After a relaxing morning in Napa, we’ll head back to San Francisco, taking in the scenic drive through California’s beautiful landscapes. Along the way, there’s an optional stop at Muir Woods to walk among towering redwoods nature’s perfect farewell hug. Back in the city, enjoy some last-minute shopping in Union Square or explore one of San Francisco’s iconic museums, before departing this unforgettable California adventure.

Aim to be at SFO at least 2 hours before your departure for domestic flights (3 hours for international) to ensure a smooth check-in and boarding process. Double-check your rental car return location and allow extra time for drop-off, especially if it’s a busy terminal.
