When you land

Things to do in Napa

The city of Napa sits at the southern end of Napa Valley, which runs about 30 miles north through Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford and St. Helena to Calistoga. Hundreds of wineries line Highway 29 and the Silverado Trail, and the valley’s Cabernet Sauvignon has been world famous since the 1976 Judgment of Paris tasting, when Napa wines from Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars and Chateau Montelena outscored top French bottles. Wine production, hospitality, vineyard real estate and events make up most of the local economy.

  1. 01

    Napa Valley Wine Train

    Restored vintage railcars carry passengers on a leisurely round trip through the vineyards from downtown Napa, with multi-course meals and tours that stop at partner wineries.

  2. 02

    Oxbow Public Market

    Downtown Napa’s food hall gathers local purveyors, oyster bars, bakeries, wine and coffee under one roof beside the Napa River, a good stop before heading up valley.

  3. 03

    Yountville

    This small town packs an exceptional concentration of restaurants into a few walkable blocks, led by Thomas Keller’s The French Laundry and his more casual bistro, Bouchon.

  4. 04

    Silverado Trail

    The quieter road along the valley’s eastern edge links many well-known wineries, including those of the Stags Leap District, and offers a calmer alternative to Highway 29.

  5. 05

    Calistoga

    At the north end of the valley, Calistoga is known for geothermal hot springs, volcanic-ash mud baths and spa resorts, along with a relaxed main street and nearby wineries.

  6. 06

    Castello di Amorosa

    Near Calistoga, this winery built in the style of a medieval Tuscan castle features towers, a drawbridge, courtyards and barrel-lined underground cellars open for tours and tastings.
