    We're there if you need us.

Spend a spirited day in the northern corner of the valley. We will head to lunch at the Sierra Taproom in Chico, then continue on to witness the amazing Sacred Stones at the New Clairvaux Abbey in Vina. Lovingly recreated with 13th Century stone fragments from the Spanish Cistercian Monastery of Santa Maria de Ovila, you'll be surprised to learn Leland Stanford and William Randolph Hurst also played a role in this amazing project. Take a guided tour of the abbey followed by a visit to the winery for a tour and tasting. You will have time to see the stunning vistas, enjoy the koi pond, and visit the gift shop where you may find the perfect treasure. On the way home we will make a pit stop at Granzella's Gourmet and Gifts in Williams.

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.

  • 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.
