About us
Unique off the beaten path wine & nature adventures. Wineries, photography, Zip lining, Wine biking, kayaking, Fun Foodie tours, Art & Wine tours, awesome Hawaii adventure trips, weekend trips & more.
Like caves; I know where to find them. Like waterfalls; I know where they are hiding.
I have other groups in the bay area, but most of my adventures are closer to you. Most adventure outings last all day.
Most have an optional super fun & dinner social get together after the main event.
Most outings include: car pooling & shuttles, water, Juice, Tea, latte's, trail bars, Energy & protein drinks, gourmet fruit & Nut packs, hiking poles, gloves, jackets(if needed), parking lot fees, & your personal wine varietal(s). Oh yes & a super fun day with great new possible friends. My outings are a bit unusual & always brings members back for more.
get out with us soon & have the time of your life. NOTE: Most everything is included ; just bring a lunch. Kids & dogs are welcome on some outings.
fees/costs are usually only $ 25 ; rental equipment is xtra.
