Tour Description
This tour departs from the Ferry dock in Vallejo, so you can either hop the 8:20am ferry, or drive in to meet up with us at that location (there is a parking garage). The ferry ride is fun and oh-so beautiful. There is a cafe and bar on board.
The tour will then proceed up into the lovely Napa Valley, visiting three hidden gem wineries on Napa’s back roads. This small-group tour is designed to be a fun, relaxing day out in the wine country. Your tour guide will share stories and anecdotes, as well as imparting just the right amount of details about winemaking and grape growing. This is a social experience, with most of our guests making new friends by the end of the day.
