We’ve carefully designed four routes within the Napa Valley (the Carneros region, south central valley, north central valley, and Calistoga) as well as two tours of Sonoma County (Sonoma and Healdsburg/Dry Creek area). Based on winery availability and the number of reserved guests, we’ll select from one of our 6 pre-designed routes. They are all truly amazing and entice you to spend more days with us so that you can enjoy many regions of the wine country.
Sample Day:
You’ll arrive at our shop at 9:30am to get fitted with a complementary bike of your choice and helmet (By the way, we’re not your typical bicycle rental and touring company…we recycle our bicycles every year offering you the latest model bicycles from well-known bicycle manufacturers like Specialized and Trek). After an introduction to the rules-of-the-road and bicycle orientation, you’ll be peddling away to your first winery.
We’ll bike at your pace for 15-20 miles on mostly flat, easy terrain with the wine country as our backdrop… picturesque mountains, vineyards, olive trees, redwoods, manzanitas, eucalyptus, lavender, and rosemary. We’ll guide you to four fantastic wineries that we have hand selected where you will have an opportunity to taste fine wines and possibly go on an educational tour behind the scenes. Each route is strategically designed with winery stops approximately every 4 miles.
Rest, relax, and taste at each winery for 30 - 45 minutes...no rushing, plenty of time to take in the scenery and sample wines. Depending on availability, our lunch setting will either overlook the valley with breath-taking views or overlook the vineyards – a wonderful way to enjoy fresh fruit and cheese, salads, and local deli sandwiches. Don’t worry about your purchases along the way; our van support is close behind picking them up.
We’ll finish the tour around 4:00pm. Our guides will do everything in their power to ensure you have a memorable day. Again, the focus of the day is a Wine Country experience that engages all your senses: some comfortable activity complete with beautiful scenery, fresh air, birds singing, and of course, great wine and food!
