In the morning, we'll tour San Francisco where you'll see Union Square, Chinatown, North Beach, Lombard Street (Crookedest Street in the World), Telegraph Hill, Fisherman's Wharf, the Presidio, Golden Gate Park, Victorian homes at Alamo Square, Haight-Ashbury, and other sights as time permits.

In the afternoon, we're off to wine country. You can lunch at one of the many restaurants surrounding Sonoma's Mexican-era plaza. After lunch, we'll visit the Carneros Region of southern Sonoma and Napa Counties and have time to stop at a minimum of two wineries.

The tour is private so I can customize it so you visit sights you most want to see and taste wines you are likely to enjoy.
