Full-Day Bike Tour with Winery Picnic

by Sonoma Valley Bike Tours

$169–$189/personStarts in Sonoma

The short answer

A guided e-bike day out of Sonoma town that treats the picnic as a centrepiece: a deli-catered lunch on winery grounds between tastings, plus cheese and olive oil stops. It's an easy, flat ride aimed at relaxed wine tasters rather than serious cyclists. Price: Picnic lunch included in tour price.

The quiet, shaded picnic grove at General Vallejo's Victorian-era estate is a peaceful escape a short walk or bike ride from the Plaza, paired with a $3 look inside the furnished house. It is strictly a food-only picnic: State Parks prohibits alcohol throughout Sonoma State Historic Park, so save the wine for the Plaza.
