What People Say

“I knew Napa Valley has great wineries, but I had no idea it has some of the most scenic and challenging cycling routes in the US.”

— Peter Holbrook, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

★★★★★

We had a spectacular day touring the Alexander Valley with Vine Trail Adventures. Gerardo mapped out an ideal ride that combined a thigh-burning climb and stunning valley views with fun rollers along the vineyards. Lunch at Diavola was delicious and perfectly timed after our big climb. Can’t wait for our next ride with Vine Trail!

Gerardo took me on an amazing, and challenging, mountain bike ride above the Calistoga valley and then back to town to a cool local spot for drinks. Biking is always best when you’re being guided by someone who knows what to do and where to go. Gerardo is a very interesting and charming fellow. Highly recommended for your next adventure!

★★★★★

Gerardo took us on a great morning tour from Calistoga to Healdsburg ending with fun lunch. The route was moderately challenging but it still gave a great workout. It was also nice not to be on well travelled roads by using the Vine Trail
