As a local living in San Francisco, I appreciated how stress-free this tour made visiting Napa — no need to worry about logistics or driving, everything was taken care of, which made for a relaxed experience. Visiting two wineries felt just right for a half-day trip — enough variety without feeling rushed or overly tipsy (three might have been too much) — though I do wish we had an extra 15–20 minutes at each stop to linger longer. The tour includes a 24-hour bus pass, which I haven’t used yet, and the instructions on when and how to activate it weren’t super clear, but customer service responded quickly and assured me I could use it later, which was helpful. I initially thought the price was a bit steep for a half-day tour, but assuming I’m able to successfully use the 24-hour bus pass (planning to do so in a few weeks), it actually seems like a pretty good deal. All in all, a smooth and enjoyable way to spend a relaxed day in wine country without any hassle.

Grady was an excellent tour guide, with lots of personal and historical anecdotes about the areas we drove through on the way to Napa county. He was very accommodating when traffic caused a slight delay in the schedule. The two wineries visited were very generous with their tastings of a delicious selection of wines. I would highly recommend this tour!

The first winery, Madonna, was great. The guide was interesting and the wines were good. The second winery, Ru Vango, allowed us a better view and some interesting artwork but I didn’t care for the wine.

We had a very nice time very punctual and safe driver.
We had a very difficult time getting the bus driver to stop for a bathroom break after the wineries. The drive home took longer than expected. He wouldn’t unlock the bathroom door in the bus and it took me 3-4 tries to convince him stop. There were multiple people who needed to use the restroom.
