Richard was a great tour guide. He knows alot about the area and was helpful in his suggestions. We went over the Golden Gate bridge and on to Muir Woods. We had enough time to see most everything. Then on to the first winery. It was nice. We tasted 6 wines there. We then drove to Sonoma and had lunch. Richard suggested several places we could eat at without alot of waiting. WE went on to 2 other wineries and had 11 more wines between them. We drove back to San Francisco and stopped to take photos of the Golden Gate Bridge. It was a very nice day and I would highly recommend booking this excursion.

Loved Muir Woods and wish there had been a bit more time to spend enjoying the trees. Our guide Brian was very pleasant and knowledgeable and did his best to get us to Muir Woods before the huge crowds. There is a small entry fee for Muir Woods and exploration is without a guide. We also visited 3 Sonoma wineries. At each winery, we tasted 5 or 6 wines and was given the opportunity to purchase. We wish there had been more information about the vines and different types of grapes. Also, we would have preferred to learn more about and see more of the production of the wine. We were tired of tasting the wines by the 3rd vineyard. 5 stars for Brian!

This was an amazing tour that I would highly recommend. Paul our tour guide was so knowledgeable and kept the group entertained and engaged. Muir Woods is a spectacular place to see. Everything was well organized at each winery and the overlook stop to see the Golden Bridge was the best way to end the day.
