This was our first time in Sonoma and we weren't sure where to start so we booked the full day adventure it and it was worth every penny! Emily is the most wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide and we had the best day biking the back roads of Sonoma with her and our new friend who was also on our tour. We had no idea how much we'd learn and just how much fun we would have! Neither of us are regular bikers, but with the e-bikes we kept up without any issues. The wineries and cheese shops were high quality and perfectly spaced apart throughout the day. This will always be our first recommendation to anyone planning a trip to wine country! read more

Rented electric bikes here with friends and the service was amazing! Both women who helped us on 6/28/25 went above and beyond. They provided us excellent instructions on the use of the bikes and Google map links to all the destinations we had in mind. They chose the routes carefully so that we could enjoy a relaxing, beautiful bike ride. Highly recommend! read more

Nearly impossible to describe what a wonderful day we had touring around Sonoma with Hunt on the electric bikes.... He became part of our family that day! His knowledge of the area and his fantastic relationships with all the folks we visited with were in evidence. We went on a Segway tour with our "Cayman Crew" in 2016 and it was absolutely fantastic, but his time it was over the top. If your in Sonoma, make the time and do the tour, it will be the most memorable part of your visit without a doubt. read more

If you are only in Sonoma for a day, you NEED to take a tour with Sonoma Adventures. We had Emily as our tour guide, and had such a blast biking through Sonoma and trying out different wines. We visited Tin Barn Vineyard, Buena Vista Winery, Vella Cheese Company of California, Figone's Olive Oil, and Sonoma Springs Brewery. Tin Barn Vineyards and Buena Vista Winery were extremely different from one another - but that is the beauty of wines and visiting! We learned a great deal about how wine is grown through Emily and also had great (and affordable) tasting options. The cheese tasting and the olive oil tasting were fantastic! They were fun activities to do as well. If you buy anything from the vineyards (which, we obviously had to), Sonoma Adventures had a car to pick up all of the goodies and it was brought to their store at the end of our trip ready to go :) No hassle necessary! The bike routes were smooth and mostly through back roads (so we felt safe the entire time). Emily is extremely knowledgeable of the area (she was born and raised here in Sonoma!) and had such a great energy and sense of humor. My husband and I are STILL smiling from our day spent with Emily and others who biked with us. Highly recommend this bike tour! read more

Hunt Bailie, owner of Sonoma Adventures, is fantastic! I purchased a bike from him several years ago, and he has provided excellent service the few times I have needed it. Hunt is a friendly, local guy who runs a great business here in town. Sonoma Valley Bike Tours and Sonoma Adventures offers bike rentals and tours in Sonoma Valley, as well as great deals on bikes when updating their inventory. read more

Last Saturday was our first time joining a bike tour and we had a blast! It was definitely the highlight of our trip. Our guide Emily was very friendly and engaging. We loved being led on the bike path, around the neighborhood and through the Sonoma wine country without having to worry which direction we should be going had we done this on our own. We visited two wineries and a cheese factory. We spent a decent amount of time at each wineries and didn't feel rushed. It was hot out so the time spent at each place was perfect to be able to relax and socialize with the rest of our group. We really enjoyed our day with Sonoma Adventure. This company is highly recommended and the tour was well worth it! read more

Great friendly staff and guides. Leisurely bike ride with Interesting places to visit and excellent wineries.

Super helpful. Rented electric bikes which were expensive especially since we only had for a couple hours but paid for all day. The bikes were good, helmets provided and they will give you a map, tell you places you can go. They are on a main road which makes it harder to get to the wineries. But they have a back way they will tell where to go on a back trail. We had to ask someone on that trail or we would have been lost. But you ride through there get to a neighborhood and find dirt roads and eventually get to one. Long ride day but I would suggest to only get the electric ones unless you want to really get a great workout. The staff was stellar. Thanks. read more

Please take a moment and go on the best bike tour on your life! From the time you walk in to check in you feel welcomed!!! They have everything prepared for you; all you have to do is follow along with Emily and the rest is super easy! The ride was breathtaking, the information about wine was fascinating and Emily our guide was not only knowledgeable, she makes you feel special as if you are the only one in the tour!! Thank you Sonoma Adventures for giving our group the best tour experience!! read more

Took a full day bike winery tour led by Hunt. We had a blast! Do not skip this experience. Biking is a great way to see some parts of Sonoma you probably wouldn't otherwise. We went to two wineries, a cheese factory, and an olive oil store. Hunt was chill, flexible, and never rushed us at all. He is a wealth of knowledge of the Sonoma area, and it felt like he knew everyone all over town! We bought several bottles of wine from the tastings, which his staff picked up for us and brought back so we wouldn't have to carry on our bikes. And at the end we were able to buy a specially designed cardboard box from them to take our wine home in, as checked luggage. Since I just arrived back home, I can attest that this box worked perfectly for the plane and definitely saved us a lot of headache. read more

We really enjoyed our guided tour Sonoma with our guide Mike and the team from Sonoma Adventures. Mike was extremely accommodating to our multiple requests. We appreciated his expertise on the area, the wineries and wine making process. His tutorial on wine from the middle of a vineyard was really interesting and informative. I highly recommend Mike and Sonoma Adventures. read more

We had a wonderful time on our bike tour with Phyllis. I come to Napa often and can't believe it took me so long to do this. This is now on my list of a tour we will do every year. It was nice to be outdoors everyday and our guide Phyllis did a good job keeping everyone safe. She had a great depth of wine knowledge as well. read more

Amazing! Super knowledgeable about all things Sonoma and they are amazing tour guide guide. A must do to check out Sonoma!

A great activity that I'd recommend to anyone staying in the Sonoma area! My wife and I visited in the summer of 2018 on a last-minute change of plan (due to wildfires), and we picked out a bike tour through wine country on a whim. It ended up being a really fun day for us. Our guide was Hunt, who was friendly, polite, and very much felt like a friend on the trip with us. The route was scenic, and though it was not strenuous, Hunt was always checking in with us to make sure we were fine. No particular wine expertise was necessary (we knew quite little about wine, really). The wineries were enjoyable, we got a fun variety of different wines to try, and towards the end of the trip we stopped at a great little cheese shop and tried a platter, and bought some to bring home. Although it was perfectly fine as a couples' activity, I think it would be the kind of thing that would be most fun with a small group of friends, riding and talking together. read more

Absolutely incredible way to spend a wine tasting day in Sonoma. Emily our guide was amazing, incredibly knowledgeable and informative on top of being personable, accommodating and entertaining. It was a wonderful adventure!! read more

Stellar service and great quality bikes. Smooth check in process and nice COVID protocols. They gave us a map and we loved all the recommendations. Thank you! read more

We were looking to just rent some bikes for the day. We did not take advantage of their tour. The service was GREAT. The person working was extremely knowledgeable of the area. She listened to what we were planning on doing and offered suggestions of alternative routes explaining why, very nicely, we didn't want to do what we were proposing. She gave us very detailed directions for where to ride. The bikes were very comfortable and in good shape. The whole experience was wonderful, I would highly recommend them. The price was great just to top everything off! read more

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! 6 of us from Vegas came out to celebrate a bachelor party and couldn't have asked for a more perfect adventure. Emily was so amazing throughout the entire tour. The wine, cheese, bikes and company throughout was 5 stars, 10 out of 10, two thumbs up! HIGHLY recommended. Thank you so much! read more

Let me start off by saying THANK YOU to Hunt at Sonoma Adventures! Hunt put together an amazing self guided tour that included 3 wineries, a picnic lunch, a cheese tasting, and a olive oil tasting. He also provided me with a map with step by step directions so I wouldn't get lost. Moreover, he gave me is cell just in case I had any questions or concerns. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to plan either a group or self guided wine tour! Thanks again for everything! I had a wonderful day! read more

Best place to rent bikes in Sonoma. We rented 8 bikes on New Years day. Hunt drove right to our hotel, sized us all up, adjusted the bikes to fit us, and had us on our way in no time. Many places were closed or didn't have enough, or the right sized bikes. The setup wa quick and easy. Afterwards, we just locked up the bikes at our hotel and that was it. The rest of our time was spent riding the bike path that runs behind downtown and connects you with several local wineries and food spots. Great way to add some light exercise with all the local indulgences! read more

Reviewing the reviews - we are going to dog pile. Hunt gave us a bike tour. This history major and Sonoma native gave us insight into the area. Awesome time and highly recommended. Just when I thought a hill was getting tough, he would stop and point out an interesting fact. ( And time to catch our breath). You need to book this tour. read more

Traveled to Sonoma with a group of friends and we all agreed that this bicycle tour was definitely one of the highlights of the trip! Hunt and Doug were so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We visited two wineries and a cheese shop on this tour. Would definitely recommend this to anyone, even to those who have not rode a bike in a while! Great experience and made for a fun filled, memorable afternoon! read more

Loved our half day tour with Emily! Really enjoyed the scenery and the back roads and the winery tours. The electric assist bikes were great! Even if you don't need them,they help you not break a sweat going up hill to one of the wineries. Fun tasting the grapes in the field and having a couple of hours on our own after the tour to explore the area. read more

Hunt & team were great - they handled our large & somewhat unruly group w grace & great customer service & great patience! Thx Hunt & team!!! read more

Hunt was a great tour guide and truly completed the experience. It was an organized but laid back bike tour and Hunt handled every situation that came at us gracefully! Would highly recommend this as a way to explore and learn read more

This was awesome and the best part of our trip. My partner and I ended up being the only people on our tour (and it's our anniversary) so that made it extra special. Emily did a spectacular job as our host. She was extremely knowledgeable and easy going, and provided us choices for our day. We went to 2 great wineries and had a delicious lunch! We forgot the cheese factory was part of the tour so that was a pleasant surprise. I highly recommend this tour and Emily, we would book with them again in a heartbeat. Cheers! read more

There isn't enough stars for Emily!!! If you want to travel with a knowledgeable, passionate-professional... Book this adventure!!!? Consummate teacher...from Segway; to grapes off of the vine. We tested levels on the refractometer!! (?) hahaha This company, This person...excels at recanting history, helping a novice grasp the vast world of wine-making/wine-loving, and pulling you into a great escape. All while keeping you grounded-on rolling wheels. Emily led us into nooks, crannies, and glorious bubble rooms, that we would not experience without Sonoma Adventures! She can ride a Segway whilst looking/talking backwards. She consistently pointed out terrain changes and was fully aware of the space around us. Attentive isn't a big enough word. We will cherish the people we met, stories we fell in love with: Nancy and Diane. And a person we were honored to spend the day with. Thank you Sonoma Adventures: for creating this unique excursion. Thank you Emily: For being a guide, a teacher, and lover of Sonoma. #TeamEm! read more

I had requested two bikes but accidentally booked them for a day later than I actually wanted them. I didn't realize my mistake it until the night before, shot Yuni and Hunt an email, and they were able to rectify the situation immediately. On very short notice, they had delivered the bikes to my B&B before I even started eating breakfast. Hunt arrived with the bikes and gave me a map and some recommendations for the area. The bikes were in excellent condition and had front-mounted bags for small items, and one bike even had a larger bag in which I was able to fit a wine bottle that I had bought. We mainly biked around the Kenwood area and were able to hit up 6 tasting rooms at a leisurely pace. No problems biking around or finding a place to park the bikes. We tried to use the backroads as much as possible but sometimes the highway was best option so be sure to exercise caution when using the shoulder. Highly recommend renting here, this place is awesome! read more

This is my very first yelp review ever. Two of my girlfriends and I were visiting Sonoma for a girls weekend. We are all moms so we are up early and want to take advantage of our time away by doing fun adventurous activities. We went to the concierge at the Sonoma Renaissance Lodge and Spa and we saw the bike tours postcard and asked about it. It was Friday and she called Hunt and booked the tour for Saturday at 930am. It was easy to pay at the hotel online and then I immediately got a confirmation email and text from Hunt. We met outside the hotel at the bike tent just to the right of the hotel, footsteps out of the lobby. Hunt introduced himself and had Emily with him as well. They had "Sherpa" bags on their bikes and small zipper bags for us on the front of our bikes. So purses, mini backpacks, jackets, etc... all fit. The bikes were easy to use with simple gears and we all had helmets. Hunt was super friendly and let us know he was married with kids so we immediately felt at ease with him. Emily was also super friendly making conversation about her Sonoma upbringing. The ride was not on too many busy streets but on the couple minutes when it was it was Hunt made sure we were safe and informed all of us exactly how to ride on the bike path. Our first stop was a "history" of Sonoma where we learned about missionaries and the California state flag and other fun facts. We stopped at a house from the 1800s to learn about it and it was at the end of a beautifully paved road in between gorgeous fields. From there we traveled to the 1st winery Sebastiani with a gorgeous fountain and stone structure closely resembling Tuscany. We had a wine tasting that we paid for separately. Hunt made sure he took wonderful photos and videos of us at every stop and they looked professional. After that we moved on to a vineyard field where Hunt educated us on the grapes and science of making wine when the grapes are at their peak. We learned all about how the different types of grapes and even used a special tool to measure them. Then we biked to Buena Vista winery where we encountered one small hill but the pay off was the most gorgeous grounds we've seen and a real fun and exciting spot. Most of the guests were dressed in old timey clothes and they definitely were in the spirit of "Buena Vista" which was rich with history. After our tasting which was 2 for 1 since we came with Hunt and there were 3 of us but they only charged us one tasting fee, Hunt's lovely wife met us and brought a delicious picnic of sandwiches, salad with chicken for our gluten free friend, and organic strawberries and grapes and cookies. We set at the picnic tables on the property and really enjoyed the time with leftover wine from the tasting, then one of the employees brought over more wine for us that was complimentary. It was a delicious lunch with fun conversation. We continued to tour the beautiful castle like buildings and cellars. Hunt educated us on the family that started Buena Vista and all it's intriguing history. It was such an interesting and fun place. From there we went to a small house privately owned winery called Peter Cellars. A former software salesman from London owns the property and makes gold and silver medal wines. He was lovely to chat with and knew Hunt well. We enjoyed that as our last stop and even bought a few bottles since you can't find them in stores. Our way back was easy and fun and made me realize how much fun it is to do adventurous things on bikes. Recommend this bike tour with Hunt 100% if you have a free morning and afternoon. Hands down best part of our trip. Hunt also gave us excellent recommendations for dinner in the square that evening. Everywhere we went we told them Hunt said us and everyone knew him. The bike tour is worth every penny and so much fun!!! read more

We have done bike tours in places throughout the world and this was one of the most fun and laid-back tours we've experienced. Doug is a longtime Sonoma resident and former mayor, so he knows everyone and just about everything to do with the wine industry in the area. The tour was 9 miles of bike paths and country roads to three area wineries, Gundlach Bundschu, Buena Vista, and Bartholomew Park. All three have different charm and Doug knows the staff well and gets VIP treatment for his guests. Buena Vista was amazing and his wife Penny brought us a fabulous picnic lunch there. She is a wonderful person as well and their hospitality was terrific. We did not have a visit to the cheese shop as it is closed on Sunday, but that meant more time to linger over the wines! Highly recommend Goodtimes for a different type of Sonoma experience than simply driving to vineyards. Next time, we may have Doug do a custom tour in Napa or another area nearby. read more

Best day! Super fun and Hunt was very knowledgeable of the area, the people and the wine! Everyone knew Hunt and we were treated very well at the tasting rooms. I will "revisit" Sonoma Adventure! read more

My family and I were in town for the holidays, and we organized a winery tour on bikes for about 22 of us. This was easily the best day of our trip! Hunt was really peppy and positive and super flexible dealing with multiple needs and personalities. He somehow remembered all of our names and easily made the trip special for each of us. It was the perfect amount of active, relaxing, and informative. FIVE STARS!! read more

We had a great experience with Sonoma Adventures! Yuni had everything ready when we got there and was so prepared! She reviewed the maps with us and sent helpful links to keep us on the right path! She had suggestions for lunch, which saved us during the day! We did have one issue with a bike tire, but we called and they were there with a new bike and a ride to our next stop to make sure we stayed on track with our day! Definitely would recommend this shop again! read more

Wanted to share the great time we had with area native Hunt and Sonoma Adventures. Found these guys while searching for things to do in Sonoma. Hunt lead our group of five barely 60 year olds on a cool tour of some of Sonoma's older neighborhoods, beautiful countryside and eventually to the Gundlach Bundschu and Buena Vista wineries. First of all the bicycles were of high quality and in great working order. Hunt was very patient with the group, constantly checking in with us individually to make sure we were OK. His knowledge of the area, its history and the wine industry was top notch. He provided extensive backgrounds on both wineries and was clearly welcome in both places as we pretty much had free run of the winery properties including the wine caves. If you can hook up with these guys on a weekday. We were lucky enough to ride with Hunt on a Thursday which meant we had a small group, there was not much traffic and it seemed like we had the wineries to ourselves. read more

I did this tour on 4/28/2012 with a friend, and it was outstanding! We visited three wineries -- Gundlach Bundschu, Buena Vista, and Bartholomew Park -- and the Vella Cheese Company while biking through beautiful Sonoma on a perfect day. Doug, our tour guide and former Mayor of Sonoma, was incredibly helpful and passionate about the area, the people, and the wine. From the bike paths to the open roads to the wineries, Doug knew everyone which made me feel at home and certainly helped us get fast service at all of the wineries. In fact, at the Buena Vista Winery we had our tasting in a private room usually reserved for members because of Doug. It felt like he truly enjoys what he does. For food Doug's wife Penny met us at about 1:30PM at Bartholomew Park and laid out an incredible lunch on a picnic table at the winery. The sandwiches and homemade cookies were fantastic (not to mention the two bottles of wine we had just sampled earlier in the day)! The atmosphere could not be beat. Doug only takes up to 6 people on the tour and that is how many we had. Between the biking, tasting, and lunching together, we got to know the other people on the trip which made the entire thing even more enjoyable. And biking through Sonoma is the way to go! If you can bike at all and even marginally enjoy biking you should do this trip. It is not like driving through at 40mph. While biking you can really get up close and personal with Sonoma and drink in the beauty. read more

Awesome people amazing day filled with wine, beer and Bikes!
