Is Napa / Sonoma Wine Country Day-Trip worth it in a day?

Worth itIn a day

Even on a tight schedule, Napa / Sonoma Wine Country Day-Trip earns the hours.

Allow Full day.

Rolling vine-striped hills, estate tasting rooms, and long lunches — the quintessential Northern California indulgence, especially good with a guided tour so no one has to drive. The catch: it's a long there-and-back day, tasting fees and tours add up fast, and summer can be hot and busy.
