Temecula is the natural wine day from Orange County. The run goes out SR-91 and I-15 from north county or up I-5 and SR-74 from the south, roughly 60 to 90 minutes each way depending on traffic. Most wineries on Rancho California Road and De Portola Road take minibuses easily, and several take full-size coaches, but the winery with the smallest lot sets the vehicle size for the day.
Groups from Orange County also book overnight trips to the Santa Ynez Valley and Paso Robles. Those are priced as multi-day blocks with the driver's overnight included. Tasting reservations should be made before the vehicle is booked, and every stop goes on the itinerary so the operator can plan the route.
