napa valley wine train

a first timer to napa so we took the wine train. wouldn't do it again, tho. its a but cheesy and the views on the train are not as good as you can get in your car. thefoodwas mediocre and in par with a dinner theater...and over priced. if you do go, bring your own bottle of wine and pay the $15 corkage fee instead of $15 per glass from their selections. nothing special here.

romantic. went with cat cooper....awesome experience with great views! thefoodis very good and a very special treat! all good and first class. the entire outing is very well arranged and they do a great job. for a special treat....this is the ticket!

this is by far one of the best experiences i've ever had. as a local, it made me appreciate napa valley in an entirely different way. thefoodwas amazing and everyone had a smile on their face. i would do it again in a heartbeat!

...thefoodis decent, but what really matters is the beautiful views you get. plus when else do you get to have a multi-course meal on the train? it seems like something out of a james bond movie or an agatha christie novel.

fun and different. the wine train is an out and out tourist attraction in the wine country. it is a ride. a train ride. a real train ride, with wine and food.

if you ride amtrak, you may have had the dining car experience. it is not that. this is an old beauty, and it tours the wine country. you can either take a trip with a winery stop or not.

i would recommend this not so much as a dining experience as a fun afternoon out with someone special. it is a delightful idea for a parent and older child - a special date. there is cider for the kids, and the experience has that oh so adult sensation at the same time. as a couples date, also fun. fun because it is different. it gives you ample conversation time, getting to know each other time. good for those phases of dating.

later on, it could be cheesy. thefoodis pretty good.

riding the rails to good cooking. we had heard a great deal about dining while you ride the rails. so we reserved our seats and were never once disappointed from the drinks served before dinner to the entrees we enjoyed. and the atmosphere was exceptional. imagine looking out over napa valley in a dining car slowly while you are served exceptionalfoodby cordial servers. i want to do this again for another special occasion.
