 Napa Valley Traveling Tips

Traveling in Napa Valley is a simple way to experience luxury and leisure. Whether you're here for the wine or the picturesque views, there's are some tips and tricks to make your travels unforgettable for all of the right reasons. There are some must-see destinations for any traveler in Napa Valley, and a way to tie your itinerary together with ease.

Wineries

If you're coming to town as a wine lover, there are a few things you're going to want to keep in mind. Summer is the most popular time for tourists to come into town, but it's not necessarily the best time to visit. Coming in September and October allows you to beat the crowds and overbooked hotels. Plus, this is "crush" time when they harvest the grapes. Here are two of the best wineries to visit when you're in the area!

V.Sattui Winery

This is a favorite with locals and tourists because of the sprawling grounds that make it perfect for relaxing and having a picnic. The atmosphere is always jovial here with a family-friendly vibe.

Cakebread

This is a lesser-known winery than V.Sattui, and it happens to be an appointment only. Don't let that intimidate you though, as the staff is extremely friendly at this small boutique. Their educational tour is incredibly informational, and you get to sip wine as you tour the facility.  Perfect for groups!

Relaxation

Napa is known for its grapes, but did you know their mud baths are a huge drawing point? There are high concentrations of nutrient-rich volcanic ash content in the north end of the Valley. The therapeutic mud baths are a mixture of ash, hot spring water, moss, and other natural minerals. Dr. Wilkinson's is the original source for mud baths in the valley, and Golden Haven Hot Springs is another worthy option to check out.

Traveling Safely

One way to tie your Napa Valley itinerary together is to ensure that your transportation is taken care of. If you're new or unfamiliar to the area, you're going to have to deal with things like finding directions, dealing with traffic, and figuring out where to get parking. If you're with a group, a Bus Company in Napa offers the perfect solution. It's a lot better than ordering a ride share service, and the features in a party bus are incomparable to the back seat of a sedan.
