California wine train tours make an ideal romantic honeymoon getaway for
newlyweds... even if you aren't a big wine connoisseur. Gourmet foods, fine
local vintages, and gorgeous California countryside are all yours to enjoy from
the comfort of a well-appointed train.
Sonoma Country and Napa valley, the two wine regions in California, are much
like Tuscany in appearance and in weather. Both regions are sprinkled with
quaint, historic villages... far removed from the urban hubbub you often
associate with California in general. This is not the California you've seen on TV!
Napa Valley is one of the most renowned wine regions in the world. It is nestled
some 500 miles from San Francisco Bay and was the first protected agricultural
preserve in the United States. Spring and Summer are considered off-season,
and will be the least crowded at this time. Autumn, however, sees the region
exploding in vibrant color, so if you don't mind a little more people around it is
the best time to visit.
Just west of Napa lies Sonoma valley. If you want a getaway that is less touristy
and busy, Sonoma is your better choice. It is dotted with small, family-owned
wineries set farther back in the lush countryside, and charming small villages
where you can sample the local fare. Be sure to check out the Russian River
Valley and have a romantic gourmet dinner right at the river's edge.
Train travel is evocative of old-fashioned luxury and comfort, and you'll find lots
of that on a California wine train tour. These trains are not your usual,
commuter-style locomotives. Relax and enjoy local wines and gourmet meals on
board such trains as a vintage 1915 first-class Pullman car. You'll experience
travel just like they used to do before airplanes.
If the idea of being stuck on a train doesn't appeal to you, never fear... you're not
limited to train travel only. You can find all sorts of different vacation packages
that offer various excursions. Want to enjoy a sunrise breakfast in a hot-air
balloon? Explore the vineyards on horseback? Your California train tour may just
offer these side trips... be sure to ask.
A California wine train tour is the perfect way to spend a romantic honeymoon.
