BEST DAY EVER!! We had an amazing day with Chris touring the Sonoma countryside. The bikes were high quality and comfortable, and we loved the tech helmets so we could communicate throughout the journey. The route was beautiful and my parents said it was the best day trip they have ever done! We also loved the local, small, family Vineyards that Chris took us to and he was very knowledgable about the area and provided fab recommendations for after the trip. Lunch was delicious! I will definitely be doing the tour again the next time I visit.

Our guide, Aiden, was excellent. The last winery we visited, RuVango, was wonderful. The hike in Muir Woods was also enjoyable. I would like a refund for the Silicon Valley tour the day before, as it was a complete lie and terrible, but I highly recommend this wine tour.
