Sonoma Limousine Service
Limousine and chauffeur service for Sonoma County. Wine tours, weddings, hotel transfers, executive trips. From $395 SFO.
Quieter than Napa, larger geography.
Sonoma County spans a different scale than Napa. Napa is 30 miles end to end. Sonoma is closer to 60 miles north to south, from the Sonoma plaza in the south to Cloverdale in the north. The wine country sub-regions are distinct: Sonoma Valley proper around Sonoma plaza, Glen Ellen and Kenwood north of there, Russian River Valley west of Healdsburg, Dry Creek and Alexander Valleys further north, and the Sonoma Coast for the Pacific-influenced wineries.
Sonoma rewards a chauffeur who knows the geography. The 12 from Sonoma plaza to Glen Ellen is 11 miles. From there to Kenwood another 7. Healdsburg is a separate trip. Russian River from Sonoma is 40 minutes minimum. We route the day to keep the drives short. The white Chrysler 300 stretch is our most-booked Sonoma wedding vehicle; the Lincoln Navigator L runs the touring days.

Russian River and coastal trips
From central Sonoma west to Guerneville and the Russian River, or further west to the Sonoma Coast. Add 30-45 minutes drive over plaza-area trips. Full-day chauffeur recommended.
Sonoma Plaza pickup logistics
The Plaza is one-way around the perimeter. We pick up most often at the corner of First Street East and East Spain, next to City Hall. Walk from the plaza side is 30 seconds. Easier than the back alleys that some chauffeur companies try.

The Russian River roads (Westside Road, Eastside Road) are scenic but narrow; we take them slowly with luggage. Healdsburg plaza is hard to find weekend parking; we drop and return as needed.
