Overall excellent tour. Driver/guide was very good. Too short a time at Muir woods. Also, needed more time in Sonoma for lunch. Should cut out one winery tour. Tasting 16 wines was too much. Jacuzzi winery is a hobby for rich people. They pushed their lesser wines on the suckers. Cline person seemed bored with her job. Scenery was wonderful as was the company in the van.
Despite my criticisms, I recommend going on this tour. They pack in a lot in one fast-paced day.

We had a great day out with a very friendly guide. This tour gave us great value and we would be happy to recommend.

This was a neat experience. Muir Woods was breathtaking and of course the wineries were fun. My only complaint and it is not really a complaint was that there really wasn't enough time at each stop. The Muir Woods stop was maybe about an hour and fifteen minutes and each winery 3 in total were less than an hour. I would have liked a more detailed itinerary of day to understand the time constraints. Also, we did end after 4 and then the ride back to the city got us at the hotel at 5:30. If it was even extended to 5 then you would have had at least one hour per winery. Overall, fantastic. So beautiful and fun. The tour driver was very knowledgeable.
