Barbara, your host on the Dolphin, welcomes you aboard for a three-hour cruise on the Napa River and along the eastern side of Mare Island. On this day you will find yourself fully immersed in the wonders of nature. The plan is to cruise upriver for a bit, looking at the scenery and wildlife (bring your binoculars), then head back down river to the southern end of the island. Mare Island has become an important nesting habitat for Osprey, fish-eating raptors, and in June we might even see some hatchlings in their nests. A box lunch will be provided during the cruise for you to enjoy as the beauty of nature passes slowly by.

Pickup Points

Since pickup times vary from trip to trip, please consult the trip-specific timed itinerary that is sent to you when you book. A detailed description of where each stop is located is also included with those documents. The motorcoach will make stops at all the locations, and upon returning to Sacramento, will drop you off in reverse order.

Day Trips Headed Westbound from Sacramento (SF, Napa, etc) and Eastbound on I-80 (Reno):

  • Citrus Heights at Antelope Rd & Lichen Dr
  • Arden Area

Day Trips Headed Eastbound on the Hwy 50 Corridor (Tahoe, Sierra Foothills):

  • Arden Area
  • Sports Leisure Office at 9812 Old Winery Pl (Near Hwy 50 & Bradshaw)

We do not share specific pickup information on our website, as we have found over the years that other travel groups tend to use our pickup points without our or the property owner's permission, which reflects poorly on our company and hurts our ability to offer convenient pickup points to our clients. Accordingly, we ask that you not suggest our pickup points to other groups you travel with, as "the more the merrier" does not often apply to parking lots. Your understanding is appreciated.
