About this activity
Itinerary
Beyond its lush natural scenery, Napa Valley also boasts a storied history.
Luckily, you can explore both of these elements with the Napa River History
Kayak Tour. Under the supervision of an experienced guide,
the tour will embark from 680 Main Street, right near downtown Napa.
From there, you and your party will be outfitted with kayaks before taking to the
serene waters of the Napa River for a journey through the past and present of this
unique area. For the following hour-and-a-half to two hours, you will paddle
alongside your guide as they give you a run-down of local lore, including tales
you’re not likely to read about in any guidebook.
You’ll learn about the first settlers to Napa Valley, as well as Napa’s famed wineries and local businesses. Did you know that Napa was established before California was a state? Or that Elvis performed and stayed in Napa? These are just two of the many interesting factoids your guide will offer up during your voyage— historical trivia ranging from the amazing to the bizarre.

• Enjoy Napa Valley, Napa, CA

This Tour was a ton of Fun. I saw Turtles, Otters and some gorgeous birds. I also learned a lot of interesting History about the Napa Valley. It was a nice change from wine tasting.
I have been on a number of tours like this before and they are either way too long or super boring. However, this tour was PERFECT. It's only about 2 hours long and includes about 30-40 mins of free time where you get to explore on your own. The first part of the tour with the guide Justin I think was his name, was really informative and interesting. He talked about everything from the Wildlife, to Local Scandals, and Old History dating back to the Gold Rush. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something Fun to do, other than wine tasting.
