SJC to Sonoma — The Silicon Valley Sonoma-Weekend Corridor

Flying into SJC for a Cisco / Adobe / Nvidia / Apple Park business trip combined with a weekend in Sonoma wine country? SJC is the Silicon Valley executive arrival airport for combined business + wine-country trips. The drive to Sonoma is about 30-45 minutes longer than from SFO or OAK because SJC is further south — you must drive north through the entire Bay Area before reaching the wine country. We've been arranging premium SJC-to-Sonoma transport for Silicon Valley executive accounts since the 1990s.
