It was quite cold at first then quite hot upstairs. Bring a light a light jacket just in case. The video in the room is hilarious. They have stairs you need to climb or an elevator if you need it. The restroom is clean. You will be standing and walking the entire time. I would love it if they had more interactivity or at least something to hold and interact with. Props or something. The presenter (Allie) was very professional, helpful, and insightful.

What makes this place unique is it truly speaks to the pride of being in Orange and Orange County. It is all locally made amazing products. Also the energy when you walk in is so warm and welcoming. This was truly a gem to stumble across when I was walking around the circle. I can't wait to return to this wonderful place! Now parking around the circle can always be fun, especially since they will start charging for parking soon. A couple blocks away there is a large parking garage and actually directly behind this place is a large lot as well. They do have a back door that you can enter from as well. Truly this store is amazing and I hope they keep succeeding! Support your local businesses by visiting this gem of a location!

I recently used their services for a corporate team outing, and the experience was phenomenal.

We…read morefigured this would be a good way to see DTLA, try a variety of tasty food, and learn a bit of history while we were at it. Check, check, and another big check! Our tour guide, Scarlet, was awesome. A local Angeleno, it was clear she really knows her stuff. She shared a ton of history with us, about downtown and Los Angeles in general. My favorite morsel was when the city was removing a bunch of trees from Pershing Square, Walt Disney took a bunch of them off the city's hands and used them for the Jungle Cruise! We started with an almond croissant from Pitchoun, then got pork belly skewers from Sari Sari Store at Grand Central Market, then we were on to Maccheroni Republic for some pumpkin ravioli, then tacos at Guisados, and finally donuts at Donut Friend. We walked 2 miles total, and enjoyed every step and every bite. Highly recommend!!

Our company scheduled the Venice Food Tour as a group bonding activity on our company retreat. We…read morewere told the tour would go on rain or shine, and sure enough, it was raining. Totally not the guide's fault, but there was a bit of huddling under awnings and leaping over puddles throughout the evening. Also, there were times we wished that the guides waited to tell stories when we were inside, instead of standing in the weather. We were a big group and they split us into two - we started in different places and met up halfway through. Several members of our group had food allergies. The best part of the evening was the diligence our guide took making sure he accommodated the special diet needs, including some bizarre allergies. There were no slip ups or mix ups, and there was a couple of things everyone could eat at each place. The stories we did hear were very interesting, although it was really limited to a couple of anecdotes here and there. There was more socializing and sampling than touring and learning the area's culinary history, which was fine. We felt like the delivery could have been more engaging and the tour more interactive but overall it was really enjoyable. Good variety of different restaurants, and this was one of the only tours we could find that could do an evening slot instead of just daytime. Food was pre-ordered, and all the choices were really good. A great way to learn about the area and try a lot of different things, while spending quality time with groupmates.

How am I just finding out about this Farmers Market!?…read more The Orange Farmers Market was loaded with friendly vendors, fresh organic produce, pasture raised meats and poultry, fresh flowers, freshly baked cookies, hpastas, and so much more!! Taking place every Saturday, this is a must do if you are a local, or even just visiting the area. It's located near downtown Orange, but not right in the heart of it so parking is not as difficult. (Just be mindful of permit parking streets and college permit parking lots). It's also located near the college so you can see some of the beautiful buildings that Chapman has to offer. Plan to spend 30-60 minutes here, the earlier the better! Hours are from 9:00am- 1:00pm

At least two Viator representatives have called and sent email messages to try to get my tour confirmed, but they've not gotten a response. I also sent a message to the tour company asking that they respond to my pending tour request, but no response. I have given this tour company one star for poor customer service.

My friend chose Best Coast Tours for her wine tasting birthday celebration in Temecula this weekend…read moreand we all had a great time! Our driver/tour guide, Joseph, was awesome. He was so friendly, accommodating, and very knowledgeable... and he let us pick the music (extra points)! We were a group of 9 and did the South OC pickup from San Juan Capistrano. The shuttle van fits a total of 14, so we were joined by another couple and pair of sisters, who thankfully, were really cool people, so it wasn't awkward at all. The shuttle van was very comfortable and Joseph provided waters and snacks, but you can also bring your own if you like. We visited 4 wineries in total, tastings and winery tours were included in the ticket price, and most wineries offer a 10-25% discount on bottle purchases through Best Coast Tours as well. You can even order your lunch in advance, not included in the ticket price, to be delivered during your lunch stop on the tour. We chose that option and enjoyed our lunch seated at a table on the grass listening to live music. Everything was so convenient and we really got lucky with the beautiful weather. Overall it was a great experience, I would definitely recommend Best Coast Tours to anyone from SoCal looking to spend a day out in Temecula without any of the stress of planning and coordinating. The ticket price is very reasonable considering everything that's included. Don't hesitate!

Our next step was Lorimar winery, we enjoyed wine, live music, the outdoor patio was packed with people having a great time. The air was chilly, but they had heaters for comfort. They served a buffet meal which was quite delicious and generous! Our server at Lorimar made herself available for anything we needed. Eddie, our driver even fetched our sweaters when we needed them. This was event first class, fun, and no hassle. We all had a great time! The only challenge, which is typical at public events, long bathroom line for the women at Lorimar. This place was rockin' and with music and dancing!
