My husband and I did the Napa City Ghosts & Legends Walking Tour last night as a Christmas gift,…read moreand I absolutely loved it. The tour guides (aka very accomplished paranormal investigators) were engaging, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Napa's history and the paranormal. It was the perfect mix of spooky, fun, and fascinating -- we learned so much about downtown Napa along the way. We can't wait to do their Sonoma tour next and to watch the documentaries the tour leads are part of. Highly recommend!

We participated in the Napa Downtown Walk, Ghosts of the Redlight District & Main St. with Devin as…read moreour tour guide. I think he did a pretty good job keeping it casual and interesting. Attendees become paranormal investigators during the tour, given several tools to track paranormal activity (spiritual dowsing rods, and a ghost hunting meter that measures electric signals (as ghosts give off electric signals). We made about 4-5 different stops that are either haunted or have affiliation with death, and Devin helped the group communicate with ghosts during some of the stops, combining storytelling with interesting historical events in Napa. We had a combination of skeptics and believers in our group, including at least one witch. I, of course, came for the entertainment, getting to talk about serial killers, learn a bit about history, and also get in a few laughs as Devin brings the humor as well. I did learn some new things, such as the difference between a ghost and a spirit, possible origins of the terms "lobbying" and "pulling my leg", and that Cole's Chop House (where my bf and I had dinner earlier that day) was formerly a mortuary. We ended at the courthouse, not where we started the tour, with the story of the last public execution in California which took place here in Napa. Overall, we had a fun time, and it's an unconventional way to tour the streets of Napa, and definitely enjoyable if you like ghost stories.

We started with cheese and champagne, two stops with white wine; one with Indian food, the other with a grilled branzino. The last stop included two beautiful reds and two dark chocolates.

She is very knowledgeable and personable. We enjoyed all of our pairings. We had friends in town, who came just for this experience! She mentioned she also does similar tours in Sausalito & Napa. I tried my first food tour at Pike's Place Market, in Seattle. It's a great way to get to know a new foodie town or in this case, get a deeper knowledge and appreciation for a great place closer to home. We especially liked be taken to a tucked away Indian restaurant to try a dish we've never had before. With a paired wine of course!

It reminded me that this review is extremely overdue - he is an absolute gem in his industry! I used to work in video games in San Francisco, and we had a number of vintage arcade games in our lobby. From time to time we needed someone to help fix them (from our employees pounding the crud out of the controllers and such) and Chris was our go-to guy. His knowledge is unmatched. His memory is incredible. He's just the absolute best. If you're thinking of shopping around - don't bother. Call Chris. He's the answer to your (I'm assuming VERY SPECIFIC) problem!

Beyond Compare - Musical Heart Strings Made Our Wedding Truly Magical!…read more Working with Gretchen and Kerry of Musical Heart Strings was one of the best decisions we made for our Tiburon wedding. We immediately wanted to work with them after seeing their website and content, and their live performance did not disappoint. They are truly phenomenal musicians! From our very first outreach, they were full of excitement and so happy to workshop unique ideas with us to make our day as special as possible. They brought two massive highlights to our wedding that our guests are still talking about. First, they were totally open to leading our recessional, playing their instruments while walking as we exited the ceremony, which gave the entire moment a beautifully joyful and light feeling. Second, they collaborated flawlessly with our DJ for a super unique grand entrance to our reception. They played live violin and cello right along with the DJ playing Glenn Miller's "In the Mood" in the background--it was incredibly fun and really got the crowd going! Gretchen and Kerry are consummate professionals whose musical abilities are beyond compare. They set the perfect ambiance and made our day unforgettable.
