Napa Valley Honeymoon

There are many romantic honeymoon packages available to newlyweds coming to Napa Valley.  These include winery tours, hot air balloon rides, train, boat, bike and golf packages.

Beautiful Napa Valley is in northern California, about an hour’s drive north of San Francisco.  You can easily reach the valley from one of three airports:  San Francisco International Airport (SFO), Oakland International Airport (OAK), and Sacramento Airport (SAC).  The valley is home to more than 260 wineries, and is about 30 miles long and ranges from one to five miles wide.

There are many romantic honeymoon packages available to newlyweds coming to Napa Valley.  These include winery tours, hot air balloon rides, train, boat, bike and golf packages.  The least expensive tour that we found on line was the Flora Springs Cave Tour and Lunch at $45 per person, which includes a 90 minute winery and cave tour.  Barrel-tasting and a picnic lunch on the vineyard patio are included in the price.

For $130 per person, you can board the world-famous Napa Valley Wine Train, eat a gourmet 4-course meal and enjoy a two hour, guided river cruise on the Napa River.  A hot air balloon flight above Napa Valley will cost $220 per person and includes preflight coffee, juice and pastries as well as a post-flight champagne breakfast.  And for those who want to see and do it all, there is the Balloon and Train Package that starts at $320 each.  It includes all of the amenities of the $220 package in addition to the train ride, gourmet meal and complimentary wine tasting.

The Napa Valley Conference and Visitors Bureau is located in Napa, California and is open Monday-Sunday from 9am-5pm.  Most tourists come during the summer or in the “crush” of harvest (September and October).  There are far fewer people in the late fall, winter and spring.  The valley is beautiful all year long and if you plan your honeymoon in the off-season, you will have much more time to chat with the winery staff.
