Such a fun way to experience Sonoma!

Abby was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly connected to the Sonoma community. She seemed to know locals everywhere we went, which made the tour feel much more personal and gave us a real taste of the area. The entire afternoon was easy, relaxed, and just plain fun. And the food? Every single stop was delicious and hit just right! We ate, laughed, learned a little, and genuinely enjoyed ourselves from start to finish. Great food, great guide, great way to spend an afternoon in Sono...read more

Great tour with Abby

Abby was wonderful tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Sonoma. Also knowledgeable about the history and architecture and shopping, etc. in Sonoma. We had a lot of fun and Abby’s personality is very charming. Highly recommend this tour.

Great way to experience the town of Sonoma

Our guide Abby could not have been more personable, knowledgeable or helpful. The tour was exactly as promised - easy walking around downtown Sonoma - learned about the history and visited stores with deep rooted history in Sonoma. The day after the tour we want back and re-visited several of our stops (cheese, chocolate and olive oil stores).
