We've put together a list of
team-building activities for company retreats in
Napa Valley
, including options that work well for both small and large teams.
Surrounded by Napa and Yountville vineyards, this Napa Valley retreat agenda focuses on structured team sessions paired with a guided winery experience and relaxed countryside evenings.
Napa Valley is ideal for teams that want a premium countryside experience focused on wine, food, and scenic landscapes. The region offers a calm, high-quality environment that encourages both focus and social connection.
Most teams fly into San Francisco International Airport (SFO) or Oakland International Airport (OAK), both about 1 to 1.5 hours away by car. Private transfers are commonly arranged for group travel.
Spring (March to May) and fall (September to November) are especially popular, with temperatures around 64–82°F. Fall harvest season is a highlight, while summer is warm and lively, and winter is quieter.
Popular bases include Napa town for convenience, Yountville for a more upscale and walkable experience, and St. Helena for a quieter, vineyard-focused setting.
Wine tastings are central, along with vineyard tours, cooking classes, hot air balloon rides, cycling, and spa experiences. Most activities are within a short drive of each other.
The region works well for this balance, especially in private estates or hotels. Teams can run sessions on-site and then transition into tastings or outdoor activities.
A 3 to 4 day retreat is common. This allows time for structured sessions, a few key experiences, and relaxed group dinners.
Napa Valley offers a more refined and slower-paced experience compared to coastal or urban locations. The focus on wine, food, and scenery creates a distinct atmosphere.
Yes, transportation is essential. Locations are spread out, and teams typically arrange private drivers or vans, especially when planning wine tastings.
Napa is known for its high-quality food scene. Teams often enjoy winery lunches, farm-to-table dinners, tasting menus, and private chef experiences.
It was amazing. I mean, the team was just absolutely over the top, thrilled. Everything was fantastic.
As we wrap up our first-ever company offsite in Portugal, I feel so grateful for the incredible experience we've shared as a team. This past week has been nothing short of amazing, filled with enriching and productive sessions, workshops, and memorable moments.
It was a massive success, the team loved every part of it and all of the restaurants, activities, transfer, etc. that you organised were excellent. I will certainly be contacting Surf Office again for anything I plan in the future.
We had a great retreat! So far all individual feedback that came back through a survey we sent out to the team, was super positive! Everyone really enjoyed it!
We loved it! Our management had very specific requirements for a retreat location... remote and in nature but with room for interaction. The venue and every aspect of this retreat matched that. We loved it so much that we even consider repeating the venue.
Everyone has commented on how well the retreat went, and we really do appreciate everything that you did to make it go so smoothly.
It was amazing. The whole team enjoyed everything. The hospitality, the area, the apartments, the sea view, the hotel staff, the old town. It was perfect, it was our best offsite.
Everything was amazing. So I have only good things to say. Team loved it. Again, I was very congratulated. They were very happy. Everything was on spot.
We have organized company retreats for our distributed 30 people team multiple times with Surf Office and the team has loved it every time. Surf Office has some great venues as part of their portfolio and do a great job helping to facilitate pretty much everything from accommodation, food, activities, airport transfers etc.
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
