Experience Details
Head out for a fantastic tour of Napa Valley with The Toast to explore the most famous vineyards in the U.S. You’ll be picked up at the airport and whisked to the ANDAZ NAPA, and a special welcome dinner.
Highlights include a scenic champagne hot-air balloon ride to set the stage, priority access to winemakers and owners, plus massages & mud spas, exquisite wine and food pairing class, and special surprises for an experience of a lifetime.
With over 400 vineyards, Napa Valley is the quintessential first stop to celebrate American wines and winemakers. A veritable fantasyland for wine lovers, this spectacular wine region offers history, wineries, culture and fabulous restaurants.
In recognition of the Thomas fire that swept Napa Valley destroying life, homes, wildlife and the livelihood of many in the wine industry, a percentage of The Toast proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross California Wildfires Fund to restore vineyards and businesses.
