Description:

Pedal between Calistoga vineyards by bike, sipping and swirling Napa Valley wines as you meet vintners at boutique wineries near Santa Rosa. Then, head to Safari West for an outdoor barbecue lunch followed by an exciting open-air safari for close-up looks at exotic and endangered African animals.

Meet your guide and hop in a comfortable van for a quick ride into the charming valleys and hillside vineyards of Calistoga. Cruise between family-owned and boutique wineries that might include Chateau Montelena, Cuvaison, Bennet Lane, Ecy, Frank Family, and Clos Pegase, stopping at each tasting room to swirl, sniff, and sip full-bodied reds and crisp white wines.

Swap your bike for a seat in the van and make your way back to Safari West, where a delicious barbecue lunch awaits. Eat your fill of pulled pork, mac 'n' cheese, and strawberry shortcake before your next adventure—an open-air jeep ride through the African savanna. Learn all about exotic and endangered animals as you track down creatures like buffalo, springbok, zebras, oryx, and wildebeest. You also have the opportunity to roam the premises to see other fascinating creatures, including cheetahs, lemurs, and giant porcupines, before your wine country safari concludes.
