Getaway Adventures

Valid until: Jan 31, 2011

One of our most popular trips. This is an off the beaten path look at the scenic upper Napa Valley. You’ll travel along country lanes to small, family owned wineries that truly represent the Napa Valley. We’ve selected wineries - large and small, historic and modern, smaller “one man shows” to extraordinary “Shrines to Wine”. Along the way you’ll taste Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon among others. You’ll tour a winery to see how grapes are made into wine, as well as a champagne cellar to see how Champagne is made. All in all, you’ll travel 10 to 17 miles over mostly flat, easy terrain.

Tour Time: Daily 9:30am to 3:30pm
Included in Tour: Hybrid bike and helmet rental, unlimited water, Wine Country gourmet lunch and professional local guides.

Ride on some of Sonoma County’s most beautiful roads! We will spend the day in the hilly Dry Creek Valley, cycling on country lanes and visiting three to five wineries. Dry Creek Valley is known for its spicy reds and great white wines and we will bring you to our favorite wineries to sample fine wine created from the vines we will be cycling past. Over the course of the day we will ride 15-20 miles on relatively flat roads, and have our gourmet picnic lunch at one of our winery stops. This area is more rural and quiet than Napa Valley and reminds everyone of Provence, France.

Tour Time: Daily 9:30am to 3:30pm
