You now have two full days at leisure to explore the vineyards, villages and attractions of the California Wine Country. We suggest spending one full day in the Napa Valley and one full day in Sonoma, to appreciate the differing charms of each and to fully savour their world-class wines and fantastic restaurants. You'll find most estates welcome visitors for wine tasting sessions, and many will allow you to enjoy a picnic in the grounds. Don't miss the Copia Centre in Napa, where you can learn more about California's culinary heritage.
Leave the Wine Country behind you today, as you head back to San Francisco Airport, where you return your rental car and your tour comes to an end.
