For FAQs about hot-air ballooning, please visit Napa Valley Balloons' website.

You'll ride an average of 3 to 6 miles between stops.  Half-Day Tours cover 10-15 miles. Full-Day Tours typically cover 12-18 miles. The terrain is mostly flat to gently rolling. And don't forget, you'll have an E-Bike with four levels of pedal assist at your fingertips!

Our tour routes include a combination of quieter country roads as well as busier roadways – including some stretches along Hwy. 29 and Silverado Trail where a Class II Bike Lane is present. We also frequently ride along the Napa Valley Vine Trail (car-free bike path).

The wineries don't have dress codes, but we understand you want to blend with other guests. Our advice is to think "smart active" - like you would for a round of golf.

Recommended: Warm layers for cool mornings, shorts or capris, longer pants with tapered/slim fitted legs, flat-soled shoes, sunglasses, sandals (as long as they are secure) -  and definitely sunscreen!

Not Recommended: Denim (heavy seams can become uncomfortable), maxi dresses or wide-legged pants (loose clothing can get caught in the chain or spokes), wedge heels, flip flops, mules.

Wine tasting fees are not included in the price of the bike tour because the wineries we visit vary daily and also, your fees may be waived when you make a minimum purchase or join a wine club.

Definitely! Bouchon Bakery's seasonal menu always includes a vegetarian option that can be modified for vegans.  A gluten-free salad option is available and includes with a gluten-free dessert. If you have more specific needs, please reach out to us.
