Planning a Trip to California Wine Country
By Dane Masters | October 24, 2008
For those who are anxious to explore the California wine country, there are a host of options available for you to help in planning. You can chose a self-planning guide that will help you to pick the regions you want to visit and taste. Areas like Sonoma Valley, Napa Valley, Santa Barbara and Medocino offer great family vineyards along with walking tours, wine-making seminars as well as many spectacular tasting opportunities.
Since you don't want to be caught drinking and driving while touring the wine country, your first concern should be transportation. Choose from a variety of options: bus, limo, jeep, train or travel in style in a hot air balloon. No matter how tight your budget id you should be able to find adequate transportation.
If you don't want to just limit yourself to wine tours and tastings you can find great tours that offer other activities such as meals, dinner theatre or even mountain biking. If you want to relax and enjoy, feel free to book yourself some spa accommodations. Booking tours online is a breeze and you can customize a trip to be perfectly suited to you. If you are in for a bit of adventure you can even book a surprise tour where you will never know what will happen next! And if at any time you want to change your tour this should be no problem.
Start out planning your wine country tour by researching the places you want to visit. Look for vineyards that offer you what you are looking for, whether it be tours or tastings or something unique. Check out pictures online and see what other visitors had to say. Be sure to double check what times of the year the vineyards are open, as all of them have different growing and harvesting seasons, so you will want to make sure that the vineyards you choose will have something to offer you.
The possibilities are endless and can be as unique as you want. If a romantic getaway is what you're looking for, then possibly a quaint bed and breakfast surrounded by panoramic vineyard views would be just the ticket! It is also possible to fit in other attractions as well, depending on the area you plan on visiting. Many of the most popular tours fill up quickly, so do your research and book well in advance. With whatever amount of time and money you have available, there is a unique experience awaiting you in California wine country!
