Wine Country Tours By Train

Drink in the scenery and some vintage cabernet.


Whether you are planning a romantic evening out, a girls' night or your birthday party, consider a wine tour. A sophisticated yet fun activity, wine tours give you a chance to enjoy good company and tasty drinks. If you live near an area where several wineries are close to a railroad, look into booking a wine tour by train. Here are just a few options.


Napa Valley Wine Train


The Napa Valley in California is one of the country's prominent wine-producing regions, and the Napa Valley Wine Train is a special way to experience it. Choose from four tour options, depending on which wineries or locations you would like to visit. All tours include wine education from an expert, as well as a delectable three-course meal. The wine train is also available for special occasions, so consider booking your wedding, retirement party or company holiday party here. Check the website for special activities such as murder mystery tours and historic tours.


Santa Barbara Daylight Vino Train


The Santa Barbara Daylight Vino Train, which will whisk you from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara, presents you with the opportunity to visit 12 wineries --- too many for one day. Start with a buffet breakfast on the 1940s-style train, and enjoy the two-hour ride. Upon arrival, the train's wine guide will advise you regarding which wineries to visit depending on your tastes, and you will be able to relax and let someone else do all the planning of your Santa Barbara adventure. After six hours in the town, board the train again and rest your feet while enjoying a light dinner.


Niagara Grape and Wine Tours


California isn't the only place to find wine tours by train. Niagara Grape and Wine Tours offers a train tour in the Niagara wine country. The itineraries on these tours constantly change, rotating visits among 80 wineries in the Niagara, Ontario, area. In addition to day-trip choices for brunch, lunch, dinner or a tasting, you can book vacation packages through Grape and Wine Tours. Choose from more than 10 bed and breakfasts, inns and hotels that partner with the wine train for a great deal on a getaway that includes a "lunch fiesta" wine train tour.
