To say Napa Valley is the jewel in northern California’s crown would be an understatement. Although it’s just an hour’s drive from San Francisco on America’s West Coast, there’s a very different pace of life here. Its laid-back, small-town feel ticks every box. Wine, of course. In fact, there are more than 400 wineries, with stunning hillside vineyards. Blue skies and blazing sun, yes. Friendly locals, definitely. Great nightlife – and the food… wow!
