Discover California Wine Country: With nearly 2700 wineries in five major wine growing regions stretching the length of the state, visitors have an extraordinary number of choices when planning their wine country adventures. Even for an experienced wine lover, the most challenging aspect of touring California's wine regions can be deciding which wonderful locale to visit. Each different region—and sub-region—has its own natural beauty, personality and attractions. Once in wine country, take in all that it has to offer: friendly folks, scenic roads, bicycling, hiking, hot air ballooning, art galleries, museums, boutiques and great food—wine's best friend. From casual bistros to four-star restaurants headed by world-class chefs, California Wine Country is food country, too.

Travel Tips

Long Term Airport Parkin Deals for Week or more: Airport hotels will oftentimes offer one, two or even 3 weeks free parking with a single night stay on departure. Call the airport hotel reception desk direct and ask for the best park & fly deal for your circumstances. You must deal direct with the airport hotel - NOT the 800 toll free reservation center. I was recently quoted $235 for 16 days in non-covered airport parking lot. I called direct to airport hotels offering parking deals and ended up with nice room for rest before flight, free airport shuttle and 16 days free parking for $139!!!

How to find the best travel deals??

  • Hotel and air packages to popular destinations may offer the best opportunity for saving money on your vacation to popular destinations.
  • Always compare web site data base prices with a travel agency price - no one has a monopoly on the best prices! Plan your vacation as far in advance as possible and compare midweek and weekend departure prices.
  • Price morning departures and then late departures to get a feel for off-peak pricing. Price a vacation with a weekend stay-over.
  • If your schedule is flexible, try to travel during non-peak times or look for last minute deals. When you book, you can also purchase travel protection for sickness cancellation, serious vacation problems and lowest advertised price guarantees.
