Cycle Through the Vineyards
of Sonoma, California
What could be more exciting than biking through the Sonoma countryside with a small group of biking enthusiasts, visiting vineyards and farms along the way. Sonoma on a Bike (a newly formed high-end tour company) takes groups of just 12 guests on a luxury six-day tour of Sonoma County.
The tour includes Dry Creek, Alexander and Sonoma Valleys, Bodega Bay, Calley of the Moon, Sonoma Mountain and past the Russian River and famous Redwood trees, as you travel along the Pacific Coast. The tour includes wine tastings at celebrated wineries, meals at high-end restaurants using locally sourced ingredients, stops at local gardens and farms and elegant lodging each evening. Fall itineraries often witness a portion of the grape harvest as well. The biking tour is rated moderate with riders traveling 20-40 miles of surfaced roads each day.
