Among the same lines. Can anyone recommend a good napa valley tour company? I've found this website http://www.winecountrytourshuttle.com/ My wife wants to do a limo instead of a shuttle bus, but im working on that, lol. Car is not an option. We'll be getting good and drunk. We are not renting a vehicle for the trip.
For the Giants game. Never even really considered checking out a game. Found out they are at home when we are out there. Seems highly reviewed on these boards. Is it worth going to a game even if its in the bleachers section? The trip is already fairly expensive so I didn't want to spend a whole bunch on tickets. Is going to a game one of those things where the atmosphere and stuff is what makes it worth it? And if so, would you recommend a day or night game as it looks like we could have a choice. |
Just get your tickets through Alcatraz Cruises. They're the only ones going to the island anyway, so may as well buy directly from them. We got ours with the CityPass.
Baseball game was definitely worth it. We just bought $25 tickets and sat in section 307. Loved it. Great views there's a concourse with all the concessions and everything on that level too.
We did
http://www.terrifictours.com/ for the wine tour. Was just 4 people, guide was excellent, tour wasn't preplanned, he just asked us what we liked and then took us to different wineries based on our answers. Took the ferry option back to SF. Was a great way to end the tour. Plus there's a bar on the ferry so could hammer back some more drinks.
