The whole experience was lovely. Fred, our driver, picked us up from our hotel at 9am as requested. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable, using every opportunity to provide information along the way. He picked 2 vineyards for us, we had a private tasting session at Caymus and another glass of wine at Rombauer, which had the nicest view. We also stopped in Yountville on the way up so we could sample pastries from Bouchon Bakery and we were dropped back off in Sausalito, where Fred recommended a restaurant to finish the day. We got back to San Francisco via ferry, enjoying views of the bay and Blue Angels squad display. Would highly recommend!

A perfect tour, we chose our winery based on what we wanted to visit and our needs. We were traveling with the whole family and not everyone spoke English very well, but Fred was really nice and there were no problems communicating. We visited two wineries in Napa Valley and the suburbs of San Francisco before leaving and decided to end our day in Sausalito on Fred's recommendation, then take the ferry boat and see the city and Alcatraz up close, which was very nice. Thank you, Fred, for this great idea that added a magical touch to this fantastic day. I recommend this incredible tour, which you can plan with Fred according to your needs.

The tour guide was excellent. He took us on the tour we wanted to see and experience, visiting vineyards and having lunch at a place with a magnificent view and wonderful food. We enjoyed some wines without getting caught up in the commercial wine tastings that are so common in Napa. All honor and praise to him, and highly recommended.

Fred was very knowledgeable and really gave an outstanding tour of the city and surrounding area. The vehicle was comfortable and we felt well looked after in our private tour. Napa had limited access with our children in tow so we wouldn’t do this again with them but would absolutely do this tour with other adults.

Ben the tour group driver was great. Loved how he explained and got us to talk to each other by asking where we were all from. Knew our names real quick and just talked to everyone. Very friendly.
