Default North California trip

We're planning a trip to Northern California at the end of September.
We would rent a car. We are from Europe and haven't been a lot in the
US. At this time, the plan looks like this:

Fri arrive SF, visit SF
Sat visit SF
Sun visit SF
Mon Marin Headlands/Point Reyes/Muir woods
Tue Sonoma/Napa
Wed Lake Tahoe
Thu Reno (is this worth it???)
Fri Las Vegas (actually, we really wouldn't like to stay more than
1 night there) + Death Valley
Sat
Sun Yosemite
Mon
Tue Big Sur
Wed Carmel
Thu SF
Fri visit SF, depart SF

What do you guys think about this? Won't this be too much driving?
Other options include: Ave of the Giants (Redwood empire) and
Tiburon/Angel Island. Vegas is not something we really want to do, if
it's too far. I have lived in SF itself for a few months but didn't
visit a lot around it. Thanks for your input.
