Specialties

Our day trips include pick up and drop off in San Francisco. Experience Northern California’s wine country in an exciting new way, by pedaling through it first-​hand. Learn more about wine than ever before from our expert on-​staff sommeliers. We will take you to our hand-​selected vineyards that produce some of the highest quality wine in Northern California. Our experienced tour guides and staff are trained sommeliers, who have authentic wine knowledge that you can’t find anywhere else.

Leaving San Francisco at 8:30, a shuttle will take you across the Golden Gate Bridge into wine country. Once there, we will set you up on bikes and a guide will lead you from winery to winery. We will stop for a delicious picnic lunch amongst the vineyards. A shuttle will follow the group to carry any purchases or assist any riders who decide they would rather be driven. Biking the whole way is optional. At any point, guests may choose to ride in the shuttle

History

Established in 2009.

Gears and Grapes Getaways was founded out of a love for cycling and a love for wine. The founder started bicycle touring at the age of 16. And since then has led tours across the country, north to south and east to west. She has led tours in Europe as well as through Mexico and Central America. Along with an extensive history in cycling, the founder has also spent time living in both Chile and France and developed a love for all things wine related. Being a California native, she took her passion for wine back home and in January 2009 Gears and Grapes Getaways Inc opened its doors.
