Napa Valley Wineries Tour Including Picnic Lunch

Bus driver was super nice and informative (Joseph) had a great day. We didn’t spend a ton of time at each winery and our group was smaller so he adjusted accordingly.

This tour was fantastic! Our tour guide, Abe, was simple terrific! I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning a bit about wine and having an intimate, fun ride with others.

Our driver Z was friendly, the 3 wineries we went to were all charming and beautiful. Overall my wife and I had a good time as this was our first wine tour. The only reason this review is 4 stars and not 5 was due to the lack of a seating policy on the tour. The seats my wife and I sat in the entire tour (which also included our personal belongings and newly purchased wine bottles) were taken over by another group. Despite our complaints they didn’t move and Z took no action. I was forced to grab all of our belongings and sit somewhere else at the last leg of the tour. This was an invasion of our personal space as it should be common courtesy to sit in the same seats for the duration of the trip, however if that isn’t the case then the tour guides should help reinforce everyone to “stay in their lanes” and not allow unruly riders to change seats at their whim while other peoples personal belongings are still there.

Our tour guide Zidan was fantastic! He was very nice and took wonderful care of our group! The wineries were a blast. We visited Madonna, Ru Vango and Black Stallion. They were three unique experiences, and we loved every minute! With picturesque views and wine in your hand, you cannot go wrong booking this tour.

Host got lost multiple times, had very little to no insight on wine or the wineries, made it clear she did not even like wine, and was overall mediocre at best. That all being said our host was friendly, she did try to keep a good mood going around and I believe tried her best. I tipped her well because of this but would not recommend this tour to anyone looking for a true wine tasting experience. The wineries we got taken to were all just ok, they pretty much just brought out a flight of wines to try and didn’t give much background on the wines aside from them being grown in Napa which I could of figured that out by reading the bottle. The description of the cost per wine tasting is deceiving. It says approximately $20 per tasting online however is closer to $50 per tasting which I wouldn’t of cared if I actually got some true information on the wine I was trying. I took my girlfriend for her birthday as she loves wine and could tell she was very disappointed with the overall experience even though she wouldn’t say it. All in all just flat out upsetting for the main course of a birthday event.

Abe was a great tour driver! He was friendly, funny, and is someone we’ll always remember. The tour was great and I definitely recommend it for first time Napa goers. It was the perfect amount of time and a great way to dip our toes into Napa Valley.

Me and my group had a fantastic time. We had an amazing experience and learned about the process of making wine. We were provided an amazing lunch and the best part about the tour was our driver, Abe. Ask for him, he was incredible. Also, bring snack and cash for the tip.

3 stops, a cold turkey sandwich, chips and cookie for a picnic lunch. No information just taste and purchase. Way to much time spent at each stop.

The winery’s were all excellent choices! I appreciated the experience of learning about the process of wine making which grew deeper level of my appreciation of the art ❤️.

We would recommend this tour to a friend if they knew what they were getting into. The wines we tasted were excellent but we didn't realize that there would be a $20 to $25 fee at each stop for wine tasting. It did say in the tour description that there is a cost for the tastings but I guess we thought maybe it was an overall cost of $20 - $25. The disappointing thing is that we thought we'd learn all about Napa Valley, how grapes are grown, specific things about the vineyards, how the wine is bottled/processed - the whole wine making experience. While they did touch on that, it wasn't very detailed and only when we asked questions did we really find things out. The first stop was okay and the man that did our wine pours was knowledgeable and friendly. The second stop was bad. The lady gave us minimal information and just didn't seem to like her job. The third stop made the tour worth it. The lady there had only been doing tours for two days she said but she was the most fun and knowledgeable of all. At this stop we did learn more about the bottling of wine, etc. And, at this stop, if we bought a bottle of wine the wine tasting fee was waived - very much appreciated that. If you really want a tour to learn more about Napa Valley and wine processing, don't take this tour.
