For travellers with an adventurous spirit and a passion for the outdoors, there?s no better way to experience Northern California?s Wine Country than from the seat of a bicycle with Sonoma Valley Bike Tours.

Sonoma Valley Bike Tours have been sharing this wonderful place that we get to call home with outdoors-loving travellers for more than 20 years. So, whether you?re seeking one of our all-inclusive Vacation Packages or just want to round out your Wine country itinerary with one or two of our One-Day Tours, Sonoma Valley Bike Tours promises to be your best resource for all of your trip-planning needs.

And whether you consider yourself the ?undiscovered Lance Armstrong? or you?re just looking for a fun, leisurely paced ride, we have options catered to every ability, whim or fancy.

RIDE, Wine AND DINE TOUR
Our daily bike Tours offer you the opportunity to cycle from Winery to Winery in the open air right alongside the Vineyards. Touring the Wine country by bike is a far more exhilarating and memorable experience than viewing the valley from the inside of a rental car. Our bike Tours cater to tourists ? not cyclists. Most people who ride with us describe themselves as ?leisurely? or ?occasional? cyclists. Some even admit they haven?t been on a bike in a few years!

With a casual pace and frequent stops, the emphasis is on enjoying the scenery and discovering the boutique and family-owned Wineries along the way. On our Tours, you?ll cycle an average of 4-5 miles between each Winery visit.A gourmet picnic-style lunch is also included, served alfresco overlooking the Vineyards

If our Ride, Wine & Dine Tour sounds nearly perfect, but you'd like to have your morning or afternoon free for other activities, we invite you to join us for a Half-Day Ride & Wine Tour.

CYCLING IN THE Vineyards
If you find yourself experiencing an inexplicable urge to jump out of the car and run through the rows of planted vines, our Cycling "In" the Vineyards Tour will give you that chance - only you'll do it on a mountain bike rather than on foot.To date, only one Winery allows off-road biking Tours through its vineyard property - which is why this unique experience is not to be missed! Best of all, the vineyard property we'll be touring borders the northernmost stretches of the San Francisco Bay. The marshlands found here are a federally designated wildlife preserve, home to an array of wetland birds including herons, mallards and egrets.

A gourmet picnic-style lunch is also included on this tour, served alfresco overlooking the Vineyards.

Hiking IN THE Vineyards
Strike out on foot and explore the Vineyards up-close on this guided Hiking excursion.You'll begin with a tour of a vineyard property that borders the northernmost stretches of the San Francisco Bay. The marshlands found here are a federally designated wildlife preserve, home to an array of wetland birds including herons, mallards and egrets.

A gourmet picnic-style lunch is also included, served overlooking the Vineyards alongside a Wine tasting. After lunch, you'll hit the vineyard trails again and hike to a neighbouring Winery for another tasting.

Kayaking TOUR
Take a break from the well-travelled roads and byways and escape to one of Napa's most scenic waterways, the Napa River. From the seat of a kayak, you'll capture a perspective of the valley that most tourists - and even many locals - never get to see.

Your paddling adventure will take place on part of the river that is a tidal estuary - home to a wide variety of wildlife including mallards, green-winged teals, mergansers, wood ducks, herons, egrets, kingfishers, rails, grebes and the endangered clapper rail.

The river's calm waters are ideal for novice paddlers. Your guide will give you all the instruction you need.

After your paddling excursion, we'll make a stop at a nearby Winery in the Carneros Region to toast a glorious afternoon in Wine Country.
