Napa and Sonoma,one car, nine hours.
Three tasting rooms, lunch in the valley, and a driver who is not tasting. Pickup at your SFO terminal or your city hotel at 8:30, back before dinner — one flat price for the car, however many of you ride in it.
A plan, not a schedule.
Every stop below is a suggestion your driver will happily rearrange from the front seat. Times are what the day looks like when nothing changes — and something usually does.
From $690 per car per day.
Extra hours $50, agreed before we run them. Two cars for a bigger group — send an inquiry. Or text (650) 456-9999 and say "Napa & Sonoma wine day".
One car, one price.
Your driver stays with you for the whole block — no re-booking between stops, no waiting for a car in a parking lot, no meter running while you decide.

Tasting means not driving.
Anniversaries, birthdays, harvest-season weekends, and the four coworkers who came for a conference and stayed a day. The car exists for the same reason the tasting room does: nobody in the party wants to be the designated driver.
Tasting fees run $40–$95 a person and are paid at the winery. Tell us the style — big reds, sparkling, small family estates — and we book appointments to match before you land.
Two of you, one region?
A six-hour Sonoma-only day costs less and is honestly enough for two tastings and lunch — ask for it by name. And if all you need is the ride up and the ride back, a one-way transfer each way is the cheaper answer; book that instead and keep the difference. Either one is a quote request rather than a booking.
Do you book the wineries?
Yes. Send us the party size, the date and the kind of wine you like; we make the appointments and send the confirmations. Tasting fees are paid at each room — they are the winery's price, not ours.
Can we change the plan mid-day?
That is the point of a private car. Drop a stop, add a stop, sit longer at the one you like. The driver re-routes; the price does not move unless the day runs past nine hours.
Can we ship or carry wine home?
Cases ride in the back. The SUV takes several, the minivan takes a serious haul. Buying more than your baggage allowance, most wineries ship for less than the airline charges.
Is a designated-driver day cheaper?
If you already have a hotel in the valley and just want a driver for the afternoon, ask about hourly service instead — a car and driver held by the block. The day rate is for door-to-door days that start in the city. The block prices are on the hourly car service page.
Ready when you are.
Tell us the date and the party size and we come back with a plan and a fixed price for the car — usually within the hour, any day of the week.
Ten languages by phone, text or WeChat (yakaainc) — and ask for a driver who speaks yours when you book.
