What a great time!
Loved every minute of it. Did 2 days with 2 different drivers and both were amazing. They got us into some vineyards that were either only selling to their mailing list or only distributing locally. The vineyards themselves were amazing. You can tell they really care about the experience and try to match you with what you are looking for.

All I can say is fantastic!!!
I cannot say enough about my experience with this service, everything was perfect, my interaction with staff was limited to Ruby and Russell, both were fantastic. I know Russell is newer to the company so it is my hope the owners know that they have a great employee, my wife and I were so impressed with our experience!!!

Beautiful day exploring Dry Creek and Russians River
Our third Bohemian Highway tour and another perfect day. Discovered two new, small family-estate wineries, spent time in the vineyards, had great conversations with the winemakers and drank some stunning wine. Our driver Jason was excellent, and we 100 % recommend him. Will definitely book again next year!

Best intro to Sonoma
This was our first trip to Sonoma and one we will never forget thanks to the best intro from Bohemian Highway Travel Co. Allyson put together a fab itinerary for us super last minute. We are particularly interested in biodynamic and natural wine processes and ended up at some wonderful places. They felt like wineries we wouldn't have found ourselves and were truly enjoyable settings to taste in. Nigel was such a lovely tour guide on the day, super knowledgable about the local area and so friendly to chat to. They were even willing to pick us up from our home in the city. The company has a great story and you can tell from their level of service and hospitality that this is a true labor of love. We can't wait to tour more places with them in future and try some of their other experiences out either as a couple or together with some of our friends.

Sonoma visit
This was my 4th time to wine county, second to Sonoma and first to go through a personalized travel company. Mariah worked closely with me to plan our trip and was extremely responsive to any and all my questions. Jack (our tour guide) picked us up promptly and was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed very personal and specialized visits with vineyard staff and wine owners that we would not have had otherwise. We loved it and will definitely use this service again!

Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Napa & Sonoma.
How much does Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries cost?
+
Prices start at $449 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Napa & Sonoma usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Napa & Sonoma is not rushed.
Is Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Napa & Sonoma, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Napa & Sonoma can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Napa & Sonoma and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Napa & Sonoma within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Napa & Sonoma?
+
Napa and Sonoma are all about how a tour is put together: which wineries it can actually book, how many stops, whether lunch and tasting fees are included, and whether it lifts off in a balloon at sunrise. We weight inclusions and transparency heavily in the ranking here. On Outty we rank every Napa & Sonoma experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Napa Valley Small Group Winery Tour, #1 Sonoma Walking Food, Wine Tasting & History Tour (Public Tour), Sonoma Valley Pedal Assist Bike Tour with Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Napa & Sonoma?
+
March to May and September to November, with harvest crush in September. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Napa & Sonoma?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries?
+
Included: 6 hours of transportation - pick up and drop off at your desired location; Chef prepared picnic lunch - seasonal offerings (and any dietary restrictions noted); Tasting Fees at every wineries are included in trip; A private host with in-depth knowledge of the local wine region; and Insiders access to wineries not open to the general public. Not included: Driver gratuity is not included but greatly appreciated at your discretion. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 9 listed pickup locations in and around Napa & Sonoma. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries offered in?
+

+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Sonoma Wine Tour - Private Access to Small Wineries if the weather is bad?
