Dog-Friendly Wine Tours Sonoma: Adventure Awaits You and Your Four-Legged Co-Pilot
Wine country exploration shouldn't mean leaving your best friend behind. At West Wine Tours, we've revolutionized the traditional wine tour experience by creating dog-friendly wine tours in Sonoma and Napa that welcome both you and your furry companion aboard our iconic restored VW buses. Because let's be honest – wine tastes better when your dog is living their best life right alongside you.
Why Sonoma Wine Country is Perfect for Dogs
Wine Country has always embraced the dog-loving lifestyle that defines California wine country. Unlike other regions that restrict four-legged visitors, Sonoma and Napa’s welcoming wineries understand that dogs are family. The rolling hills, open vineyards, and relaxed atmosphere create the perfect playground for adventurous pups who want to explore alongside their humans.
Our private and “by the seat” wine tours Sonoma experience takes advantage of this pet-positive culture, visiting wineries that not only allow dogs but actively welcome them with water bowls, treats, and plenty of space to roam.

The VW Bus Difference: Instagram-Ready Adventures
Here's what sets our dog-friendly wine tours apart from every other wine tour experience: the undeniable charm of vintage VW buses paired with adorable dogs creates pure magic. These aren't just transportation – they're rolling photo studios that capture the essence of California wine country adventure.
Picture this: your golden retriever's ears flapping in the wind as you cruise through vineyard-lined roads in a perfectly restored 1970s VW bus. The combination is so photogenic that you'll spend half the day taking pictures and the other half living in the moment. We've yet to meet a dog who doesn't look absolutely fantastic posing next to our colorful fleet of vintage buses.
