Calistoga Balloons.
Old Faithful Geyser of CA - Come visit a grand old show, a spectacular, nature- directed performance. The stage, walled by thick bamboo and plumed pampas grass, appears as an innocent pool of shallow water until time for the major attraction. Uprising steam and bubbling hot water announce the geyser. 
The Sharpsteen Museum - The museum's permanent exhibits are designed to present the history of the upper Napa Valley from its pre-history to post World War I with an emphasis on people and changes brought by the period of U.S. emigration and development.

One of Napa Valley’s most famous tourism experiences is a classic hot air balloon ride. A hot air balloon consists of a wicker basket, or gondola, suspended below a special ‘envelope’ made of durable, lightweight synthetic fabric. This envelope is most commonly made of ripstop nylon or dacron, and is often coated with a sealer to ensure that it is impermeable to air. Mounted directly below the envelope is a propane burner, which heats the air inside the envelope to the point that it is lighter and more buoyant than the surrounding atmosphere. This is what ultimately enables the balloon to rise into the air.
