Riverfront Captains & Mansions Historic District Tour

The Riverfront Captains & Mansions Historic District Walking Tour will take you down to the Napa Abajo – East, one of the oldest neighborhoods in the City of Napa along the Napa River. It should take about 45 minutes to an hour, longer if you choose to access the additional information provided for some sights. The route is easily walkable, approximately 1 mile.

There are few crosswalks and most streets do not have stop signs, so please be cautious and look both ways before crossing. The sidewalks are in fair condition, however be aware that many of the trees have uprooted large sections of the pavement. It is led by Scott Sedgely, Napa’s Mayor and traditional Riverfront Captain Tour Leader.

Mark your calendars!
