My wife always wanted to do the wine tasting in Napa/Sonoma by bike, but at mid 50s for our 25th anniversary we wanted a good balance not guzzling or drafting, although JP our guide would have been happy ripping through the hills on his carbon frame or teaching us the flora and fauna and wine country knowledge at our leisurely...

What a great way to tour around wine country! We booked a cycling wine tour of Napa Valley and were not disappointed. From the moment we booked, Getaway Adventures was great. Zack was helpful over the phone planning our trip and JP, our guide, was awesome! JP was very knowledgeable about wine production and the area. He took us to... More

This was our first trip to Napa and my husband and I wanted to make it special. We chose the pedal and paddle tour with Getaway Adventures based on trip advisor reviews. This review is long overdue. We had an absolutely fantastic day with Jesse in September of 2011. We have high expectations and have travelled all around the world... More

Our experience with the Sip N' Cycle tour was everything we had hoped it would be. The day was filled with easy riding, maybe 10-12 miles, several stops at great wineries, a very knowledgeable guide, and great weather. Our leader Tom, and his assistant, Casey were the best! They focused on each of us the entire day to ensure our... More

We rented a couple of hybrids from the Getaway Adventures' shop just across the river from downtown Napa (on Post Street). The bikes were in good shape and the daily rate was pretty cheap. We took off east on Coombsville Road and were "out in it" within ten minutes. The vineyards, the orchards, the ranches and farms, the rolling hills... More

This was my very first visit to Napa, and I thoroughly enjoyed a Sunday ride with Tommy and another couple from San Francisco. Tommy was an excellent tour guide--so personable and knowledgeable about the area and the wineries that I felt we were fast friends by the time the tour was finished! His personal touch was highlighted with the picnic... More

My wife and I called Getaway Adventures on very short notice on a Monday evening and booked a bike/kayak adventure for the next day. We rode bikes (very casually) from about 9:30 - 1:30, visiting 3 wineries, making stops along the way, getting Wine 101 lessons, great tastings and great lunch outside. We then rode down to the Russian River... More

There's only so much wine you can taste when you're in Sonoma. As great as it all is, after a while, we wanted a break from the wine -- but not the gorgeous scenery. Getaway Adventures was great. They set up a "paddle and peddle" for us -- we kayaked down the Napa River, biked a bit (well, my husband... More

Our guide for the day was Tommy Thompson and he was incredible. We could not have hoped for a nicer, more informative person than him. He was very helpful in all parts of the experience and made it truly memorable. Anyone who enjoys adventure MUST do a kayak tour with Getaway Adventures and Tommy as your guide!! More
