Picked up from hotel around 8am for full day tour. Modern clean vehicle which accommodated 15 tourists. Driver gave a commentary during the day. Muir Woods stop was for approx an hour and driver kept everyone to time which meant we weren't waiting around afterwards. It was enjoyable but we've been to redwood forests before so nothing we hadn't seen previously. Then on to first vineyard for tasting and a wander around the stunning grounds. Stopped in Sonoma for lunch before visiting the last 2 vineyards. All vineyards were lovely locations and a separate tasting area had been set aside at each for the group so we avoided the crowds.
It was the highlight of our San Francisco trip.

This trip was a great experience. our guide was entertaining and full of information. He went out of his way to make sure that everyone in the group was having a good time. Meir woods is well worth the visit. The three wineries we visited ranged from very small to moderate sized, with a variety of wine styles. There was even some olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting at one. This was our first wine tour and it definitely made us want to go again.
