Our Wine SurvivorTeam Building Program is a fun way to hone skills in leadership, strategy, logistics, cooperation and of course tasting endurance, while exploring Napa's beautiful wine country.
Designed for groups from 10 to 50 it starts with a short presentation outlining the ground rules and criteria for success. Then, maps in hand, the teams are assigned their own driver/trainer and head to Wine Country with a mission; plot out an enjoyable wine tour for all of the team members. They enjoy a customized wine tour, rather than a generic bus trip, and their expressing their preferences is required to meet their goals and win the team prize.
The training materials include our Custom Maps, Tour Books and Mobile Apps. The training has a base price of $2500.00 and is prorated for the size of the group.
A Day in Wine Country for Your Group.
While the Wine Survivor is fun, just touring Wine Country for a day helps your team connect, away the stress of the work place. The great vistas, country hospitality, wonderful food and world class wines provide a treat and a new perspective.
Destination Managment Companies often use stock tours for large groups, but we find that creating tours customized around the clients interests creates a more enriching experience. We arrange transportation, meals, snacks, tastings and winery tours for your group, and private tours for your incentive programs. We work in English, Spanish, Italian, French and German.

The North Bay Wine Country is made up of Napa & Sonoma, two big, agricultural counties, so if you are staying locally our suggestions are based on your enjoyment and comfort.
Napa & Sonoma, A Love Affair in Maps, A Book
Ralph & Lahni have an interesting perspective on wine country, it's a love affair really, a passion for the place that has resulted in eight books, numerous Apps containing thousands of beautiful photos, and a huge number of tours with clients from around the world. They bring those insights to the audience in an entertaining and educational style using photos, maps and a wonderful collection of stories.
Ralph is often asked how he became so knowledgeable on the subject and he explains, "Napa and Sonoma has more wine educators than anyplace else on the planet. Whenever possible I take the winery tour with my clients, and I incorporate that in our articles, books and Apps. You do that long enough and some of it sticks, hopefully the good stuff."
A speech can also include a sample wine tasting, and there is nothing like getting glasses into the hands of the audience to make everyone feel at home visiting wine country.
