What To Expect

Napa Valley

Your tour will begin with pickup from your Napa Valley hotel. Where you are staying will define the tour region that you will be visiting. If your accommodations are outside of the winery region, you can arrange to meet us a general meeting spot. You’ll visit three charming, backroads wineries and be served a picnic lunch in an idyllic winery setting. Your tour guide will tell fascinating stories and share many interesting tidbits about local history, culture and wine making. This is not a smarmy or touristy activity. Our specialty is intimate, light-hearted and truly memorable. This tour is sure to entertain with a very approachable and easy-going style. Discover and savor new experiences tasting some of the world’s most celebrated wines. Our typical guest is not necessarily a wine expert but keen to learn a bit about wine and wine-making, and is open to sharing the experience with a few other like-minded wine adventurers.

This tour was such a gem! Our day consisted of 3 tasting experiences at some of the smaller, family-owned wineries in Napa Valley (all of which were beautiful and unique). Our driver, Steve, was really the highlight of the day, he’s incredibly knowledgeable about wine and the history of Napa which made for an entertaining ride to and from wineries. I would definitely do this tour again.

The communication from platypus was amazing. They contacted us about when we would be picked up and the length of the tour. We were picked up promptly at our time at the hotel which was great. Jason took us to three wonderful wineries. Each winery had its own unique personality and wines. It was nice to be in a small group of people that all enjoyed wine and having a good time. Would definitely use them again if I return to Napa Valley.

Hey Procket: It's so nice to hear from you; Thanks for posting! I'm very proud of our reservation team and their level of communication, organization and caring in terms of making sure every guest is fully informed and that they understand just what to expect. Glad also to hear that you loved your guide Jason, and all of the backroads wineries he chose for you to visit that day. We'd certainly love to see you again someday soon!

Steve was great. Very knowledgeable and hospitable. All three wineries were amazing. Highly recommend Viatar and Platypus tours.
