Levi's Stadium and Mountain Winery: getting around Silicon Valley
 
We're going to be in San Jose at the end of the month and want to go to a concert at Mountain Winery. My son also wants to go to the tech museum and Levi's Stadium. What's the best way to get around? Is it possible to do this without renting a car?

I don't think it's even possible to get to Mountain Winery without a car, although maybe Uber? The tech museum is in downtown San Jose, so that's easy. Levi's Stadium is on the light-rail line so that can be done via public transit too.

Even uber might be a problem -- w/ how the parking and access road are I'm not 100% sure a driver could drop you off or pick you up. They don't allow walk ins.

Yes, Levis Stadium and the Tech Museum are easy without a car since they are on the light rail system. I am not sure about Mountain Winery though. I checked their web site and it doesn't say anything about accommodations for any other mode of transportation other than private vehicle. I'd call and ask about Uber drop offs and pickups.

I've stayed in the area and have gotten around easily w/o a car. Frankly, when you're driving in an unfamiliar area, you spend all your time navigating and looking for parking and you miss a lot. You can get around easily w/ cabs/uber and CalTrain. I've also stayed at the Inn at Saratoga and they have a shuttle that goes to Mountain Winery. I think it stops at at least one more area hotel.

" I've also stayed at the Inn at Saratoga and they have a shuttle that goes to Mountain Winery. I think it stops at at least one more area hotel."

That is really good to know.
