My boyfriend suprised me with the sunset gourmet dinner on the wine train after he heard me talking about it - I just wish I'd done my research first. As this was my first trip to Napa, we found in the end that our time would have been much better spent in one of the many wonderful restaurants in the... more

We had the best dining experience of our 10 day vacation. Mario Battali should get lessons . We had a luncheon in Observation Car . It was world class dining. bubble top roof. A broad menu with everything measuring to a wow factor. The wine pairings as you can imagine was equally up to the task.. Our Dining Captain doubled... more

My feeling was that this might be a real tourist trap, and not 'our sort of thing', but couldn't have been more wrong. We took the Gourmet Lunch. The boarding process was, by necessity, very organized and regimented, but once on board the ambiance was great, the service superb and the food very good indeed. A great way spend 3... more

It was a Birthday trip to Napa area for one of our group member. A beautiful Friday on Sept 25, 2009 when we rode on the Napa Valley Wine Train. We had wonderful experience on the ride (beautiful car), the luncheon, and the winery tour. The server was very efficient, attentive and professional. The food was beautifully presented, and tasted... more

We went with a big group. 7 family members including my 5 year old. Everyone had fun. I wasn't aware you had to buy your own wine. I just assumed a glass or two would be complimentary. My daughter had a fun time. You could walk around and go all the way to the front or rear car. Food was... more

The food was not good at all and all drinks must be paid extra! I think it`s not worth for the money we paid for. The view what you see is just houses, cars and part of the vine yard. terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

The journey on the Napa valley wine train was one of the many highlights of our recent trip; the staff were very efficient and helpful (in particular to a disabled member of our group) and the food was of the highest quality, beautifully presented. more

A fun ride

Our party of four chose the open air silverado car. The menu is ala carte. We chose some wine and then split the cheese tray. The food and staff were awesome. Would do this again. more

We recently took a trip on the Wine Train during our stay in Napa for our honeymoon. We chose the a la carte train -- the price was right and we didn't want to be obligated to order food. This is the only car with windows that are open - this makes for fantastic photos, and since it was above... more
