Welcom to Wine On The napa river!

Tours start from a private river launch in the Los Carneros region of the Napa Valley, in our handcrafted, 20-foot wooden whale boat, a craft that is not only a work of art but holds historical significance to the early settlement of Napa Valley as well.

You'll paddle Polynesian style, side by side with your friends or family, or, you can opt for the guide to do the paddling! All tours will be riding the tide, making for a leisurely float into Fagan Preserve in the Los Carneros champagne region.

You'll glide through the quiet estuary and relax to the rhythm of your paddle breaking the surface of protected waters. The river's wetlands are the ocean’s incubator, a critical habitat zone that spills life into the larger San Francisco Bay. This is also the site of the $400 million Living River Restoration project that reintroduced the Napa River to its natural flood plain. With the river free again to meander, bird species have doubled. Steelhead and salmon are on the rise, and otters, beavers, and even sea lions have returned.  

Along the way your guide will point out the different famed wine growing regions visible in the nearby landscape. Tours include an optional splash of wine from three different wine appellations: Carneros, Mt. Veeder and Atlas Peak.

In addition to the river habitat, you'll take in views of Mt. Tamalpais, Mt. Diablo, Mt. Veeder, Atlas Peak, and Alta Heights under the wide-open sky. Tours include the rich human and ecological history of the region.
