Sonoma is one of California's premier wine making regions yet it has remained
relatively untouched by tourists compared to its more popular neighbor, Napa
Valley (only 5 miles apart). It is said that Sonoma Valley gets its name from
the Miwok Native American Indians. The Miwok named it the valley or "many moons"
while on their walk through the Sonoma and the Mayacama mountains the moon was
said to raise seven times.

My experience was better than I could have ever imagined it. Our driver was sweet, helpful, and understanding. Thank you very much for allowing us to do this. I can't wait to tell the people at Cline how great it was to be on the other side of the bar, in your company's hands.
We did your Muir Woods Tour today with Gavin as our guide. It was absolutely brilliant and we would like to express our gratitude to your company for supplying such a well informed, pleasant mannered young man. He was very polite on time and nothing was a problem for him. We will highly recommend your company if any of our friend decide to holiday in San Francisco from Australia. Once again thank you very much.
