LAS VEGAS (June 2025) – Bindlestiff Tours–the award-winning adventure travel company known for curating unforgettable experiences across the American West, Canadian West and Alaska, announces its newest offering: California Coastlines and Vineyards, Waves and Wine. This five-day small-group tour departs from San Francisco and invites guests to experience the magic of California's northern coastlines, redwood forests and world-class wine regions. Designed for travelers 21 and older, the tour is available on select dates year-round and can be booked as a small group, women's only or private experience.

The itinerary begins in San Francisco with a journey across the Golden Gate Bridge before winding through the charming streets of Sausalito. Guests enjoy an artisan lunch and tasting at Heidrun Meadery before settling into their waterfront accommodations and embarking on a starlit bioluminescent kayak tour at Tomales Bay—an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon that lights up the water with every paddle stroke. The following day blends scenic coastal hiking with fresh oyster tastings at Hog Island Oyster Co. before heading north to relax in Bodega Bay, where windswept beaches and a glass of wine greet guests upon arrival.

From there, the tour transitions into the heart of wine country with a guided bike ride through the Russian River Valley. Guests pedal along peaceful vineyard roads with curated stops at boutique wineries and enjoy a gourmet picnic lunch among the vines. The evening is spent in the riverside town of Guerneville, with cozy cottages nestled beneath the redwoods offering the perfect retreat. The journey continues with a morning walk among the towering trees of Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve followed by an indulgent VIP chef's table lunch at Capo Creek Winery, complete with wine pairings and sweeping vineyard views.

On the final day, guests unwind at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn's geothermal mineral pools and explore Sonoma's historic shops and tasting rooms before returning to San Francisco. From artisan tastings and ancient forests to luxurious moments of rest, the experience captures the full spirit of California—relaxed, flavorful and naturally spectacular.

“We designed this itinerary to give guests a front-row seat to some of California's most captivating experiences,” said Rachel Urban, owner, Bindlestiff Tours. “From glowing waters and ancient redwoods to private tastings and luxurious spa soaks, every day is full of moments you can't replicate.”
