Museum dedicated to all that is "interurban," i.e., retired trolleys, passenger cars and other remnants of our railway system.
Reviewed By marshmello4
There are many old trains and street cars under-roof outside the museum building -- very historical experience. Inside the museum there are exhibits of transportation and energy. Children can enjoy 2 or 3 tables of wooden train sets and move the cars around. Outside ...Take a train ride on the line that served Sacramento to Oakland up to the 1950's.

Stopped in last Thursday, did the full package of olive oil tasting and wine flight. What a great experience! The food pairings were unique and amazing. Gelato with lemon infused olive oil? To die for! The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, the staff was incredibly accommodating. We had an idea for an 80th birthday gift for my mother-in-law while there, they took my husband back to speak with the owner and they went out of their way to fulfill our request. Loved everything they provide here, will be back!!!

This is a popular park for walkers, bikers, and pet owners. It is my favorite park. As one reviewer says it can be the hike from hell. Both my wife and I have had the Turkey vultures check us out to see if we were going to die. It also has the popular walking track around the old arena on the other side of the park that is in the sun but it is flat. There is also the meandering paths that are in a tree area. In the middle there is the very wooded area where they have a garden that is totally shaded. If you go up the hill, you will run into a trail that you can use your cell phone to scan the signs to learn about the local history. . There is the pond and disc golf. My favorite activity in the park are the hikes from hell. On the Alamo side in the wooded area you can go up the hill to the first communication tower. It is quite a steep hike, then you can walk towards the second tower which is near the far end end of the park. This path is uneven but quite flat for quite awhile until you reach the service road for the second tower. This is sort of paved but in bad repair. This is very popular for walkers. It is when you get near the end that the ascent gets quite steep. The views are quite incredible. When you get to the second tower you can keep going. As well as the main paths there are so many other paths. One was just recently created by bikers. If you go off the paths be aware the terrain is difficult but still doable. When it is raining or just after a rain, the paths are slippery since this is a clay based area. As for wild life. This trip, I saw hawks ( due to the increased rodent population), Turkey vultures, and a few other birds. I also saw rabbits and a mule deer when I was off path. The last trip I spent six and a half hours walking. If you come in through the Alamo side, there is very little parking. On the freeway side, there is a lot of parking but you do have to pay.

Yes it's a winery but on select Fridays Wooden Valley hosts a family evening with music food trucks and wine tasting. Very laid back and enjoyable way to meet your neighbors. Staff is friendly and wine credible.

Just happened upon this place while "adventure driving." Quite a few birds who have been damaged permanently live there and you can get a good look. Excellent education for kids. Small facility, but my young children we're very interested. Other animals are there also for a close look. Donations accepted.

Located on Travis Air Force Base Gateway to the Pacific, Gateway to the World!

This is also called the Jimmy Doolittle Air & Space Museum. You cannot drive onto the base, but if you stop at the visitors' center and get a pass -- which includes a background check -- a shuttle will take you to the Heritage Center. There is a multitude of aircraft, engines, and lots of history to read in this unique museum. It is a great place to visit, especially if you are a history or aviation buff!

What an amazing concept!
Imagine hanging out on an 80' yacht enjoying the sunset while sipping on a beverage and nibbling on a snack and listening to some great music. The experience is transformational, totally chill, and very romantic. This is the best place to bring a date if you truly want to impress them.
The yacht is a beautiful classic built in the 60's and looks fantastic. It is also a hotel (Barkissimo) with 4 staterooms, just in case...
Their wine list is extensive, featuring the best of the region and beyond. They also feature dozens of beers too. Light food, selected to pair with their wines, is available as well.
But what sets this place apart is the location, the view, the uniqueness of being on a yacht, and the impeccable service. Once the sun sets and the temperature drops, the crew is there lighting the fire pits and offering blankets. You won't want to leave!

The service is great, the owner very patient and helpful, and the kayaking in the river is tranquil and fun. We stayed at the Barkissimo yacht hotel and they hooked us up with the kayak rentals. It was super easy to reserve kayaks and take off right from the hotel dock.
