ABOUT

You all are too good! Thank you all for the best trip ever to Napa Valley. I lived in both Fairfield and Sacramento over the years, and frequented the area. I also have traveled to Napa Valley many times for multi night trips, but I have never traveled Virtuoso style!
Meadowood is just as lovely as my clients told me it was, and Viviani does an outstanding job, both exceeded my expectations. Thank you on behalf of my little group, for making this the memory we will cherish always!!
- Mary Misinco
I wanted to thank you for the exceptional job you did planning and organizing our Commodities Fall Energy Symposium. You far exceed my expectations. In my 11 years as a corporate event planner in the financial space our event in Napa was the most successful event I have had. The wine tours were exceptional. The time you spent finding the perfect fit for my group was amazing. Having the experience of being in private homes at spectacular vineyards was outstanding.
I have received numerous thank you notes. My internal clients were thrilled with the experience. Please use me as a reference for any group you have coming to Napa. It was my first time doing a program of this nature and you handled every detail flawlessly.

If you are even considering exploring wine country, Linda Viviani is the first person you need to contact. She's practically the unofficial mayor of the area, with the extensive knowledge and resources to make anyone's trip there be exactly what they want - and more. I was entirely impressed with the care and thoughtfulness she puts into her work, and would not hesitate to recommend her to any friends or associates with high standards. She truly delivers - and with a smile on her face too.
