A great day's tour through the Muir Woods and Wine Country Sonoma. We were looking for something where we could do both in one day and for what you pay, this is great value for money. We stopped off at Muir Woods to begin the day and was a highlight of the day. The walk here was incredibly calming and the scenery just stunning to walk around. The only thing I would say to make this better would be to allow for a further 30mins walking around as it's a place I could've spent a little longer in. We then went onto 3 local wineries for some wine tasting, having lunch after the first tasting. On the way back to San Francisco, we stopped off at a viewpoint with phenomenal viewpoints of the Golden Gate Bridge that had no one else there. A point only locals would know about for sure! This was a great stop to top off the day and get that final opportunity in. Brian, who we had as our driver and guide, was great throughout providing us with good insights and giving us the time to explore each area. Highly recommended if you're in San Francisco and want to see a few things in one day!

We had a timely hotel pick up, was a small group which makes it even better to allow for everyone to engage in the activities. The stop in the Muis woods was wonderful, perfect time allowed to do the walk, take pictures, hit the shop and get to the meeting point. We enjoyed the Cline winery. The stop for lunch was great, perfect time to enjoy lunch and hit the shops. Had a stop to take pics of Golden Gate!!!!

Our guide Brian was extremely knowledgeable, interesting, enthusiastic and charming. He purposely drives his small van with no more than 8 folks. Very comfortable and pleasant. The weather wasn't great but that didn't dampen anyone's good time. Muir Woods is exquisite and peaceful. But make sure you wear proper footwear. It can very mucky underfoot.

Sonoma is delightful and low-key. The tour wisely includes 3 very different wineries which all have their own vibe. Lunch on your own is fun-the choices are plentiful and varied and oh so tasty!

The tour price is pretty reasonable, as you are getting a whole day's entertainment.

Our family highly recommends this tour It's a San Francisco gem with ending magnificent views of the treasure: The Golden Gate Bridge.
