When you are ready for a break from California’s beautiful beach resorts you can travel inland to the Temecula Valley to tour some beautiful vineyards and sample your favorite California wines. You can download an app and do your own tour of more than 30 wineries or leave the driving to someone else and sign up for a Grapeline Wine Tour, a few of which include vineyard picnics.

If you’re not into wine, there are plenty of other activities on offer in the valley, including plenty of cultural attractions, hot-air balloon adventures, hiking and wildlife watching in the Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve, or bicycle/ horseback tours through the vineyards.
