ROMANCE ON THE RAILS
Now here’s an idea for romantic getaway that you probably haven’t considered: Enjoying a gourmet dinner and wine tasting on a vintage
passenger train in the Wine Country. There’s something about riding on a train that oozes with romance, and to ride along with your significant other is all the better. The Napa Valley Wine Train is a rolling restaurant of vintage-style cars—each finished with polished Honduran mahogany paneling and etched-glass partition—that makes a scenic journey through the vineyards of Napa, Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena while uniformed wait staff serve gourmet dinners and plenty of fine wine.
