How should I get to Sonoma County? 

There are two primary ways to get to Sonoma County if you are visiting from outside of northern California:

  • Fly into SFO or OAK and:

    • Rent a car to drive to Sonoma County. Without traffic it takes 90 minutes on the 101; with traffic it can take 2+ hours. You can optionally take CA-1 for the scenic route, but that will take a few hours as you soak in the views.

    • Take the Santa Rosa Airporter and take a Lyft from the Santa Rosa Airport or Park-n-Ride. The schedule has trip details.

  • Fly into STS Airport. There are connecting flights through several large airports such as LAX, SFO, and PDX.

What’s the best way to get around Sonoma County? 

  • We recommend renting a car if you want to explore the area, especially the Russian River, Bodega Bay, etc. 

  • Lyft also operates in Santa Rosa, so that is a good way to get around if you don't want to worry about having a designated driver.
