Description

Enjoy a unique trip for two aboard the Napa Valley Wine Train. This gift certificate is for travel for two aboard the train. Meals not included.


The tracks upon which the Napa Valley Wine Train runs were originally built in the 1860's to bring guests to the hot spring resort town of Calistoga. While the track to Calistoga no longer exists, much of the rest of the route of the Napa Valley Wine Train is unchanged. Due to the immense influence that rail transport had over the development of the communities and wineries of the Napa Valley, there is no shortage of sights to see during the three hour journey to St. Helena. Five towns, Napa, Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford and St. Helena, and numerous wineries can be seen through the large picture windows on board the Wine Train.


The Napa Valley Wine Train begins its journey at the McKinstry Street Station in Napa. The train then travels north to St. Helena, where the locomotive disconnects from the north facing side of the train and reconnects to the south facing side of the train in preparation for the return journey.


Depending on the day of the week, the Napa Valley Wine Train makes two stops.Guests may purchase either the Domaine Chandon Tour on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays or the Grgich Hills Tour on weekdays.
