We provided some key places we wanted to include in our trip and the Simply Driven team did a fantastic job filling in the gaps with things that were perfectly aligned with what we were looking for.

Grady was the best!! He took such great care of us and we didn't have to worry about a thing!

Great service. I highly recommend these guys. They helped plan all our wineries and had tons of wine knowledge.

They were super prompt picking us up. They helped load us up and were very good drivers. They even supplies small bottled water (even though we had our own) and put them in every cup holder between each stop. They came prepared with paper plates, cloth napkins (neatly pressed), and a table cloth for our lunches. On the rainy day they escorted people to and from the cars with umbrellas. But most of all they had so much knowledge about the area, the wineries, and the good gossip about wines, winemakes, and vineyard owners. Phil took some great pictures of our group and promptly emailed them to me. Steve kept a close eye on the schedule and would check-in diligently but not aggressively when it came close to leaving.Highest recommendation. All my friends agreed. A wonderful trip made better by simply driven and Steve and Phil. read less

The devastating fires had just hit the area, but at the time, our rental was no where near the danger spots. Our driver, Grady, arrived promptly on Saturday and broke the unfortunate news that the wineries on our itinerary were closing because the fires were changing directions. Grady started making phone calls and managed to find several wineries that were staying open, and so our journey began. We enjoyed some outstanding pinots and a fantastic fresh lunch at a local gem. We had an amazing day anyway, thanks to Grady. Later that evening, Grady even called to check on us and to advise that the fires were getting closer. Sure enough, two hours later we were forced to evacuate. We hope to return next year to finish touring the areas we missed, and we will absolutely use Simply Driven again and requesting Grady! read less

The expanse of vineyards, the olive and lemon trees and to my surprise pomegranite trees provided a wonderdul backdrop to a beautiful countryside! The best part is we didn't have to figure out where to go, how to get there or even time out our day. Leilani did it all! She picked out a variety of vineyards to visit, each offering their own unique setting. Our two favorites were ones we would never have picked ourselves. Tres Sabores was a vineyard we would not have found on our own as it was tucked in and behind other vineyards. The personal touches this organic vineyard shared, the true family feel made it one of my favorites places to visit. The B. Wise tasting room was one we probably would have driven past not giving it a second look which would have been a shame as it was our favorite tasting wines (Help me Rhonda!). Leilani did a great job planning our trip, driving us safely - taking different routes so that we could get a feel for the countryside and sharing her favorite places to eat, drink and be merry. Looking forward to returning and when we do, we will be sure to ask for Lei! read less

We had 1 day of driving ourselves from SF to Wine country, stopping at places along the way, but wanted one day where one of us did not need to be a designated driver. We looked into car service options, but were super thankful that a company like Simply Driven exists! It was perfect for us since we had a Suburban rental already - why pay the extra money for another car that might not have been as stylish or comfortable? Simply Driven was able to accommodate our requests pretty last minute (1 or 2 days before our appointment) and they were wonderful at taking our picks, giving other suggestions, and making the reservations for us; Service was A++ and it was so easy to communicate with them! We spent the day with Donna who was lovely and perfectly on time. During our drive she shared some wine country knowledge with us, and during lunch we all shared some stories - we just had a great time with her all day. Apart from being a driver, tour guide, and photographer, it was also great having someone to help wrangle us in to head to the next place - in all we stopped at 5 places in a day - she ran a tight ship and knew which winery to go to "after hours." I'd super highly recommend Simply Driven to anybody that's going to their service area. read less

Donna was exceptional! Prompt, professional and an overall fun lady. She took care of us four sisters, ages 57+ and designed our day exactly as we had hoped: from easy going West Wines, to Fritz Underground with cave tour and then Cast with a beautiful tasting room. Something for everyone from Zins to Bubbles and then some. We picked up a picnic lunch which we enjoyed at the Fritz Winery which Donna prepared for us.
A memorable day! read less

The booking was handled perfectly and we were given a nice varied itinerary including a a picnic lunch spot in the gardens at Bella, which was a highlight.

Our diver Donna was an absolute delight, totally professional, well informed, drove well but also was simply great company for the day, I would highly recommend her to others.

We loved how different the wines we tried were at the three wineries (Ridge, Bella and Twomey) and the tastings are well-priced in this beautifully scenic part of Sonoma.

All in all a fantastic way to experience Sonoma wine country and great value for money. read less

We left the planning to him. We gave him our preferences and he arranged two days of Napa Valley Wine Tours. We had chosen mostly smaller wineries which we loved. We did put a winery down from a "top 10 list" that was a zoo which happened to be the last winery we visited. Because all of ours had been small we had no idea that some are big tourist destinations. We are very glad we used simply driven to see smaller wineries that would not have been on the tour bus destinations. We didn't need to wait for Ubers and we had someone to take group photos and provide extra knowledge. read less

In both instances Grady has driven us while playing the roles of concierge, driver, tour guide, and historian. He’s legitimately an expert in regard to all things Napa/Sonoma Valley (not just wine): We took his recommendations for dinner and both meals were fantastic.

The next time we return to Napa, we will definitely be calling Simply Driven (for the 3rd time). The price is more than fair, the conversation is phenomenal and we trust them. Honestly, just ask Grady to plan the itinerary for you. The wineries and experiences he’s recommended and/or scheduled have been better than the ones we’ve researched and scheduled on our own. read less

I initially was in contact with Grady, who answered my initial questions quite late on a Friday night. We finally booked our tour the day before we needed to go and Simply Driven was quite accommodating. They took care of everything and were able to get us a reservation for a tasting at Pride Mountain Vineyards. Emily was our driver and she was delightful. She met us right on time at our hotel in Sonoma and came prepared with water for us to drink along the way. Emily knows the area well and was a good driver (which considering she was driving our rental is critical) especially on the winding road up to Pride. She then recommended a great lunch spot (VJB Vineyard & Cellars) and took us to our final destination, St Francis Winery & Vineyards. Although our time with Emily was short, she definitely went the extra mile to make sure we had a great time, making. It certainly costs a bit extra but if you want a low stress wine tour personalized to your tastes, Simply Driven cannot be beat. read less

Grady- for your help and assistance with all my preplanning questions! Donna - for a fun day out and about in the Russian River Valley. All of our stops were so conveniently planned and meticulously catered to our wine wishes! It was a successful wine tasting day!! We couldn't have planned this day ourselves not knowing the wineries as well. It was so nice to be able to go "off itinerary" for our last stop of the day - as we had received a recommendation for the same place in 2 previous stops! And since it was in our vicinity and walk-ins welcomed - that's where we went and it worked out well! Donna was on time, accommodating to personal needs, kept us on schedule, knowledgeable and fun! This was our first time on a "catered" wine experience like this. I highly recommend Simply Driven, no matter how large or small (in our case) your group is. We didn't want to do the "bus tour" concept since our goal was to experience more boutique type wineries that I'm sure larger "tours" don't take you too. What an unbelievable experience it was to walk in and be the ONLY people there. Thank you again for such an amazing experience and hope to use your service again one day! read less

She provided a ton of local knowledge and made us feel like we had rented a limousine with her little extras like opening the door and walking us to the concierge at each of the winery's. She had an incredible intuition to knowing when to be part of our experience and when to let us have our romantic private time. Her smile never stopped. You can tell she really cares about people and has a happy soul. Both Grady and Leilani were also very proactive about communicating when we had questions prior to our trip. They made it all easy and seamless. The whole experience was wonderful. If you have not considered being driven while wine tasting, I would suggest doing it. Its an amazing way to sit back and really enjoy the experience while having someone wonderful take care of you.

Fantastic! Previous to meeting her we'd communicated regarding what type of tour and tasting we wanted. We were looking for smaller, boutique type of vineyards and that's exactly what we got. All 3 stops were small, family businesses where we were the only people tasting. Wine cave tasting, private kitchen tasting and barrel room tasting...so private and so personal. Each of them different but each of them very nice! Emily even picked up a picnic lunch for us to enjoy in one of the vineyards. The day was absolutely perfect!!! I would totally recommend this company. We worried about nothing...they made sure this day was a fabulous experience. We also have a nice supply of all of their wines being delivered soon. Priceless!

We had another great day that day! Grady is the owner of the company and was very knowledgable about the area and took us to some really great wineries. We also used them to take us into Napa one evening for dinner. Simply Driven is one of the only companies that will supply a driver to drive your rental car AND plan an itinerary for your day. Plus they are affordable and so professional. I originally booked one of the days with We Drive and they were so unorganized and unprofessional! I'm so happy I cancelled with them and scheduled our second day with Simply Driven! I know exactly who I will be using for my next visit and will recommend them highly to anyone I know that will be traveling to that area! read less

I cannot say enough about the special attention we had throughout the two days of service. I think Leilani made our trip so much better from her knowledge of the wineries and her humor was perfect for our group. I have told my friends about this wonderful service and you cannot have the same trip without them. read less

Grady was so helpful and always answered my phone calls/e-mails when preparing for our trip and he and Leilani both were very detailed and organized with our itinerary. We really enjoyed the wineries they selected, as they were more private and intimate compared to the commercialized Napa wineries. We absolutely loved Tres Sabores, Amici, Fontanella, and Reid Family especially!

Leilani was a fantastic driver and was so personable and fun. Highly recommend if you are looking for a concierge company! read less

We booked them last minute as we cobbled together our wine country weekend on short notice. No matter. We promptly received an email asking us how we wanted to spend our day, from specific wineries we wanted to visit, types of wine we liked the most, and our level of wine "expertise". We spent the day with Leilani, who was utterly amazing - fun, engaging, and connected to everyone in Napa Valley (she seemed to know everyone, even at the wineries we requested). She made a good day great. The entire experience exceeded our expectations. I'd never do Napa any other way. read less

We were looking for a way to get around Napa safely and without the need to drive ourselves from winery to winery. Grady answered my questions timely and thoroughly via online chat before we booked our reservation to help me feel comfortable with the service. He also was our chauffeur / driver with our rental car and he was friendly and knowledgeable from the start. He clearly knows a ton about wine and the Napa region and we learned a lot as we drove from winery to winery. He customized our tour of four wineries partly based on our likes/dislikes and partly on his own recommendations. It was a perfect way to enjoy a day in Napa. We'll use Simply Driven again next time we visit Napa. read less

We had some places we had on "the list" but we also wanted to see something we didn't know about. Special places...and boy did they know where to go. They gave us suggestions and recommendations and we were beyond ecstatic with the places we went to. From the picnic lunch from the market store in Sonoma, to the boutique vineyard, to the best restaurants, we could not have asked for more. Grady was our driver and he has so much knowledge of where to go and what you may want to see or suggest new places depending on your tastes. I enjoyed our girls trip and they made it more special. Thanks again for all your help and we will use you ALWAYS for our trips! I may plan another one later in the year! Cannot wait. You will not be disappointed! read less

After researching several car services and private tours, I stumbled upon Simply Driven. I gave them a call and was on the phone with the owner, Grady, for about an hour while he listened to me go on and on about what I wanted out of the day. I knew instantly this was our route to the best wine tasting day and it was without a doubt the most bang for the buck. Grady himself picked us up, made our flawless itinerary (he took everything I said into consideration), and played the PERFECT private tour guide we could have ever imagined. Simply Driven provided us with a day we will absolutely never forget. I couldn't possibly recommend them more. read less

Not that you can have a bad day in Napa, but our time there wouldn't even have compared without Grady's guidance! If you do Napa, you must be under Grady's guidance! Cheers! read less

However owner and gentleman planning our trip weren't the most professional at times. The part that got me was being called the day after out trip, a Sunday, while we're still on vacation and being told we owe more money as the driver made a mistake in the billing. When I said we were only short $50 vs $100 the owner just said "you're wrong" and went on. Needless to say I was right and our 2nd invoice was for $50. So we received this on a Sunday, still on vacation. We were in a very remote area so service was spotty and I didn't get to pay it on Sunday. Well Monday morning I receive a past due notice. I mean....really.... $50 off of your own mistake and then an overdue notice. It was just ridiculous, especially when still on vacation. The customer is not always right nor honest in their opinion. Wish I could have exclusively dealt with our driver. read less

Prior to our Napa Valley visit, we communicated several times. I researched small wineries and selected 5 or 6 (wanting to visit 2) and sent them. Grady narrowed down my list to 2 and sent me an itinerary, which included the 2 afternoon appointments I already booked, plus bike for a stop to pick up lunch, as well as lunch time scheduled! He was interesting to talk to, a great driver, and we didn't have to worry about how much wine we drank! The weather was beautiful, and we couldn't have had a more wonderful time. Grady is very knowledgeable about wines and wineries. If I return to Napa or Sonoma, I won't hesitate to call Simply Driven, and would even consider having Grady set our agenda for the day! read less

We had a fantastic day with Jake who is a true gentleman. He arrived 15 minutes prior to our appointment time and was very conscientious about his performance. We visited 4 wineries with a picnic lunch at Honig winery in an elegant and peaceful setting. He always had a cold water for us each time we returned to the car after our tasting sessions. We chose Simply Driven because we wanted to do our own vineyards at our pace . This is an excellent way to tour Napa or Sonoma as you are in control of your visits. They had recommended several wineries, all of which were great choices. The owner, Lelani, called to make sure we were OK with her choices and she is very knowledgeable about the area. I will use Simply Driven again when we return for another visit! read less

Grady met us at our inn a few minutes before 10 with water and snacks at hand, hopped in our car, and we spent the next 5 hours visiting a series of wineries he had helped us select, getting an education in the vineyard business (Grady was a general manager at some of the best), and most of all enjoying a great conversation as we rolled through Sonoma at our own pace. We really loved every minute of our day, cannot wait to go back again and visit more vineyards, and cannot recommend this service highly enough read less

Grady worked with me ahead of time to identify the kind of wines I wanted to sample, the most picturesque spots and avoid the crowds. Mission accomplished. The most perfect day, with service that runs to Grady bringing your previous cargo into the next stop so it's not warming in your car, and bringing all the picnic accroutrements so you can sit in a vineyard and have a picnic. Highly highly recommend. read less

I'm so glad I did! This has to be he best way to go wine tasting! Grady planned an amazing itinerary for us, including a lovely picnic lunch. We visited five unique wineries that we never would have found on our own. Grady's knowledge of the industry and local wineries made for a very fun day with lots of laughs and wonderful wines.

And brought us lunch from Calistoga when we were wine tasting. She took us to the best vineyards in the Napa Valley. Could not do that many vineyards if we did it ourselves nor would it be safe. Safety and peace of mind is totally worth it. Too many drunk driver in the afternoon weekend in Napa Valley who don't know their limits nor when they are safe to drive. I would do it again without hesitation. Be smart and be Driven in Napa. read less
