Behind the Bell of the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley with Paul Hendricks

What does it take to drive a trolley full of wine tasters around Sonoma Valley—and keep everyone informed and entertained along the way?

Paul Hendricks of the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley joins The Sonoma Spiel to talk about his 11 years as a trolley driver and guide. His unconventional journey includes living in Germany, working around the Los Angeles music scene, studying improv in Chicago and leading international travelers on multiweek adventures through America’s national parks.

Paul explains how the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley combines local history, winery visits, lunch and plenty of humor. He also shares advice for new wine tasters, discusses the appeal of Sonoma’s family-owned wineries and answers practical visitor questions about shipping wine home, evening dining, nonalcoholic options, children at tastings and tipping a tour guide.
