Napa Valley Wine Train: 3 Reasons To Ride

Perhaps the only thing better than a Napa Valley vacation would be not having to drive while visiting the area’s various wineries. Enter the Napa Valley Wine Train. This little tank engine is so much more than just a transportation option, but rather is an entire experience unto itself.

Hop onboard the vintage train car and embark on a luxurious 36-mile round-trip journey that makes stops at an array of wineries ranging from world famous to hidden gems—all with the lush Napa landscape providing your backdrop. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

A Moveable Feast

Riders are also served a delicious multi-course gourmet meal consisting of fine California cuisine that’s entirely locally sourced, with farmers sometimes even bringing their fresh produce straight to the back door of the train as this rolling restaurant winds its way through wine country.

Dinner And A Show

You will also have options for onboard entertainment. Whether you have a penchant for afternoon tea, or a murder mystery is more your speed, or you prefer for sommeliers to educate you on pairings, there is a train tour for every taste on board.
