Wine Country Adventure: Bike and Kayak Wine Tour

Experience California Wine Country on a fun-filled day in the picturesque rolling hills of the Alexander Valley. First, you'll bike along country roads, stopping for wine tastings and enjoying a delicious picnic lunch. Then, hop in a kayak and paddle down the scenic Russian River. The adventure takes place in Alexander Valley, an award-winning region known for its cabernet sauvignon and merlot.

Meet your guide at Ragle Park in Sonoma County, where you will be outfitted with a bike and gear and taught the rules of the road by your professional guide. Then you'll head out into Wine Country, cycling through 7 miles (11 km) of easy terrain at a leisurely pace. As you pedal, your guide will point out local landmarks and explain the history of the wine region.

You will visit two to three wineries for a tasting of fine wines, and stop for a picnic lunch of fresh salad, bread, cheese, seasonal fruits and dessert. After lunch, you may even have time for a game of bocce ball!

Then, you'll hop in your kayak and paddle down the Russian River. Along the scenic river route, keep an eye out for native wildlife and hold on when you kayak through some small rapids.
