If you're a foodie then this foodie tour is for you. We…read moreactually had originally done this Napa tour back in 2015. My wife was adamant in wanting to do the Sonoma foodie tour since she had never been in Sonoma before. Sherry kept in constant contact with my wife by email & text as she was our same tour guide back then. In fact she called her the day before & expressed concern of establishments not fully opened due to covid. So she managed to persuade my wife to do the foodie tour in Napa again instead. Maybe bc my wife told her she was wearing a long dress. Yup that did it! Sherry had started us at the infamous Oxbow public market with taking pics of the 4 of us in front. Yes that was a plus bc how often do you vacation & you do a quick selfie of everywhere you go? Ugh...all the time! LOL Sherry was informative, personable & quite the leader for our tour. She was sensitive to our needs & we totally enjoyed our six different stops walking leisurely from Oxbow market to throughout downtown Napa & back to the market. We had even walked by their farmers market which was on a Tuesday but unfortunately they were in the process of closing up since it was already noon. Our tour was a full three hours & we were totally satiated. What was quite enjoyable was we were with another couple whom we already knew in advance. Supposedly there was supposed to be 6 of us but that third couple mistakenly came the day before. Haha my wife said it was bc the Mercury was in retrograde! This foodie tour was ultimately like our own private tour! Yay! It was also to celebrate my wife's birthday. She had the time of her life. Thank you Sherry! Hope to go on your foodie tour in Sonoma one day soon! Book your next foodie tour here in Napa with Sherry! I highly recommend her. Remember to support these small local businesses & don't forget to tip!

I loved how much communication you got about the experience beforehand via email. Definitely read those emails as you will know where to park, etc. Each restaurant had a different feel/vibe and totally different food. That really helped us to experience all that the downtown area had to offer. In some places, the owner or proprietor would come out and give a short spiel. In others, we were left to enjoy the company of our newly-made friends. Although I didn't have any food restrictions, Rooted Fork does honor them and we had 4 people on our tour who did have certain restrictions, including 2 vegetarians. Unfortunately it seemed that some of the restaurants didn't understand. In one place, the 2 vegetarians were served heaping plates of fish. The funny thing is that's not what everyone else was served so this means they prepared these fish dishes specifically for people who do not eat fish. Thankfully, once explained to the servers a few times over, they brought out alternate dishes for these folks. If you are new to the area, this is a really fun way to get the lay of the land and figure out where you might want to have dinner.

I liked that we went from beginning to end for a full meal. This is definitely a tour I would recommend for anyone coming to visit. What is there not to love about food, wine and good facts!

I have visited family in Sonoma for 20+ years, but I learned more about Sonoma and dining options around Sonoma Square on Mia's tour than I ever knew before. We tried cheeses, sausages, Mexican food, olive oil, balsamic vinegars, chocolate, and more as we visited various businesses around and near the Square. Plus, we got a history lesson along the way too! My friends and I had planned to go on this tour in 2020, but Covid shut everything down. I am so happy that the tour is back up and running, so be sure to book your spots now before it fills up. FYI- Covid protocols are in place on this tour, so bring a mask. I would highly recommend this tour if you're a first-time, or even a regular visitor, to the area. As someone who doesn't drink, don't let that stop you! I was pleased to be offered other tasty beverage options on the tour too. Mia is a fantastic guide who is full of pep, knowledge, and great insight into things to taste and see in Sonoma. I will definitely be back!

When you keep coming back, you know you've found something special. Owner Gale has built a truly exceptional operation. The equipment is always in great condition, the booking process is smooth, and the overall experience feels well thought-out from start to finish. It's clear she genuinely cares about her guests and takes pride in what she's created. Our guide James was fantastic: knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and great at making the tour both educational and entertaining. He shared fascinating details about the wetlands ecosystem, local wildlife, and the history of the area, all while keeping the energy light and fun. The wetlands setting itself is breathtaking: a peaceful, scenic route that feels completely different from the usual Napa wine country experience. It's a perfect outing for families, couples, or anyone looking to explore the area in a unique and memorable way.

The tour guides are ran by a mother and son. We had the son, James. He took us to 4-5 different places known by locals and let me tell you, lines were out the door for these places. We tried one thing off the menu that was chosen by the tour guides. I was skeptical because I'm picky when it comes to food but everything was so good. The segways were so fun too. Definitely would do it again.

We the weather being so unpredictable we had to wait. I was fine with wait because i do value my life. I had the chance to cross off a major item from my bucket list. A hot air balloon ride and wow, what an experience! The views were absolutely breathtaking. Floating high above the landscape, seeing everything from a completely new perspective, was truly magical. The sunrise was especially beautiful as we drifted along, and the silence up there, broken only by the loud occasional burst of the burner, was unlike anything I've ever experienced. That said, there were a few things to consider. The heat from the burner can be overwhelming, especially if you're not prepared for it. I didn't wear a hat, and I really wish I had and i am short 5'2 those blasts of hot air can get pretty intense when they hit you directly! So, if you're planning this trip, definitely bring something to cover your head. The landing was a bit of a wild ride, too. The ground was much harder and more uneven than I expected, and we didn't quite know where we'd land until we were almost on top of it. Also getting in and out can be extremely challenging. It's hard climbing into and out of the basket and it's very tightly packed. Not a lot of space to move. I knew the risks going in but the whole experience was so worth it. Even with those little surprises, it was absolutely incredible. Would I do it again? Definitely not! Despite the heat and the bumpy landing, the beauty of the experience makes it all worthwhile and a one timer for me. I highly recommend it if you're looking for something unique and unforgettable to add to your list of adventures. Just don't forget your hat!

Each cart is called by number and you get in a line before boarding. Before boarding they also take your picture which you can purchase at the end of the tour.

You are seated throughout the tour and have small breaks to get up and walk around. Truly a wonderful experience but be prepared to sit for long hours. Staff were beyond great and made the experience even better!

I purchased the Legacy Experience. Overall, 2.5/5 stars…read moreTrain 3/5, fun experience, but not a necessary way to enjoy all Napa has to offer. The rail follows alongside the highway so views were not necessarily 'outstanding' because I was on the train. I do not need to ride this train to see these views. I did not have to drive, that brings the rating up, but there are MANY ways to not drive in Napa. It was a little rickety, but acceptable. The food, 2/5 stars, substandard for the cost. Portions were small (half a piece of bacon, 1 small egg for a Benedict, etc.) and taste was middle of the road. The service/staff 4/5. Most everyone was very hospitable and did their job well. However, it did feel as if we were 'just another group'. Everything is very script and not especially personalized. For example, I'm on a wine train and no one asked my wine preference. Which brings me to the wine we tasted on the train 1/5. I expected a higher quality of tastings. In addition, offer a choice of flight, white or red or a mix of both. Or, hear me out...offer wine pairings for each course (included with my ticket, not for extra cost). Stopping at the sign and enjoying the tasting in the open car was a wonderful choice, wine selection is greatly lacking and to be honest, a great disappointment. Overall, I enjoyed my time, but this was not necessarily due to being on the Napa train specifically, it was because I was on vacation in Napa. I could see the business cutting costs in almost every aspect and that is unfair because I am paying a premium cost of approx. $100/h. And for some of that time, I'm at the winery and not even on the train. Which brings me to the end of my rating, for the stops 2.9/5. The stops felt rushed, especially our first stop. They are about an hour each, but this includes disembark and reembark times. I wanted a little more time at each winery to make a purchase or walk the grounds. I will not be recommending this particular experience, I believe many improvements can be made. Lastly, I booked this experience due to several social media content creators experience. These creators are getting their experiences paid for. Be sure to read ratings from those of us not being sponsored.

We were the last group there, and the two gentlemen working that day went above and beyond. They stayed an hour after closing while my daughter and I waited for a tow truck to unlock my vehicle. They even offered to let me use their own AAA membership to help with the situation. Not once did either of them seem frustrated or inconvenienced, despite having to stay well past closing. Their patience, generosity, and genuine care meant so much to us. Thank you both for turning a stressful situation into a positive experience. We truly appreciate everything you did and highly recommend this rail bike adventure!
