5.00The tour guide was the owner/operator. He knows some of the winery owners. BR Cohn was the medium size winery with good wines. Redder the better was good too. Peter Cellars was good but 1 of the bottles that I bought did not have the foil cap on the coork!
Great experience made better by Anthony!

5.00Anthony was the best guide we could have asked for!! He was funny and knew facts about everything we drove by! The wineries we visited were very nice, with BR Cohn being our favorite! Beautiful grounds and great wine! It was awesome they got us from our hotel and took us back so we didn’t have to worry about driving and could enjoy ourselves. Thank you Anthony for such a great trip!

5.00We both like wine, but dont know a lot about it. This tour helped improve our knowledge greatly & was really enjoyable. It wasnt at all stuffy or elitist, and gave you as much info as you need to enjoy wine to the max. Each of the 3 stops were very different, and had something to offer for everyone. Without doubt the highlight of the tour was our driver/guide Anthony. He is a fantastic guide & gives you loads of facts about the winery you are visiting, but also loads of other interesting stories while you are on your journey. He is also very funny! Great value tour. We would do again if back in San Francisco.
Treat us to one additional winery, please!

4.00I booked this experience for my husband and I, and there were 7 guests total in our group. Katya was a knowledgeable and accommodating guide for our group. We visited 3 wineries in total: 2 before lunch and one after lunch. We particularly enjoyed our visit to Peter Cellars vineyard/winery due to the quality of his wines, his life story, and his knowledge at each step of the process. We had 2 hours in the town of Sonoma for lunch - we would have preferred less time for lunch and the opportunity to visit one more winery.
Super fun wine tour
