Napa Valley Wine Train Announces New Holiday Journeys

"I’m excited that the Wine Train is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year and has launched all-new holiday journeys called the Santa Train Jolly Journeys, running November 30 to December 23. The program offers four distinct railway experiences: the 90-minute Santa’s Cookie Car (complete with hot cocoa, holiday cookies, holiday décor and seasonal music), the Gourmet Holiday Express (a dinner ride with seasonal hot cider and carolers at the station before boarding and a three-course menu of “scrumptious bites and sweet sips” served in an antique Pullman dining car), Jingle on the Rails (a Pullman lounge car experience with a multi-course gourmet holiday dinner from the train’s award-winning culinary team plus freshly baked cookies and cocoa), and the Very Merry Vista Dome (observation-style Dome car dining filled with holiday cuisine). The train also now offers onboard features like afternoon tea and a secret garden, and a portion of ticket proceeds will be donated to Expressions of Hope and The Napa Communities Firewise Foundation; guests are encouraged to book early at winetrain.com to secure seats with their travel companions." - Stacey Leasca
