          Napa Day Trip - Winter Version
          We had a great day touring three Napa wineries with Napa Native - our guide Cali was extremely knowledgeable and fun! We started in SF and drove through Sonoma and made our first stop at Cuvaison - we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Kelly was a wonderful hostess and the wines were delicious. Next to a small producer of primarily Cabs and blends, we arrived at Porter and our host Luis. Terrific experience - amazing wines along with a great time. After lunch in downtown Napa, we arrived at our last winery - Matthaisson for their exceptional tasting with a knowledgeable and enthusiastic host. Cali was very informative and explained a lot about the areas and wineries - climate of the valley, varietals planted to maximize quality/taste, history and so on.... We'd highly recommend Cali and would request him on a return visit. Tyler and Krystal were very helpful in developing the itinerary. Tyler was a gracious host back at their ranch and shared tastes of some of their delicious wines on offer. Overall - can't rave enough at how great our experience was!

          Can't Miss Unique Wine and Hike in Napa Valley!
          We were thrilled with our experience with Tyler and Napa Native! The Wine & Wellness Tour was the perfect blend of enjoying nature and exercise with an introduction to two fabulous winemakers - Napa Native and White Rocks. Tyler was the ultimate host and tour guide, and we thoroughly enjoyed our personalized vegetarian lunch of delicious wood fired pizzas and salad from Chef Josh overlooking the vineyards. Truly a perfect Napa experience and we can't recommend highly enough!

          Our most EPIC day in Wine Country
          We cannot say enough about Tyler, Matthew, Krystal and Napa Native! Our family went to Napa Valley during harvest to celebrate our Son's 30th Birthday and my husband's retirement. We did some epic stuff while in Napa and this was without a doubt the highlight of our trip. Honestly, the description doesn't do this day justice. If you want a special private and overall amazing introduction to Napa Valley that checks all of the boxes in one day - Getting out in beautiful nature, eating delicious food while tasting incredible wine with the wine maker overlooking his private estate/vineyard and then getting to end with another private tasting in a wave cave, seeing how the wine is actually produced and at an incredible facility that offers the most spectacular views of Napa Valley with some awesome peeps that are incredibly entertaining and knowledgeable this is the tour for you. It was worth every penny and will go down as being the highlight of our trip to Napa and one of the best days we have had. Thanks so much Tyler and Crew! You guys are awesome. Cheers!

          Napa Native Girls Trip
          Napa Native was amazing! I called them told them what I wanted. They took care of everything including making reservations to all the winery we requested. Our driver was so knowledgeable and helpful. He was on time picking us up. The car was spotless. I will definitely be booking them every time I'm in Napa Valley California.

          We were driven by Matthew, our ride was comfortable, and he was a very knowledgeable and fun host! He went above and beyond to personalize our 2 days. We will recommend you to anyone coming to the valley

          Great tour! Mathew was awesome! So much fun and personalized! Only wish we had more time at each place and maybe one less winery to visit. But overall great experience!

          Best part of our vacation in Napa!
          This excursion was the absolute highlight of our trip to Napa Valley. Right from the initial booking, we knew we were in good hands. Tyler and his team did an excellent job of getting to know us then recommending a couple wine tour options that suited our preferences perfectly! The day started with a pickup in a beautiful SUV that comfortably sat all 4 of us, then we headed north to check out a cave tour in Calistoga, before stopping at the grocery store in St. Helena to grab our picnic lunch on our way to stop #2. The last winery we visited was our favourite in Yountville, and we got to hear a ton of great history and incredible stories about the area (and the families that built Napa Valley to what it is today) from our guide throughout the day. We ended the day with a final impromptu visit to the owner's winery and got to know him personally, and we could not get over how relaxing the vibe was and how picturesque the entire valley is from end to end. Tyler - you were an incredible host and we will be sure to tell all our friends and family to check out Napa Native if they ever head that way. We can't wait for another trip to see and learn even more. I wish I could give more than 5 stars because this was a 10-star experience! Thank you for an incredible and memorable vacation!

          Terrific tour combination of hiking and wine tasting/touring
          This tour exceeded our expectations. Our guide was entertaining and knowledgeable about the history of the area and the wineries. The hike was energizing and beautiful and the lunch food and wine pairings were delicious. The winery tours were interesting and informative. Everyone in our group was really pleased with how we spent our day. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to mix a good bit of wine tasting with being outdoors!

          Great Trip!
          Matthew and the entire experience were wonderful! We visited smaller businesses/vineyards which made the tour more welcoming and comfortable. Mathew answered all our questions, provided recommendations, and made us feel welcomed. All three sports were fun and informational, but Reid's vineyard and Napa native made us feel welcome and trusted, would visit again!

          Napa Native was the way to go!
          It was a wonderful day with Matthew! So knowledgeable & friendly, we never felt rushed, and simply enjoyed our day. This was our first visit to Napa and the tour was tailored to our preferences. We loved the "family" feel of the smaller vineyards and that we were trying wine we could not find in our liquor stores/groceries. We will definitely use Napa Native on any future visits and recommend them to our friends.

          I highly recommend Napa Native Tours!
          I give Napa Native my highest recommendation. My friends and I truly hit the jackpot with Tyler. Born and raised in Napa he knows everything about the area. On the way to our wineries he gave us a great overview of Napa history, the various vineyards and winemakers, and pointed out landmarks along the way. He helped to keep us on schedule and when we were running late he called ahead to our next destination to alert them, and even had lunch waiting for us when we arrived at the restaurant. Tyler exceeded our expectations and absolutely made our day!

        The Napa Native Experience was a great way to start our trip in Napa. We booked this tour for our first full day and it was a great way to take the decision making process out of our hands. A lot of tours in Napa do not include tasting fees, meals, or itinerary but this experience took care of all those items. Tyler drove us around and was very knowledgeable about the area, plus the wines we ended up drinking. Would highly recommend booking this experience!

        JOSHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
        We had the best time ever on our 3 winery tour with Josh from Napa Native driving us!! As a group of 10 women, the van was perfect and Josh maneuvered it like a pro through the mountains! He was polite, funny and had the best music playing to keep the party going between vineyards. We had a little mix up with time and did not get to stop by the market to pick up picnic food but, Josh was kind enough to get us all lunch from the best deli while we were on one of our tours! Overall we had a great experience that we would recommend to anyone visiting Napa. 10/10!!!! Ask for Josh!

        We did the engagement package and it was truly the most amazing day! Tyler worked with my fiancé to create a wine tour that fit exactly what we were looking for: from small vineyards to good views and even better wine. The lunch we had was also the best meal we had in Napa by far. I’ve told all my friends that this is truly a can’t miss tour, and our time in Napa would not have been the same without it! The Napa native team really went above and beyond to insure we had the best day possible - Tyler even hid in the bushes to capture the proposal perfectly via drone, and made sure we had numerous backup plans depending on the weather. No detail was left out!

        Tyler was the best guide/host ever! We had a work group of 12 people from across the United States. This was the first time some of them had ever hiked in their life! They all enjoyed being in the great outdoors. The next & final stop was to Julie Johnson's vineyard Tres Sabores. It was such a special place and her team was outstanding. The dinner was in her vineyard under a canopy of trees and twinkle lights. The Chef provided the most delicious meal...the best we had during our entire stay in Napa Valley! We didn't want to leave. If you are looking for a thoughtful and FUN experience book soon!

        After our amazing hot air ballon flight our guide Tyler greeted us at our house with 3 glasses of his delicious sparkling wine he made at his winery (only 25 cases). Home run for me and my parents for the start!!. After the greeting and meeting we took off into the valley for a very personalized very private tour he puts together for you. 100% will be going back!! It is what he advertised. You will get the Napa Native experience you want with Tyler and try some of the best wines in the world!!

        Our Napa Native tour was even better than we imagined. Visiting small, family owned wineries was exactly what we were looking for. We got to ask lots of questions, we learned about what goes in to running a small production winery and we got to taste amazing wines. Our guide Matthew was incredibly knowledgeable and shared the storied history of the valley between our stops. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Napa.

        From start to finish the best experience with The Napa Native.
        Krystal and Tyler were the best planners. Taking everything into consideration, bookings, timelines, insider advice on the best wineries and why. It was my 40th birthday and they made every detail perfection.
        Josh was our driver both days and was such a pleasure to be around. He was easy going, extremely professional, educational and accommodating. I cannot say enough about this team. Look no further for a tour. Napa Native is the BEST!

        Amazing time! We were a little worried at first that there would only be 3 stops, but this is enough and filled our day!

        Napa Native took us to 3 mom and pop wineries, they were perfect! It was very private, which we loved. No ‘disney land’ wineries.

        The driver was amazing, friendly —- but what was the best, he read the audience. I’ve had it in the past where the driver talks non-stop, this driver let us have fun and listen to music on Bluetooth.

        One last thing, we were originally 9 and had 2 late adds the morning of. They made it work!
