Our guide to City & Wine: Hop On Hop Off Tour & Half Day Wine Tour

Half Day Wine Country Tour (approx. 4-5 hours)

Your tour departs from Fisherman's Wharf at midday and we head north, crossing the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge with great photo opportunities from high above the San Francisco Bay. The tour continues through the charming seaside town of Sausalito, and then passing through Marin County into the world famous Carneros Wine Region and beautiful Sonoma Valley.

Enjoy the drive through the beautiful scenery with magnificent vineyards along the road and visit two highly regarded Sonoma wineries for delicious wine tastings and an exclusive estate tour. A wine expert will introduce the fermentation process, barrel aging, and bottling, and you will be able to taste some of the best wines yourself.

Towards the end of the day, enjoy the scenic drive back to San Francisco, crossing the Golden Gate Bridge once more as the sun slowly starts to set into the Pacific Ocean! This fun and informative Wine Country tour not only offers a taste of superb wineries in the region, but it also offers a chance to enjoy the splendor of the beautiful vineyards and picturesque Sonoma Valley as your guide escorts you from winery to winery.
