DESTINATIONS VISITED:California
PLACES VISITED:Napa Valley
SUGGESTED DURATION:2 Days
Enjoying Napa Valley, the options of wineries to hotels to Michelin star restaurants feel nearly endless. But rest assured, are few local gems are tried and true! Stay at one of the top 4.5 star hotels in downtown Napa to be within walking distance of a Michelin Star restaurant, local art galleries and a few rooftop terraces showing the quintessential Napa Valley. Hire a trust chauffeur tour guide in one - a local with over 20+ years of experience, taking you to hidden gem wineries while telling you about the Valley while you enjoy the sprawling landscape. Stop at a few wineries with Cave Tastings or enjoy learning about select wines in depth from the comforts of an elegant chateau library. Enjoy lunch in Calistoga before moving on to a winery with its own Pinot Noir specialist. End the evening with a stroll along the river front in downtown Napa. Reach out with questions – I’d love to curate your next (or first!) visit to Napa Valley!

The local chauffeur knows the Valley and provides interesting facts and tid bits while you drive. Arrive at your first winery, enjoy your pre-arranged tasting, tour, estate walk-about while taking in the views. Leave at your leisure to move on to a quick bite in a near by town, trying some very fresh salads and sandwiches, with ingredients straight from the farm. Then head to your second winery, enjoy cave tastings, tours or sipping wine in the estate's library before heading to your third winery (can you keep up??).
