hoped for, and more without the trip being hectic or exhausting. The pace was comfortable and we learned and experienced with joy.
The tour was customized by Golden Horizon Travel to us and our unique situation. Adam did everything to be at my mother's arm at every door step and incline. He even borrowed a golf cart from a golfer at Pebble Beach in order to give my mother a ride, sparing her a steep, outside staircase.
We did not need to ask...he intuitively knew how to help and be "present" to our needs.
If you are considering a tour with Adam and Golden Horizon Travel.com , I hope you will make a reservation. You will not be disappointed and I will be happy to be a reference.
Thank you, Golden Horizon and Adam. My mother is still boasting to all about you.
Happy Travels
