When life burdens you with stress or sadness, Malibu Wine Safaris, on winding Mulholland in Malibu Canyon, has some healthy medicine to soothe your soul. A visit with lovable and friendly wild animals, including a giraffe, zebras, water buffalo, yaks, llamas and alpacas, plus wine tasting and breathtaking views is the emotional equivalent of a full-body massage. Ninety-minute tours include six wine tastings and an opportunity to meet, pet and feed the happy animals — along with the chance to see a cave with preserved Chumash pictographs. Family tours are available without the wine. The open-top vehicle tour of gorgeous Saddlerock Ranch, spread over 1,000 acres, with 800 acres of grape vines, is truly a romantic California adventure, full of heart-expanding natural beauty. You can feel the love here.
