Overview of the Luxury Driving Experience
A road trip through idyllic Napa Valley is dreamy, but the Four Seasons enhances this experience with a unique itinerary. Situated in Northern California’s wine country, this resort offers guests a chance to drive Italian supercars while enjoying a week of gourmet food and exquisite wines. Following the success of their extraordinary road trip through Tuscany and the European Alps, the Drive Experience is now available in the U.S., specifically in Napa Valley.
Itinerary Highlights
This fall, guests can cruise the picturesque hills while sampling the best of Napa. The Four Seasons, which opened in Calistoga in November 2021, boasts 22.5 acres and is the region’s only resort located within a working winery, Elusa Winery.
Travelers can either bring their vehicle or select a stunning ride from the fleet provided by Canossa Events. Whether it’s a sophisticated Aston Martin DB11, a dynamic Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, or a crimson Ferrari 488 GTB, guests can explore Napa Valley in style. Once you choose your vehicle, the Four Seasons will guide you through an exceptional wine journey.
From Oct. 29 to Nov. 4, enjoy exclusive access to iconic vineyards like Opus One, renowned for its collaboration between winemaking icons Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi. Other must-visit locations include SingleThread Farm and Hog Island, where guests can learn about sustainable oyster farming.
Dining and Relaxation
Upon returning to the hotel, relaxation awaits. The experience begins with a welcome dinner in the Vineyard Barn, nestled amidst stunning mountain views and rows of cabernet vines. In the following days, partake in private ferry tours around San Francisco Bay and conclude with a hot-air balloon ride over the vineyards. A farewell gala dinner marks the end of this extraordinary adventure, allowing guests to savor one last breakfast.
During downtime, enjoy Spa Talisa, two scenic pools overlooking the vineyards, and culinary delights prepared by Chef Rogelio Garcia at Auro, Calistoga’s only Michelin-rated restaurant. Unwind at Truss with a glass of wine on the patio, or relax by your room’s fireplace, basking in the beauty of Napa Valley.
