You are cordially invited to join us for
The Wine Train Weekend!
Experience the magic of San Francisco and the Napa Valley from cable cars to wine train cars.
​
Travel through the lush Napa Valley countryside and be transported back in time ...back to the romance and luxury of the golden age of train travel of the early 1900s ...back to a time when a journey was meant to be savored from start to finish. Enjoy the Gourmet Express experience ...dining and lounge service with courses of your gourmet meal served in each car.
​
Napa Valley produces some of the most amazing wines in the world from some of the most amazing wineries. Enjoy the beautiful landscapes, architecture, vineyards ...and oh yeah, wine!
You'll leave your heart in San Francisco among the "Painted Ladies", spectacular views from its hilly streets, (don't forget the extremely crooked Lombard St.) and fog tumbling over the Golden Gate Bridge.
​
Since the gold rush of 1848, Fisherman’s Wharf waterfront has been the point of dreams and adventure. Gaze out over the bay to Alcatraz and the amazing landscape of the Bay area. Stroll along the Marina and discover chic boutiques, waterfront dining and carnival-like attractions.
​
Hop aboard a famed cable car and get ready for a roller coaster ride! Get ready ...San Fran is a whole vibe.

Our private driver and guide delivers us to the Napa Valley Wine Train Depot for check in.
​
All aboard! It’s what you have been waiting for ...time to board the Napa Valley Wine Train!
​
Our amazing experience aboard the wine train begins! Heading North, first seating guests begin their journey in the dining car, enjoying their fresh Sonoma greens or soup du jour and choice of entrée—roasted tenderloin of beef, lemon thyme roasted chicken, or gemelli pasta among them—followed by dessert with complimentary coffee or tea in one of the lounge cars on the return trip.
​
Second seating guests sample appetizers and beverages in one of the lounge cars en route to St. Helena, and choice of soup or salad, entrée, and dessert on the way back to the station. Fresh California gourmet meals are crafted by Executive Chef Donald Young and his passionate culinary team in one of three onboard kitchens. Located immediately next to each dining area, guests are encouraged to explore the Train and visit the kitchen cars and see our chefs in action. (Included)
​
Arrive back to the depot and depart the wine train.
​
Our private driver picks us up for the next wine tour and tasting. Take pictures, enjoy your tour and tasting. Shop for souvenirs. Hopefully, we will be able to take the tram up the mountain to Sterling Vineyards to experience stunning views and some amazing wine. Sterling Vineyards was damaged in the recent fires but anticipate being open and ready for us when we arrive. (Included)
On our way back to San Francisco we'll enjoy beverages and snacks. Get your camera ready ...photo op time! We will stop at the Golden Gate Bridge to take some stunning 'gram worthy pics!
