Came to Mendocino for the weekend and we caught the 730 skunk train into the Blair Bar in the…read morewoods. Such a fun and awesome experience. We chose to stand on the outside deck of the train. It was a bit windy, I recommend bringing a jacket. The train ride to the Blair Bar was 20 minutes. Once we arrived the views were spectacular! It wasn't time for sunset just yet but once the sun started going down the lights became more vibrant. We immediately walked over to the bar to grab a drink. We ordered 2 old fashioneds and they were nicely poured with a good amount of whiskey. There was live music, and tons of seating around warmers and large fire pits. They offered s'mores kits and light snacks. The pits do get a bit crowded. We couldn't get a seat until the 9pm train left. Which opened up some spots around the fire pits. The whole experience was great. It made me feel like I was in a scene of Virgin River! Definitely recommend if you're ever visiting the Mendocino or Fort Bragg area of Northern California.

For over 20 years I wanted to ride the rails. My son and I finally did this yesterday and we loved…read moreit. The newly designed and patented rail bikes just started being used 2 weeks ago. They are smooth, quiet and comfortable with full back support. Previous bikes had a tractor type seat with no back support. The new seats are firm so you might want to bring some padding. I talked with them about this and they were very receptive to me. Since they are electric with pedal assist, we decided to use the electric motor the entire distance. That way we focused on the experience 100% and it was delightful. A perfect, personalized lunch was provided, which added to the experience. Safety is top priority with them so with several road crossings, some with crossing arms/signals and some without, excellent care was taken to make the crossings safely. Our guide was Atlas and he was training 2 new employees. Everything went perfectly! All three of them were so kind and constantly wanted to attend to everyone's needs. I recommend you take the rail bike tour, sit back and enjoy the ride. Just imagine the amount of work that went into making the rail line over 100+ years ago. With the bikes, you sit just above the rails and can marvel at what it took to build this and any rail line. You will have a new appreciation for all railroads. You wind your way through the hills and I believe I read there is a section of the line that winds over 8 miles to actually travel a straight line of 1 mile. It is an engineering marvel. Enjoy!!!!! Please be sure to tip your guides

I wish I could give Alex and Tour Mendocino more stars than just 5. This was such an amazing day!!…read moreAs my mom loved on the opposite coast I couldn't go see her for her birthday. So this trip was a belated bday gift. Started off with delicious mimosas for the 20 minute ride to our first winery! The itinerary that Alex curated was top notch!! Rhoderer, Navarro Family vineyards for lunch, Goldeneye, and finally ending at Toulouse. - which had the most amazing views of the valley and the most delicious cake that he surprised my Mom with!! It was delectable!! The day was warm and sunny and the wine was pouring!! If you're looking to wine taste in the Anderson valley make sure you call Alex and Tour Mendocino.

Definitely worth the visit for the beautiful views. Personally, I wasn't a fan of their wine, but…read morewe did end up purchasing a bottle of their signature "It's My Fault" in the white to drink while we were there. I've had better $10 wines, but that's just my opinion. They do sell some charcuterie items in their store which we did purchase. There was packaging from the items we purchased along with plates and napkins that were handed to us. It was odd there no trash cans on site. We had to dispose of our trash in the small restroom trash they had. I'd say visit for the view, do a tasting for $15 (light on the pours though) and stay to soak it all in.

Their "Taste of the Day" takes you on an ATV ride through their family vineyards up a hill to a picnic table that overlooks Anderson Valley, orchards, and grazing sheep. The view is absolutely breathtaking! Sarah and Guy host most of the tastings themselves. They are a multi-generational winery that have been growing grapes for a long time. It's so great to know that you are supporting a family instead of a wine corporation and they are truly the nicest and most kind-hearted people. This is truly an incredible experience! We sipped a variety of quality wines, had some light snacks, and soaked in the incredible views! We purchased many of our favorites to enjoy at a latter date. Highly recommend to all when visiting Anderson Valley! Tips: *They only offer one tasting a day so my recommendation would be to reach out to them through their website well in advance and plan any other tastings you may go to that day around this one. *The tastings are not offered year round so go onto their website to see if they are open during the month you are visiting Anderson Valley. *If you are going in the summer months, make sure to wear sunscreen.
