Craft your perfect day in Wine Country. Tailored tours, hidden gems, and genuine hospitality.
Let me be your guide. Unlike most wine tours, I fully customize the experience for each guest, ensuring they have the best day possible in Wine Country. After booking, I send my guests a questionnaire that I reference to plan their day based on their wine preferences, budget, and overall experience.
Backed by years of hospitality experience at world-class wineries, I possess unique industry connections to unlock doors even the general public can't reach.
Having personally visited over 300 wineries myself, I have a wealth of knowledge to connect you with your new favorite hidden gems.
Easygoing and passionate about hosting, I love sharing my love for Wine Country and showing you a truly unforgettable time.

Perfect In Every Way

5.00When we contacted Chris long before our trip to Napa, he sent us a questionnaire to help him understand our preferences and gave us choices based on our feedback. He couldn't have planned a more perfect tour for us! One winery we chose, and three he chose for us. All were off-the-beaten path, with wines we really enjoyed! We never would have found them on our own. Chris is so knowledgeable about wine and the area, he is personable, and fun to spend a day with. He picked up a picnic lunch for us, which we were allowed to eat at one of the wineries while chatting with the staff. It was a memorable day, and we will be happy to recommend him to any friends traveling to the Napa area. Now we are eagerly awaiting the delivery of the wines we bought! Thank you, Chris, for a lovely day!

5.00We loved our experience with Chris and Lea! They planned the best two days in Napa we could ask for. They have great connections in the area and are very knowledgeable about the industry. You need to book them for your next trip! They are also a lot of fun!
Fantastic Healdsburg Wine Tour

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00I would recommend Chris again and again! I wasn't familiar with Healdsburg and he recommended a mix of wineries to match our interests. Beyond that he and his delightful wife provided a beautiful lunch for us at the perfect winery for a picnic. It was my sister's birthday and they even had a cake and candles for her. Top notch! Book Chris, you won't be disappointed!
Fantastic day with a wonderful host

Exceptional Attention

5.00Chris was fantastic! He was very easy to communicate with, he was organized, on time, very well versed, and so accommodating. We had a van for 7 of us, so was very comfortable. He took us to 3 lovely wineries and ended it off with a brewery. We learned so much about the area and had a most lovely lunch prepared by his wife! He went above and beyond as there were some who did not drink wine and at the end of the day recommended a terrific restaurant and dropped us right there! Thank you Chris so very much for a truly lovely day!!!
Incredible Tour of Sonoma!

- Review from Viator
5.00Where to start? Chris was an incredible host for our wine tour day in Sonoma County! He helps plan your trip to exactly what your group will enjoy and can find wineries that most would never know of. Chris is very responsive and easy to work with. His wife is a chef and you can choose to have a picnic lunch hand made by her, which we did, and it was absolutely delicious! He picked smaller wineries that had such personal touches to them. To top it off, a phone was forgotten on the bus and Chris dropped it off the next day at a winery we were visiting. It was above and beyond service. If we make our way back to the area, we will book with Chris for sure!
Great day!

5.00We had such a great time with Chris! He picked us up from our hotel in Healdsburg and drove us around to some beautiful spots nearby. Then we went to three vineyards that he picked based on our preferences. We loved how small and unique they were and walked away with a few bottles of wine! Chris was super knowledgeable and also fun to hang out with all day. We highly recommend this tour and couldn’t imagine doing one with anyone else!
Take the tour!

Personable & Informative!

5.00Chris is a fantastic host to take your group around to wine tastings! I really appreciated how personable he was in conversation. He comfortably weaved together information about wine making, added color on each vineyard, and politely kept us on-schedule (not always the easiest task). His wife also made us delicious salads and sandwiches to enjoy at our tastings. I highly recommend him for any group going to wine country!
