The tour guide’s selection of food and drinks in the various restaurants/shops that we went to were superb. It’s a great way to get some steps in as you learn a bit about Sonoma‘s history.
Abby was amazing! Nice,...

We had a wonderful time on our food tour with Abby!(even in the rain!) Fun, educational and informative. All of our stops were outstanding. Bought some cheese! The Mexican restaurant had an amazing dish! We need to get the recipe! Never had an Olive tasting before! That was interesting! Food at the wine bar was great and our last stop was to sample chocolate. Who doesn't like Chocolate! We highly recommend this tour! It broke up the week with a nice walking food with food.

Abbey was a great tour guide. We tasted delicious food, sipped yummy wine and margaritas, and learned a little Sonoma history along the way. Restaurant, winery and activity suggestions were a great bonus.

The historical reports by the hostess/ guide throughout the city and the warmth exuded at the places we stopped to eat, sip a little bubbly or chat.

This was an excellent tour. Our tour guide, Abby, was very fun! She shared lots of history and fun facts about Sonoma. The food we sampled was awesome and we were stuffed after the tour. I highly recommend this tour!

Abby was a great guide! She spoke about the history of Sonoma and showed us some quaint little shops around the plaza. The tastings were delicious and everyone was very welcoming and friendly! Definitely a must-do when visiting Sonoma.
Abby is the best!

Abby was so fun, so gracious and so knowledgeable about the area. There were five of us and we had a marvelous time. She has great relationships with many of the local businesses and they were all very accommodating. Thoroughly recommend!
Great time!

Mia was fabulous. She had great knowledge about the history of the town and a real passion for sharing it. There are a lot of great places around Sonoma, but she’s really curated a few of the best. I would fully recommend this tour!
Fantastic Experience

We love the Sonoma walking food tour! Mia was fantastic and we loved all of the stops! Especially Vella Cheese Factory. Highly recommend if you are in the Napa or Sonoma area.

Abbey our tour guide was AMAZING!
We were a group of four on a trip to Sonoma and this was the best way to learn about the town.
Abbey talked about the history of the area (missions etc)
We went to a Great cheese shop,, a couple of. Super restaurants and several other local shops including a chocolate shop!
I highly recommend this tour - you won’t be disappointed!
Wine?

I’ve done several food and wine tours in various locations and this tour is quite disappointing in comparison. I’m not sure how it can be labeled as a food and “wine” tour when we had one margarita and missed the one glass of wine this tour offered because it went over the scheduled time. Very slow moving tour. Venus that don’t offer enough or any seating. Does not feel worth the price. We wanted to experience Sonoma for it’s wine and unfortunately feel like we wasted an afternoon and experienced none of that.
Response from Host , Oct 2019
We’re sorry you were disappointed with our tour. It sounds like you would have enjoyed a wine tour more than our food tour and regrettably you ended up missing the wine tasting stop on the tour. Unfortunately, on the day you took the tour we had a guest with a disability which made the tour progress at a slower pace and caused some delays at our scheduled stops. We missed the mark and apologize that you didn’t experience Sonoma the way you had hoped to.
Great introduction to the Sonoma square

Our guide was wonderful, so friendly and great information. We had a wonderful time at all the stops on the tour.
Great experience!

My husband and I really enjoyed the small group food and wine tour. The Sonoma history was a bonus and Abby, the tour leader, was knowledgable and fun. We especially enjoyed the first stop, with the flatbread pizza, caprese and wine. My only suggestion is that you rename it a food tour, we were actually expecting wine at more than one place.
Response from Host , Sep 2019
We enjoyed hosting you on our tour! Thank you for the great review and we are so happy you enjoyed the tour! You're right, we are more of a food tour but since we have a wine & a wine country cocktail pairing, we add the "wine" to the title of the tour. Thanks so much for your comments, we appreciate your input! Cheers, Mia

Thought my food tour in Rome was excellent. This one was just as good. The food, wine, venues, and guide were perfect.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
