California Wine Tours and Transportation

We had an unforgettable experience with California Wine Tours and Transportation, and it was made all the more special thanks to our incredible driver, Tommy Lay. From the moment he greeted us with a warm smile and a professional demeanor, we knew we were in great hands. Tommy was not only punctual and courteous but also impressively knowledgeable about the Napa and Sonoma wine regions. He curated our day with impeccable timing, making thoughtful suggestions while never rushing us, allowing us to truly savor each stop. His easygoing personality, smooth driving, and attention to detail made our day stress-free and genuinely enjoyable. What stood out most was his attentiveness — he had water ready after every tasting, kept our wine purchases safe and organized. If you’re booking a wine tour in Northern California, request Tommy Lay — he turned a great day into an exceptional one. Highly recommend this company, and especially Tommy, for anyone looking to elevate their wine country experience!

To sum up in one word…WOW! Definitely above and beyond my ecxpectations! Girls weekend turned into a luxury vacation. Additionally, it’s hard to find really great service these days. Our wonderful driver, Paul, is a gem and just an Incredible human! Thank you, Paul! I appreciate you making our trip much more special. Paul was outstanding and deserves 5-stars!! My best friend and I had a girls weekend and he drove us from San Fransisco to Sonoma and I knew before we got to our first winery that we would love him, so I booked him for the next day to Napa. Throughout the entire weekend, he opened car doors, had cold water ready for us after every winery, took pictures, and was super knowledgeable when we had questions. But that is just the great service he gave us. He was also thoughtful, easy to talk to, and looked out for us which makes him a great person. We would definitely request Paul again next time we are in the San Fransisco area. He helped make our weekend a memorable one!!

We’ve booked with California Wine Tours twice now and couldn’t be more delighted with their top-notch concierge service! They take care of everything—scheduling, winery bookings, and of course, the driving—making the entire experience effortless and enjoyable. They’re incredibly flexible and truly go above and beyond to personalize the day. We were lucky to have Thomas as our driver on both days—charming, polite, and an absolute pro. He even nailed the music when we said, “Surprise us!” Highly recommend California Wine Tours for an unforgettable wine country experience. (Thanks Valerie and Thomas!)

From pick up to drop off everything was excellent. Our driver Paul arrived on time and we had a beautifully clean and stocked coach. Paul was an excellent driver. Johnathan our tour assistant made the whole process seamless. Thanks for a memorable trip CWT! Very pleased!

We had the absolute BEST time with our driver Ted while in Napa. We were there for my bachelorette trip and couldn’t have been more pleased with the limo bus. It was a beautiful space, plenty of room for our group and the speakers were great quality. Everyone said that using the bus for our winery tour day was the highlight of the trip. I also found Jamie to be super helpful with booking and answering questions. She went above and beyond to provide recommendations and even ensured we had a vehicle when there was a late mixup with the dates. I couldn’t recommend this company more!!

Our driver Ricky Bobby is a friend forever! He was so fun and sweet. We were right on time all day long. Would 1000 percent recommend. Additionally, Jonathan was SO helpful in getting everything set up. He was always so sweet on the phone and over email. Very thorough and easy process.

We had a wonderful experience! Our driver ,Brent, was truly the highlight . He took excellent care of us, was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and remained attentive throughout our trip. He made us feel genuinely special. We'll definitely book again - and we'll be requesting Brent !

A fantastic experience from start to finish. The service provided when booking our tour was highly personalized and all employees extremely responsive. Our driver George was prompt, communicative, and cognizant of even the smallest details, such as wiping down the water bottles from the cooler before handing them to us, and made our day extremely enjoyable. I truly can’t recommend California Wine Tours and Transportation enough.

We recently used CWT for a girls weekend in Sonoma/Napa. Jamie was so sweet to work with as we were in the planning process. She gave us ideas and offered to help support reservations as needed. Our driver Andy went above and beyond in everything he did. He was amazing and we wish we were out here on a more regular basis. One of the wineries we had scheduled a reservation at had some issues and needed to close early. We found out on our way to our second stop and before we even sat down, Andy texted us to let us know there were some additional options that he could book a reservation for us instead. He was so sweet, we loved our two days with him!

We used CWT for our 10 year anniversary trip wine is experience, and I have nothing but rave reviews to share. Jamie was the best! She took our input and planned out a fantastic day. Our driver Andy was unmatched. Professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and funny...he was great. Would highly recommend if you're overwhelmed with the wine opportunities in Napa as we were, these guys know their stuff and do it right!

We had a wonderful time on our wine tour. First Jonathan Calderon was great in helping me setup the wine tour transportation. He made a great suggestion for our party size. Second Jamie Brown helped setup the wine tour itself and made all of the direct resevation for the winery. She also suggested a great five course lunch paired with wine which was fantastic. Third and not least we were assigned Andy Henry as our chauffeur who safely got us to each of the wineries without any of us in my party worrying about driving us.

Kudos to California Wine tours! I can't applaud Jamie Brown enough. She put together the best wine tour ever. We had 27 people celebrating my birthday and our wine tour day couldn't be better . Jamie was so knowledgeable, patient, and eager to help us in many ways! We presented a challenge to her because we had a budget and a list of "can't miss" wineries. Well, she was able to stay within our budget and offer us two wonderful tasting experiences and a beautiful lunch in the middle of a vineyard. Napa wineries are not eager to take large groups, but Jamie created a miracle ! The itinerary was great, the vehicle fabulous with bench seating style, birthday decorations, and champagne toast. It was pure luxury! The driver, Ray, was awesome. He made our day so much fun. My family and friends are still talking about that day with Ray! If you want a perfect Napa wine tour contact Jamie at California Wine tours and request Ray to be your guide and driver! You will not be sorry! It was the best tour I have ever experienced! Janice

We booked our second wine tour with California Wine Tours last week. As before, the experience was impeccable. Jamie Brown worked with us twice now, and she is really fantastic! She helped us pick amazing wineries in Sonoma, arranged a picnic lunch at a winery and provided us with a very knowledgeable and courteous driver to chauffeur us for the entire day! In my mind, this is the only way to experience wine country! We will book again, to be sure!!

The best lol.. remember me ? Micheal Marino is super cool best experience ever so I'm back .. I'll be in the area for the next couple of weeks hook me up.. see ya soon

I cant thank California Wine tours enough for our amazing experience! Jaime was extremely helpful in helping us plan an experience tailored to my large group. Pete was THE BEST driver. So considerate and thoughtful. Thank you for making my birthday trip memorable.

We used California Wine Tours for my friend's bachelorette party weekend and could not have had a better experience. We had an executive sprinter van for the airport transfers to and from SFO and Napa and a limo sprinter van for one of our winery visit days. The vehicles were all very nice and clean and made for a very comfortable and enjoyable ride. Booking with the company was an easy experience, and everyone I worked with was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions. I was alerted via text and email when our ride was on the way to pick us up and when it had arrived. Tommy, our driver, was amazing as well. He was very kind and got us everywhere we needed to be safely. He loaded our luggage, helped us in and out of the bus in our heels, and was able to make a good recommendation for lunch on our winery tour day. I could not recommend CWT enough for any of your transportation needs! Well worth the services for a wonderful trip!

We used CWT for a wine tour in Napa and it was a great experience - I highly recommend them if you're looking to do a chauffeured tour in Napa/Sonoma area. I worked with Jamie at CWT who helped plan our trip, including recommending wineries that would be in our taste profile and booking reservations at the wineries for us. She worked with me on styles/types of wines we like and paired that up for an amazing experience. The suggestions and pacing of the tour was great and it ended up being a perfect evening. I got a lot of compliments from my friends on how well it went (to which I said, well I hired a good company!) Our driver, Thomas, was awesome. He was a blast on the trip, very accommodating, and stayed in communication with us perfectly. Super friendly guy, everyone loved him. When we needed to make a change to plans he was able to accommodate no problem, and made the experience flawless. I cannot say enough positive things, it really made for a great highlight to our weekend in Napa. Thank you CWT!

Tommy is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!! He is so thoughtful and went above and beyond for our reservation!!! Offered to take pics for us, offered some of his historical knowledge, took a few last minute detours per our request and all around really made our experience amazing! He really did think of everything and I will for sure be requesting him again next time!!!!

Jamie did an incredible job putting together an amazing itinerary on very short notice. She handled all the details from getting a driver, scheduling tastings and meals. Everything was incredible. Jamie was able to draw on her knot of being a local to know exactly where to go when to best utilize our short time in Napa. It was beautifully organized. We had a great time. I highly recommend Jamie and California Wine Tours.

My wife and I really enjoyed our day with California wine Tours. They helps us plan our day. What wineries we wanted, what we liked and even lunch. Our driver George was awesome. Take the stress and DUI out of NAPA and hire these guys.

Let me say that each time I go to Napa, it will not be an option to not book with California Wine Tours. It was a pleasant experience from start to finish. Jamie, who plans your itinerary, genuinely cares about finding the perfect fit for you. She takes the time to ask what types of wine you prefer, the environment, etc. She gave great feedback on all of the wineries and provided great recommendations. She just asks all the appropriate questions overall to ensure that your experience is the best, and I can confirm that she fulfilled that for us. I went two separate times to Napa with a different girlfriend each time. Each friend enjoyed it just as much as I did. I had Thomas as my driver the first time, and when I booked the second time, I made sure that Thomas would be available to drive us again. He is so kind, personable, funny, and made sure that we got to each winery on time, had everything we needed. We really just felt like we were in good hands. I appreciated his patience as I know it can be challenging dealing with people drinking all day. He never made you feel like a burden and was very attentive. Pricing is reasonable to me. Jamie books your wineries for you, your tastings, and has your driver pick up food for you, if you're interested. Once you're picked up by your driver, the rest is guided and seamless. I looked forward to my next visit and my next wine tour with California Wine Tours. I have already recommended California Wine Tours to my friends. Thanks again for the great experience!

Excellent company would highly recommend using them. Jamie helped set up our wine tours and tastings and she picked some amazing vineyards for us to visit. She also had great recommendations for lunch and dinners. Jay was our driver and he was the VERY BEST!!! Jay knew everything about the area, his car was very clean, he was an excellent driver and just an awesome guy!!! Will definitely request him as our driver next time we visit. I very rarely do reviews but I would highly recommend this company!!!

Took my mom to Napa for a surprise 60th birthday and I can't suggest this company enough! Brent was our airport and winery tour guide, he was more than amazing, so knowledgeable and engaging! Brent went exceedingly above and beyond to make our experience as amazing as possible! Thank you for making our trip that much more memorable! If you're looking for a shuttle or winery tour service in the Napa/Bay Area don't hesitate to book them! Thank you so much we had the absolute best time!

We booked California Wine Tours (CWT) for our all-day group event in Napa. Maddie was incredibly helpful during our booking process, ensuring that we had the most optimized itinerary. She was very friendly and communicative throughout the booking process and shared our driver information. Ricky, our driver, was fantastic! He is a sixth generation Napa resident and knows the Napa Valley area incredibly well, so we also got a bit of a tour while driving throughout the Napa Valley. We were slightly early getting into Napa, and instead of him bringing us to our first venue, he suggested that we check out downtown close to the river. He took us there so we were able to explore the area, visit the shops, and check out the scenery. It was so great to explore the area and fill time with activities versus just waiting. We had multiple stops for our fun-filled day, and Ricky made sure that we were on time for every single event. He truly put our experience first, which made our travels so fun!

We had booked a wedding shuttle for our guests from the Sheraton Petaluma to Viansa Sonoma with another company months ahead of time and realized 3 weeks before the wedding that we would need a second shuttle. Since our original transportation company didn't have any extra shuttles, we were searching for another shuttle bus on a tight timeline. The staff at California Wine Tours and Transportation were professional and quickly helped us find a solution. The driver showed up on time and was easy to communicate with when the bus was stuck in Friday afternoon/evening traffic. Bus was clean and appeared relatively new.

Brent was phenomenal; very professional, knowledgeable, and fun. We would absolutely do another tour with him!

CWT is the absolute best wine tour driving company! I called over 25 companies before booking CWT just to be sure! I always came back to CWT feeling the most comfortable and confident in their services! Our driver, Mark, was always on time, willing to wait for us longer than expected, and always greeted us with a smile! We were a group of 15 ladies having a blast while hopping from wine tour to restaurant to wine tour! Extremely pleased with the whole CWT staff, vehicle choices, and professionalism!

We hired CWT for my friend's bachelorette party and it was honestly the best decision we made all weekend. It made traveling from the airport to our Airbnb and all the wineries our driver took us to so easy and comfortable. We especially loved having Tommy as our driver. He was the sweetest!

We used CWT for our wedding guest transportation in Napa to and from the venue. We loved the professionalism and our driver Sam was awesome! If we ever have a large event again in the Napa area that we needed transportation we know who we're calling.

I wish you could score a company 10/5. This company is fantastic. We had 3 drivers Mark, Andy & Brett- all wonderful. Each of them answered questions about Napa & the surrounding areas and offered us great local advice. They helped keep us on schedule while also ensuring we had so much fun. We always felt safe and comfortable riding with these guys. If we return, we will be calling California Wine Tours again. Worth every penny.

Had a great time wine tasting for my daughter's bachelorette party on this bus! It was roomy, clean and our driver Jim was awesome! Would highly recommend!

I hired CWT & Transportation for my 21st birthday and everything was amazing! Kendric was SO helpful in planning the perfect day for my friends and I. Our party van came stocked with champagne & our driver Joe was the BEST! Everyone had so much fun, we hope to come back soon!! I would 100% recommend using CWT. Thank you Kendric, Joe, and CWT for making my 21st birthday so special!

California Wine Tours endangers bikers by blocking bike lanes on busy urban streets. Don't use California Wine Tours, choose a transit company that complies with parking and traffic laws.

We had the BEST getaway and California Wine Tours made it so easy for us to enjoy without the worry of having to figure out where to go next. Jamie helped us to plan the whole day from start to finish and even set up all our reservations for us. Our driver, Brent, was super knowledgeable and was so kind and helpful throughout the day. He even took pictures for us so we could enjoy without having to think about anything extra! We would definitely recommend checking out California Wine Tours! We will be using them again next time we visit!

Thank you Jamie, Joe and Brent! We've been with you multiple times when visiting Napa wineries and every time you have gone above and beyond to make our experience amazing. We will be back soon! I can highly recommend California Wine Tours and Transportation if you are looking into a great day in Napa or Sonoma in visiting wineries. These people are top notch professionals and they will make sure that the day will exceed all your expectations.

We used Cal Wine Tours for my sister's 30th birthday for a trip through Napa and Sonoma with 20 of her friends, and we could not be happier! This was a very large number to accommodate for, and CWT made it so seamless. Our driver, Count, was on time, polite, and got us to our destinations safely. Working with Richard to set up our tour was wonderful; he was prompt in his communication and made the process as easy as possible. He was super helpful when recommending places that would take our large group size, and suggesting where we should have lunch and dinner. We cannot wait to book with them again and definitely recommend CTW!!!

My driver was Tommy he was very kind and super helpful would totally book again ! He really Made sure my birthday was a special day.

Jamie was amazing! She was always in communication and planned the best 2 day birthday trip ever! Will definitely use her expertise again!

We had a department cave dinner at Repris' winery for the holidays and California Wine Tours was our driver. They were great from the very beginning. Everything was flawless and their customer service was great. Thank you for a fun time!

The booking and confirmation process with Dan was easy and our driver Jim was awesome and got us everywhere we were going on time and safely.

Kendric was easy to work with and really on top of the organization! Marcus our driver was great and so much fun! Thanks CWT!

Ceaser was really amazing on our Wines Tour! This was the bus that picked us up from the ferry area and droped us off at the train station, picking us up again after another tour bus brought us back from Castello di Amorosa. Ceaser was funny, entertaining, and made us think about the area in a new way. He really made the ride fun and enjoyable, and our experience with him was much better than the driver from the winery. All in all great service, great driving and would definitely have enjoyed a full ride with him from SF had we not taken the ferry!

Let me just say I'm so thankful for California Wine Tours! You guys created and gave my girlfriend and I her brother and his girlfriend an experience of a lifetime. The entire staff down to our personal driver Thomas who was more than a driver to us. Thomas took pictures of us throughout our 6 hours when we didn't even know. I had booked for 4 hours but ended up adding more time because of the time that we had. We were able to go to 4 amazing wineries and have lunch. The organization and communication of CWT was top notch. Everyone from email, phone and text was just white glove service. This was my first time to Napa and it was a trip that I will remember forever. From providing a long list of recommended wineries, to calling in on the day to reserving spots for us and just going above and beyond. Thomas was a class act, he felt like family during our tour! We treated him to lunch and he was just a true professional that really made our trip what it was. Companies like CWT need more people like Thomas representing them. Thank you to Kendric for all the email communication and even Jaime on the day of calling and staying in touch with me. I couldn't have planned a more perfect tour myself! CWT will be the only company I recommend or use in the future! Thank you so much again for all that you did for us. Napa 2019 was a huge success thanks to the entire team. We had a beautiful black on black Chevrolet LTZ Suburban, never once did we have to wait from going to each of our stops, like I said if your looking for a vip treatment and to have an experience that will last a lifetime and create memories this is the company to use for your Napa wine tour. We were going to go on a Hot Air Balloon and I'm so glad I went with this option instead.

Special shout-out to Kendric for all the assistance you provided in making my reservation as easy as 1,2,3. I was recommended by a friend to use CWT when going to Napa. It was worth every second of it. We enjoyed having Thomas as our driver. He was very knowledgeable of the area and was also familiar about my home town. Both Kendric and Thomas were easy to talk to and get ahold of. I will definitely be using their services again in the future and so should you!

Excellent service. Our drivers for both airport rides were on time and very professional. We will definitely utilize their services in the future.

Had an amazing experience with California Wine Tours this past weekend! Jamie was so helpful and quick with responding to emails. Kendric was terrific with confirming all details prior to the event date. Our driver, Brent, was awesome!! So friendly and fun! We had a safe and absolutely amazing girls day thanks California Wine Tours! Can't wait to be able to use their services again!

Our driver Tommy was fabulous. He showed the perfect balance of courtesy and reserve by anticipating our needs but never being in the way or overly involved. The sprinter van was clean, stocked with everything we needed (champagne counts as a need) and comfortable. We felt completely at ease while on the road and got to every wine tasting on time. Tommy was also able to recommend a nice park where we could eat lunch, and drove us there between tastings. Truly an A+ experience.

California wine tours is absolutely amazing to work with! Jamie was so easy to work with and her communication was impeccable. She created a custom day that was so amazing and fun. Our driver Brent was such a nice guy. He went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. He was a great mix of professionalism, friendly, knowledgeable and supportive of our requests. This was worth every penny!

Incredible service! We loved having California Wine Tours at the helm of making our Napa trip a success. Their staff is super helpful, great customer service and ensured we had a wonderful time on our trip even during Covid. Felt incredible safe, clean and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. Will be using them when we return to wine country!

We used this scar service for the weekend. The driver was friendly and punctual. The car was always ready for us and equipped with our cold waters after wine tasting. Our driver Paul was excellent. The communication was excellent before our weekend. It was very easy to make a reservation. We highly recommend this shuttle service and we'll look forward to booking again.

California Wine Tours did an amazing job of helping my new husband and me plan and execute our first-ever trip to San Francisco, Sonoma, and Napa. Many thanks to Jamie for her wonderful and consistent communication. Thanks also to our drivers David W and Tommy L, who made us feel incredibly safe in their care during this Covid era. These 3 really made our trip incredibly special. Having never visited Wine Country before and being from a different part of the country, we were hesitant to spend a significant amount on transportation services. I cannot emphasize enough how much CWT was worth every single penny! They are truly a gem. This trip was for our Covid-friendly wedding and honeymoon. We hope to come back for future anniversary trips down the road and we will absolutely be calling CWT.

A big shout out to California Wine Tours! We reserved a private wine tour through them and we had an excellent experience. Our driver Brent was very knowledgeable on the area wineries, history, restaurants and places to see. He arrived on time and communicated to us consistently throughout the tour. He even took pictures of us and sent them right away. WHEN we come back we will definitely use California Wine Tours again.

California Wine Tours - the most professional tours in the valley impeccable customer service and total professionalism. Highly recommend there services, had one of their newest hires , tremendous knowledge of the Napa valley. Jim S.

The CWT team is the best in the business. Chauffuer Thomas is amazing. Thank you for everything.

Let me recount my booking horror with California Wine Tours: According to the one and only response I ever received from CWT the Vice President of the Company, Karen Dooley, was handling my reservation request. I base this off the signature on the email. - Submitted an online inquiry on August 27th, didn't hear anything back, so I sent one more on August 29th. I promptly received a quote, which disregarded everything I had stated in my original request. - August 29th, promptly wrote back to CWT, to thank them for getting back to me but if I could please get a quote for (fill in my itinerary here.). - September 3rd - Send another email to CWT because I haven't heard anything. - September 7th, left a voicemail for Karen Dooley, and sent an email. - September 8th, spoke to Sandy (the dispatcher) who told me she'd pass my info on to Kelly and Lisa, two sales gals who would contact me around 8:30am the next day (September 9th) - September 9th - at noon I called directly and spoke with Kendrick who has supposedly booked me a reservation. I'm already annoyed. This is ridiculous. I've submitted several other requests to other companies in hopes of getting something better at the last minute. Shame on you Karen Dooley for being such a poor representative of your company. Update - I was able to book with Nationwide Limousine Service, it took me less than an hour to get a quote and a reservation confirmed. Lisa from CWT called me and started to apologize for my experience but the call was dropped, twice in the middle of her talking. Thank you for the call Lisa, but I'm going to stick with Nationwide.

I planned a last-minute winetasting event and had the best experience ever. Jaime was super helpful in coordinating and keeping everything on track. Steve the driver, was hilarious and helped make sure our day went perfectly. I can't wait to use them again!

What a wonderful experience! Jamie and the full CWT team are excellent. Super professional, organized, friendly, and answered every question courteously. Would trust them with another big or small tour in a heartbeat! We did round trip pickup from Sacramento and visited 3 amazing wineries. Our driver Tommy was a gem, so kind and professional! Above and beyond service! Request him if he's available!
