Our adventure was wonderful! Josh and Lucas were fantastic and funny guides. We were entertained the entire time, and it was beautiful zipping through the redwoods, as expected. I would absolutely recommend this excursion if you are looking for something fun to do. Grab a yummy bite to eat in town afterwards to sum up a really memorable day.

Such a wonderful experience! The guides were so attentive and funny, which really helped keep any nerves at ease. The views were beautiful, and everything felt well-paced from start to finish. The whole experience lasted about 2.5 hours and included 7 zip lines, which was such a fun adventure. The location can be a bit tricky to find, so I'd recommend giving yourself extra time and arriving at least 30 minutes before your scheduled tour, as they suggest.

OMG!! This was such an amazing experience. We came here for my bachelorette and had the most magical time. I can't 100% remember our tour guide names but I believe it was Aiden and Yivek (and I probably spelt those wrong). They were so funny and so knowledgeable. I loved learning about the trees and different birds while we were up on the line. The views were absolutely gorgeous and I was so grateful we got fantastic weather.

We had an absolute blast zip lining in Sonoma! We did the Forest Flights Tour and our two tour guides always made us feel safe. There are 7 different zip lines which took about 2.5 hours. Overall, great experience.

Welcome to Sonoma Zipline Adventure.

Life is about having a daring adventure or nothing at all. Let's begin this zipline adventure. Sonoma Zipline Adventure is an outdoor non-profit organization that provide activity unlike you've ever experienced. It's nestled deep in the Redwood forest in Occidental, CA. They have two unique courses (Forest Flight Tour and Tree Top Tour) containing zip lines, sky bridges, spiral tree staircase and a rappel. We did the Tree Tops which is their highest, fastest and longest course. You will reach speeds of up to 40 mph with a total of 7 zips, bridges and a rappel. As an outdoorsy lad & adventure thrill seeker, SZA was exactly I need. Living life on the edge. Our young safety guides, Shannon and Rebecca, were phenomenal, knowledgeable and professional. It took a little over to 1 1/2 hours to complete the course. Price was worth it. Plenty of parking. Cell reception is nonexistent but they have a free wifi at base camp only. The best part was the majestic Redwood tree top view and I loved it! I felt their natural power; and those trees, they sway and talk as the wind blows. Overall, I had a bloody fantastic time. I highly recommend you visit.

rappel down after high tree tops zip line!
Dani B.

amazing experience!! did the tree tops course and had keely and rylee as our guides. they were so sweet anne gave very clear instructions on how everything works as well as fun tips to make ziplining more fun or exciting. they also had lots of jokes. really enjoyed the fun atmosphere our guides helped create because it made it easier for everyone in the group to chat. it helped that there was only 4 of us going ziplining. i enjoyed all the ziplines and the rappel down was so fun. i would definitely recommend this experience to anyone! paid for pictures and the gopro helmet and it was so worth it to have memories of this!

Dinner!! Filet mignon

We stayed in the treehouses and had two Zipline adventures. The staff was amazing. From start to finish every one of our were met. The zipline guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. I brought my 10-year-old granddaughter for her birthday and they treated her careful consideration of her age and her inexperience. They made her feel comfortable and fun for her. I can't say enough about the Treehouse~I was like a 4 star hotel . Absolutely everything you needed to be comfortable and safe. They were beautiful and safe in a pristine situated in a redwood grove . The meals were over the top, deliciously prepared with fresh and quality ingredients. We celebrated my granddaughter's 10th birthday and had the best time from start to finish. I highly recommend a trip to Sonoma Canopy ~ a beautiful adventure I won't forget!

Highly recommend this trip but make sure to book the treehouse!! You get more bang for your buck. Staff was super friendly, helpful and amazing. From the time we checked in, Bryan and Rebecca made us feel welcome. The tour and zip line guides were awesome, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. The zip lines themselves were amazing. It was a great day and the views were majestic. Treehouse: it was clean, well lit and good amenities. They had a charcuterie board when we got to the treehouse and both dinner and breakfast were really good. They had snacks and bottled water. Showers (which was a little bit of a hike) were clean, had hot water and thick fluffy towels. Gave it 4 stars because it was pricey for a night thing.

Looks like it can be max 5 per treehouse, how many can fit comfortably & sleep?

5 would be difficult imo. 4 per 1 queen & a 2 level bunk bed

Are we able to book a private groups (5 ppl)? Or do we have to be with another group?

A group of 8 would only be private! If you have a group of 5, they will add 2-3 more people to the group. My wife and I went and 6 other people were added still was one of the best trips we ever did, and the other 6 people were so nice, the turn out… 

Which is the best treehouse? I know insides are alike. Which has best view and least foot traffic?

All treehouses include excellent canopy views, but Ocean stands out for atmosphere and serenity

For TREE TOP COURSE, if we go in end of December, which time would be the best (9:45am, 10:15am, 10:45am, 12:15pm, 12:45pm, 1:45pm)? Thanks!

After lunch may be better or it will be cold I would think!! It is awesome enjoy

Is there a waitlist in case of cancellations? there's only 1 person spots left and i need 2 spots

What is the weight limit?

I think I remember the sign saying it's like 70 lbs to 250 lbs

How long is the tree top?

It's about an hour and a half, but you'll want to allow at least two hours total because they take you by truck to the course, and there's a short instructional as well

Is the minimum age still 10?

Yes..it is still 10, and our 10 year old girl was so brave and had an awesome time!

How scary is the tree tops tour?

Compared to others that I've been on, this was less scary because they make sure you are completely attached at all times. Plus, there are cables and rings to hold onto on each platform--even though you are safely attached.

Is there any weight requirement?

Yes, and they weigh you before you go on the tour.

What to wear?

Very comfortable clothes but maybe in layers so you can remove it if you feel hot. But definitely need closed-end shoes.

How much per person?

It depends on the tour you choose and whether it's a weekday vs. weekend, so it ranges from $99 - $139. For details, go to: https://sonomacanopytours.com/view-tours/

How long does the tour last and can two people do it?

Around 2 - 2.5 hours total. Yes, 2 can definitely do it; they put together groups of 5 - 7. Have fun!

Is it kids friendly. 5 and 7 y/o?

They have to weigh at least 70 lbs!! They have a scale at the check in counter which everyone has to step on!! Thank goodness only the check in person can see it.

Does it need to be a group or it could just be 2 person and join together with the other group. I am thinking to go there with my wife and I'm wondering if I could book just for 2 persons?

Yes. My wife and I did exactly that. We joined up with another couple and a woman. It was fun getting to know the other people and see them experience the tour like us. The first time I went, same thing also. Five of us joined with a couple.

This was such an incredible and memorable experience! We saw 17 wild cats on our tour, which included cheetahs, clouded leopard, black leopard, sand cat, bobcat, and so much more! I loved that they had a good mix of large and small wild cats. The tours are by reservation only and you can reach out to schedule a tour. They keep group sizes to no more than 8 people as to not overwhelm the wild cats. The tour was extremely informative and you will learn a lot about these incredible animals. Their facility is super clean and they love and care deeply about these wild cats. The tours are meant to educate the public about the decreasing population of wild cats around the world and provide funding for worldwide wild cat conservation projects. It was so incredible to see these amazing animals up close. There are light refreshments halfway through the tour and merchandise you can purchase at the end of the tour. Highly recommend reaching out to book a tour with them or go to one of their open house events!

They are prepared w/ a Luxury black shuttle van. Paul (our driver) was so informative and so knowledgeable about the Sonoma and Napa History. I appreciate how they already had an itinerary planned out for the day. We visited 4 wineries which one had a wonderful farm to table lunch waiting for us (which this was included in ticket price) Each winery visited made us feel at home/great stories/great people and great wine waiting for us upon arrival! Wine tasting fees are addl around $35-40 per person. Our last winery visited Paul helped us to get TSA approved shipping boxes which wine got home safely! Wish we could've stayed longer at Buena Vista and Sangiacomo. Would highly recommend wine trolley/bus tour and felt ticket price was reasonable for having great service/knowledgeable driver/lunch for an all day tour.

What a fun experience! Highly recommend this fun trolley tour!…read more We had an intimate group of 8 people. Two honeymooners and two mom daughter duos.

We stoped at four places. One beautiful vineyar with spectacular views, a food terrace and wine tasting area, a winery and makery, and another wine tasting bar. Would definitely do this again and highly recommend!

Can't believe that there haven't been reviews posted for the small hamlet of Occidental, CA! When…read moreI was in high school (a number of decades ago!), one of my pals mentioned going to Occidental for amazing Italian food. My reaction was probably, "Huh?!" Back then, there weren't that many options for ethnic restaurants of any kind in Walnut Creek / Concord / Pleasant Hill. Chinese? Italian? Indian? Mexican? Hmm - you might have to be prepared to do some driving. As a result, Occidental had at that time a reputation for authentic Italian cuisine, provided by two rival ristorantes in town. It was quite a drive to get there, but you made a day of it and had an adventure. The little town didn't have much else going on business-wise, that I recall. It sat in a petite valley with a striking rural appearance. In the present day, the town has grown a bit in the intervening years, with more options for dining, and a bit of shopping thrown in. The valley setting sports higher trees and a feeling of being well settled over time. We recently visited while out on an apple picking venture with my brother and sister-in-law. They were cruising on a motorcycle on a glorious fall afternoon. Dear Hubby and I were enjoying the autumn sights in our newer four wheeled vehicle with the sunroof open. We didn't have a lot of time to poke into the shops, as the sandwich spot my bro had in mind was going to close soon. We had a yummy lunch, and got to soak up some of the small town atmosphere and hints of fall color, before time to get back on the road. Can't wait to go back and spend some more time exploring the village.

It is wise to step outside your environment and, in the case of this current venture, go visit an Alpaca farm. The Menagerie Hill ranch has beautiful animals. The host was awesome and knowledgeable. We increased our knowledge of the animals and of the farm but also got to feed them. We also had the opportunities to get close and personal with them for pictures. They were all friendly and fluffy. I recommend this unique experience for all because if you do not just break your usual pattern to stop and smell the roses or to pet and feed an Alpaca, life will pass by before you know it. Put your life on pause just for a few hours and go see the Alpacas. They would like to share peace with you. You can find them at the Menagerie Hill Ranch

We learned a lot about the alpaca life cycle, fed the boys, and my daughter got to hold and carry a cria. We bought two cute alpaca shaped soaps. I didn't experience any of the negativity others have complained about. It is a working ranch so it's not a petting zoo or a tourist attraction. Go with the flow and you'll have a great experience.

He gave us a quick tutorial on the e-bikes, making sure we were all up to speed and comfortable before we hit the road. Throughout the entire ride, James was constantly checking in to make sure we were doing okay, enjoying ourselves, and taking in the experience. The e-bikes were a blast to ride, but honestly, a huge part of what made the afternoon so enjoyable was the time we spent talking and getting to know James. James has an incredible wealth of knowledge about the Napa wine industry, and he was able to share so much interesting information along the way. But what really stood out was that his knowledge went far beyond wine. He was genuinely interesting to talk to, incredibly personable, and clearly someone who has a lot of experience and perspective on life. It felt less like we were simply on a guided bike tour and more like we were spending an afternoon with a great person who happened to know Napa incredibly well.

We didn't have a lot of time due to date change but the couple of hours spent riding was enough to make us want to return!

I flakily started to reserve kayaks from here in advance of arrival but went IRL instead and am so glad I did as the crew we met are all so helpful and friendly. As bearish types we felt so welcomed and not at all shamed for asking about larger sized flotation devices, or for being queer. Only realised after that they were probably tired from all the early birds returning equipment, so I'm even more impressed with how great their service was. Anyway, we rented 2 kayaks at very reasonable prices for half a day compared to locally, and then were shown how to put them on our little car. It felt totally secure which gave us confidence they'd be fine on the return too. And off we went. The folks at Blue Waters recommended a beautiful area near Marconi on the east shore which was so perfect, thank you for that. We got to see the oyster farming there and plenty of incredible wildlife, like otters and jellyfish (see photo). Mostly it was just a great spot to paddle about in Tomales Bay getting some excellent peace and quiet. Checking the kayaks back in was super easy, although I wish I'd seen the 3 women who helped us initially to say thank you in person. They are who will keep me coming back to Blue Waters Kayaking in future. Such an excellent anniversary!
