Napa Valley Golf Guide

When most people hear the name Napa Valley, they think "wine." And this word-association is well earned, since this section of the Golden State produces enough barrels of fermented grape juice to keep the country's most populated state tipsy year round. Yet, of course, the region is world-famous for its wine because Napa Valley does not horde its products but instead ships its liquid delights around the globe.

Even teetotalers will likely enjoy the plethora of winery tours that travelers can partake of throughout the region. People who want to sample the seemingly endless varietals at one winery after another can do so until their hearts are content and their bellies are full, and yet many of the wineries themselves are as opulent as palaces, as ritzy as the Ritz, so even non-drinkers will find plenty to intrigue them. Guests to the region who want to travel in style while avoiding any drinking-and-driving anxiety can hop aboard a motorized San Francisco cable car for a six-hour Napa Valley Wine Trolley Tour, which includes lunch and visits to four wineries.

As for accommodations, travelers can't go wrong at the Hennessey House, particularly if their Napa Valley excursion is a romantic one, since this regal establishment specializes in classy elegance. Of course, the Villagio Inn & Spa, a Tuscany-inspired getaway, also knows how to pamper its guests in a manner that almost ensures their return.

As famous as Napa Valley is for its wineries and its luxury, the valley is equally famous for being home to the country's best restaurant, the French Laundry. Yes, culinary supremacy is subject to subjectivity, but this restaurant has proven that food can, indeed, be transcendent, so travelers who want to partake of this dining experience should book very far in advance.

And then there's the golf in the region...
