Take a Romantic Gondola Ride Through California's Wine Country This Valentine's Day

"Gondola Servizio, a company that provides gondola cruises on Lake Merritt in Oakland, has been offering their specialty boat rides down the Napa River since 2018, according to the Napa Valley Register. Now that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, DoNapa.com is highlighting this extra-romantic activity. Guests can enjoy the gorgeous Napa Valley scenery while cruising down the river. To make it feel even more special, they can also bring a bottle of wine to share on the ride. Plus, the gondoliers at Gondola Servizio will point out interesting features along the river or historical facts while you ride. They may even serenade you with some traditional Venetian songs, even though gondoliers don’t traditionally sing, according to the Napa Valley Register. Cruises launch from the Main Street boat dock in downtown Napa. Guests can choose between the Valentine's Day package, which includes a private wine tasting, cheese plate, and sweet treats ($325 per couple), and the 60-minute Casanova cruise ($175 per couple)." - Travel + Leisure Editors
