Sample itineraries
Three days in paradise
A sample three-day rhythm. Steal it outright or remix—swap days, add nights, or stretch into a longer stay. Distances stay short, but Napa Valley covers more ground than the valley floor alone, so leave room to actually enjoy the drive.

Customize this itineraryThe route
Two main roads, five towns, one valley.
Highway 29 runs the valley floor. The Silverado Trail traces the east side. Between them sit five towns and more wineries than any sensible itinerary can hold. Most hops between tastings and tables still clock in under twenty minutes.
Calistoga
Geothermal pools, spa days, the quieter finale.
St. Helena
Main Street, estate tastings, and Silverado Trail afternoons.
