Captured on the Wine Train

We are starting off strong with our renowned picturesque car, The Vista Dome! This is where timeless allure meets the enchanting vistas of wine country, pictured by @caseycalistaa on Instagram.

This car offers an enchanting backdrop that will effortlessly blend elegance with the scenic beauty of the rolling vineyards. From romantic moments to the stunning wine country, you can fill your Instagram feed with envy-inducing pictures that your followers can’t help but admire.

Quick tip: when looking to capture the aesthetic of the car, take clothing colors and patterns into consideration. The velvet booths in the Vista Dome are red, so be sure to wear an outfit that will create contrast and really pop!

If you ride aboard the Legacy Experience, keep your eyes peeled and get a photo at the iconic Napa Valley sign from the open-air car of the Napa Valley Wine Train (as pictured by @ang_gutierrez)! Selfie sticks are encouraged, but don’t be surprised when our team volunteers to snap a shot for you! The warm sun, gentle breeze, and scenic views create the perfect backdrop for the snapshot to remember your Napa experience long after your train returns to the station.

But that’s not all the Legacy Experience has to offer. Our car’s interior is just as stunning as the exterior! See for yourself in @ms_nanakay’s photo.

The Legacy Experience offers opportunities to stop at two world-renowned wineries — Charles Krug Winery and V. Sattui Winery. If you want to snap a photo that’s perfect for the ‘gram, strike a pose at one of these wineries in front of the Wine Train

As the train gently winds its way through the picturesque vineyards, head to the caboose to capture the lush green rows of vineyards, creating a stunning backdrop against the railroad tracks like @focusonyourcraft. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this mesmerizing masterpiece truly captures the essence of Napa Valley’s rich heritage and renowned culture.

Last, but most definitely not least, Napa Valley Wine Train’s most insta-worthy shot is the boarding-the-train moment of excitement and thrill of embarking on a timeless journey. Just take a look at this iconic shot @sellwithsami shared with us! We recommend getting the right angle and simply flashing that dazzling smile! This image evokes the wanderlust of generations.

Our best tip for getting this shot just right involves a little trick — consider taking this photo at the end of your journey instead of the beginning. That way, you won’t have to worry about other guests boarding or the train’s travel schedule. After the ride, there is plenty of time to leisurely optimize a recreation of that special moment when you first board the train. Don’t worry, your secret’s safe with us!
