ACTIVITIES

Lots of boutiques, restaurants and sidewalk cafes in a setting with a European flair and wonderful climate.

Napa Valley: About 45 minutes Northeast of San Francisco by car, Napa Valley offers a serene pastoral landscape filled with verdant valleys ideal for the production of fine wines. Wine tasting, excellent restaurants, boutiques and premium outlet shopping can occupy you for a day or a week.
