Last weekend we were in Napa Valley, CA and it was SUCH a dream. Ever since I could legally start drinking I’ve wanted to visit Napa. I’ve always been a huge wine lover so I knew it was a place I would enjoy. Let me just tell ya, it did NOT disappoint. It was amazing and would highly recommend for a birthday or couples trip.
Breaking down what we did, how we got there, etc today!
I believe you can fly into San Jose or San Francisco. We flew into SFO and rented a car. We stopped by the pier on our way out of San Fran for lunch I think the place we ate at was called Scoma’s. Then we continued our hour and a half drive! It went by pretty fast and was actually a gorgeous drive.
We chose to stay in Yountville which was such a picture perfect little town. So much to do in walking distance as well. Lots of great restaurants, places to stay, and even had the RH wine vault and restaurant. We stayed on The Estate property at Hotel Villagio. The rooms were amazing, breakfast was available every morning, heated pool, and the interiors were so gorgeous. Next time, I want to check out their spa! You can use code AUDREY15 for a discount on both Hotel Villagio and Vintage House. Valid until the end of 2022.
Tip: Book wineries and restaurants immediately. We booked about 2 months ahead of our trip and still struggled at finding prime times for dinner and a few wineries I wanted to visit were completely booked.
We spent time in between strolling the area and popping into shops near our hotel. It was so lovely!
Lastly, we did hire a driver for our first full day of wineries. My girlfriend Geordian found him, and he was AMAZING. Highly recommend! His name is Gary, he’s a private driver, you can find him on the Viator app or email him at Nvsuv@comcast.net.
