Our trip was awesome, and we look forward to another adventure! There was no getting lost with the detailed guide and suggestions for food. Fortunately, the weather cooperated for the most part and we were rewarded with what we found out was a very green California, definitely not the norm. While Jon enjoyed the hikes up the mountains, I enjoyed the parts down through Muir Woods the best. Oh, and the wineries we visited we all so unique. It was a great anniversary trip. Now to decide which one next. :) |

We loved this trek and have been raving about it to our friends. The guidebook and prep materials were all outstanding. In addition, the hotels were all excellent and each winery was unique and a lot of fun. We had four winery visits as part of this trek and each hotel had a wine service or happy hour which we thoroughly enjoyed. Also, we linked up with two other hikers for a day that were doing a different trek that overlapped with ours. We would definitely do Wine Country Trekking again and have been recommending it to our friends. |

Just got back from our wonderful trip. The hotels were fabulous--especially in Sausalito and Glen Ellen. I plan to revisit them. The restaurant selections were very good--especially enjoyed Poggio in Sausilito, Glen Ellen Star/Fig Cafe in Glen Ellen. Even though I walk quite a bit, the hikes were a good challenge. I took my mom along and we took about 7 hours on the first two days--we like to stop, look, and rest. It was great walking on paths I wouldn't have even known about--Marin County has a great trail system! Also loved walking through the Muir Woods. All the transfers, check-ins were seamless. I'll be looking into planning another one . . . |

For those who don't read long reviews, here is the short version: On a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the best, Mary & Greg & Wine Country Trekking are a 10! Even before signing up I needed to request an addition -DONE. Then on the 3rd day I asked for another one - DONE. As a mostly city walking 75 year old I had lots of questions right up until my flight left from Vancouver, Canada.Every question/email was answered surprisingly quickly and always with patience and their incredible knowledge. I agree with all the positive comments about the treks, hotels and would also recommend following their suggestions regarding where to eat as all the ones I chose were really great. The San Francisco to Sausalito plus Mt. Tamalpais to the Wine Country was incredible! The maps, markers and directions were perfect. PS. I had a fantastic visit with Bruce Rector at his home winery discovering things about wine making that I had never heard. In addition, Mary & Greg were kind enough to stop by for a visit with me as well. Grand folks, great company with more "customer support" than I've ever experienced. A slam dunk by any measure. (One tip: using "Hiking" on my i Watch the mileage did not match but as soon as I changed it to "Outdoor Walking" they were perfectly synced). I plan to do a future trek with them and highly recommend them to anyone who is considering such an adventure. |

The experience was excellent and we would book with the company again. |
