Four days and nights, more than 500 wineries! These tours are unique from any others. After an orientation night a luxury hotel, youll spend the next 3 nights and 4 days in one wine country deluxe hotel in a great location, so you dont have to pack your luggage every night! Then youll be guided on great wine country rides through acres and acres of vineyards, along the scenic coastal highways, and through twisty mountain passes that are local favorites. Combine these with a limo wine tasting tour, and unlimited night life options to make this a unique and memorable vacation. The wine country hotels, specifically chosen for location, are within walking distance to 15 award winning restaurants, shopping, antique stores, movie theaters, night clubs, and the Wednesday Night Market. Each week the main downtown street is blocked off and filled with live music, food vendors, produce stands, and many local vendors’ booths. Both sides of the street are filled with restaurants, bars, and shops. This tour includes all ground transportation and luggage hauling, full motorcycle rental support, luxury hotels for 4 nights, breakfasts each day, first night dinner, a limo wine tour at the end, and bridge toll for the Golden Gate. Your tour starts on Sunday with a hotel shuttle picking you up at San Francisco Airport and taking you to a luxury airport hotel where a welcome dinner and trip overview awaits you. On Monday morning a chase vehicle and trailer pick up your luggage at the hotel entrance and a shuttle van takes you to the motorcycle rental shop, where your pre-reserved Harley Davidson, Goldwing, or BMW motorcycle awaits. From there, we cruise along the San Francisco water front to the Golden Gate Bridge. Once across the bridge, we climb over the coastal mountains to the Pacific Coast Highway, then wind our way up to Bodega Bay for lunch. After lunch, we explore more coast line until we come to a local favorite twisty mountain pass that winds up to a saddle ridge with views of rolling Oak and Redwood tree covered hills, valleys, and high elevation vineyards, until we stop at the Lake Sonoma overlook. From there, we wind our way down into one of the most beautiful wine appellation valleys in the world! Then we work our way through the vineyards to our luxury hotel. Monday through Wednesday evenings are unplanned, allowing you the option to choose any one of the 15 award winning restaurants, shopping malls, movie theaters, night clubs, seeing a show or concert at the local events center, or just relaxing around the hotel. On Tuesday morning we head out for an all day ride. We start by heading
out towards the Valley of the Moon, over the hill to Calistoga, then
over the base of Mt St, Helena to Middletown. Then we ride up the hill
through Cobb, and over the mountain with views of Clear Lake and Konocti
to Hopland for lunch. From there we head north to pick up Highway 253
to Boonville, where they still speak their own language. Then back on
Hwy 128 through the Anderson Valley vineyards to Geyserville, across
the Russian River bridge to wind our way through two world famous appellations;
Alexander Valley and Knights Valley. We then touch the corner of Napa
Valley again, through Calistoga, and back to our hotel. We’ll be back
in time for cocktail hour, relaxing in the spa, and another free night
to explore the downtown night life. Thursday will see us riding through the vineyards in the morning where we can hopefully watch the Hot Air Balloons soar over the grapes while we wind along the Russian River and back to the PCH. Down to Stinson Beach, across to the Golden Gate Bridge, along the water front through San Francisco and back to the motorcycle rental shop, where the shuttle waits to take you back to the hotel or the airport, depending on your travel arrangements.
