Wine Country Shuttle from San Francisco
Description
The Wine Country Shuttle from San Francisco is designed for travelers who want a more flexible and enjoyable way to experience both Napa and Sonoma without being locked into a rigid tour schedule. This small-group experience includes visits to two hand-selected wineries, one in Sonoma and one in Napa, while also giving you extended free time in Sonoma Plaza where you can shape your day however you’d like. Guests may choose to add an additional tasting at one of the many nearby tasting rooms, enjoy a relaxed lunch at one of the plaza’s popular restaurants, browse local shops, or simply unwind with a glass of wine and take in the laid-back Wine Country atmosphere. Unlike traditional wine tours that rush from stop to stop, this experience is paced to feel easy, social, and customizable. Wine tasting fees are not included, giving guests full control over their spending and allowing them to choose tasting experiences that best fit their interests and budget.
