Must-Visit Wineries and Towns
For those planning a Napa Valley wine tour, reservations are a must, often two months in advance for the top spots.
Amici Cellars: A peaceful retreat in the mountains, Amici offers an intimate and enjoyable atmosphere where you can savor the wines at leisure.
Far Niente: The vineyard’s grounds are breathtaking, although the tasting experience felt a bit commercial. They’re also proactive about wine sales.
Exploring Napa Valley’s Charming Towns
Each town in Napa Valley offers unique character and charm. Here are some must-visit spots:
Yountville: My personal favorite! This picturesque town feels like a scene from a movie, with high-end boutiques, gourmet restaurants, vine-covered buildings, and string-lit paths. Yountville is ideal for a romantic evening stroll.
St. Helena: A quaint town with eclectic shops and restaurants. Don’t miss Sunshine Foods Market, a local favorite.
Calistoga: Known for its natural hot springs, mud baths, and wineries, Calistoga has an old Western feel and offers a unique blend of history and luxury.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
For a bird’s-eye view of Napa’s stunning vineyards, a hot air balloon ride is a must. We joined Napa Valley Aloft Balloons, though in hindsight, a private experience would have been preferable for a more intimate and streamlined experience. Napa Valley Aloft’s private option ($2,200) includes direct resort pickup for added convenience.
