About Pushpak

A Different Way to Explore Sonoma

Local stories, scenic roads, and electric trikes that make wine country feel a little more personal.

Our Story

A Sonoma Story, Powered by Electric Trikes

Pushpak began with a bigger idea than sightseeing.

Founder Howard Sapper started Pushpak Motors around the belief that short trips could be cleaner, easier, more social, and a lot more fun. What began as an electric trike and micromobility business eventually became something more personal: a guided way to experience Sonoma from the road.

The shift happened naturally. Howard saw that the trikes did more than move people from place to place. They changed how people experienced a place. Suddenly, Sonoma’s backroads, neighborhoods, vineyards, and local stories felt more open, more immediate, and more alive.

Today, Pushpak Wine Country Tours offers guided electric trike experiences through Sonoma Valley and beyond, from the historic Plaza to vineyard-lined routes, resort departures, seasonal rides, private group tours, and local partnerships throughout wine country.

Meet Howard

The Accidental Tour Leader

Howard Sapper did not set out to build a typical tour company.

His path has moved through music, film, festivals, media, community organizing, environmental advocacy, and civic life. Before Pushpak, Howard spent decades in the entertainment world, working with artists, events, creative businesses, and cultural projects.

Pushpak brings those threads together: a little showmanship, a lot of local knowledge, a deep sense of community, and a belief that small electric vehicles can change the way people move through the world.

What Makes Pushpak Different

Guides who live here, and who know the history, the landmarks, and the corners that are not in any guidebook.

Rooted in Community
