Know before you go. Guests often have many questions related to our Gondola’s and experiences. See our frequently asked questions page to learn about the common answers about children, pets, and the Gondola.

All experiences include a round-trip gondola ride to and from our hilltop winery. If temperatures exceed 100 degrees, the gondola will be shut down to avoid heat safety concerns.

We can't wait to share our exceptional wines and breathtaking Napa Valley views from our Sterling Aerial Gondola with you! Experiences are available to book seven days a week, reservations are recommended. Walk-ins are welcome!
