With more than 80 restaurants, 55 wine tasting rooms, a number of unique art-viewing opportunities, and a host of outdoor activities and experiences to see and do, it’s important for local establishments to be ecological guardians of the area, and just as crucial for visitors to do their part in keeping the region a pristine part of the Golden State

Many establishments in Downtown Napa provide details on their eco-friendly practices. When getting ready for your trip, pack a reusable water bottle for each traveler, which cuts down on purchasing plastic bottles that will most likely end up in the landfill. Depending on how long you’ll be staying in Downtown Napa (we suggest a long visit), ask the front desk to instruct the cleaning crew to change the bed sheets every two or three days, rather than daily, and don’t throw towels on the floor after a single-use. After all, would you do that at home?

The majority of wineries are committed to green practices, with many being awarded top certifications for sustainability. From low-impact harvesting to water conservation, these vintners are doing what’s best for the land, while often producing an even better product. Bring along a reusable wine tote or two to carry the delicious fruit of the vine you discover at Downtown Napa wine tastings. There are a number of area stores that sell the eco-friendly totes in a variety of designs, with some made by local artisans.

Practicing sustainability can arguably make the biggest difference when it comes to modes of transportation, and it’s the category in which Downtown Napa has the biggest advantage. For the ultimate sightseeing experience, take a hot air balloon tour and enjoy a birds-eye view of one of the most beautifully-preserved places in the world. Powered by propane, which is nontoxic and insoluble in water (so it poses no threat to the groundwater supply), the morning ride is an ideal way to start the day and see the breathtaking scenery.
