Steve did an excellent job of hosting our tour to Muir Woods and Wine Country. He was very knowledgable about the vineyards and the key word of the day was flexibility. Steve was open to options about doing different things and changing the order of planned activities. Only suggested improvement would be to slow the van down on the winding curvers in and out of Muir Woods.

It was a full day of fun. The bus driver really made it the best of days. We had enough time with both the Muir Woods and the Win Country. The wineries that we went to were great and very informative. having lunch in Sanoma was perfect and just looking around that lovely little town was perfect. The whole day was great!

We had a wonderful experience. Our tour guide (Mitch) was superb. He met everyone and got a sense of what each group was looking for from their time with the tour. He then planned accordingly to make it a day worth doing again.
My traveling companion and I got a bit lost walking the paths in Muir Woods, we took the ocean view path and it takes about an hour and a half just to get to the top. We did not know we were going to the top, we thought that we would loop around and come back to the center. No one, including the guide was upset about the mishap.
Our guide made sure we had a great time at each winery we visited. Suggested places to have lunch and just joined in on the fun of it all. If your taking this tour, and I recommend that you do, ask for Mitch as a tour guide. He was the best.
I do not want to miss the opportunity to mention the attentiveness of all the staff at Incredible Tours, they returned every call and email with in an hour or so of my sending them. Made sure we had a great priced place to park for the day of the tour. Fantastic crew. Yes, do take a tour with them.
