Great restaurant selections. Very good course selections: charcuterie w/ bubbly, unique clam chowder w rosé, gnudi w/ scarpetta, bread pudding w/ white port. Best food quality I’ve ever had on a food tour. Very informative and personable guide. Moderate flat walking in scenic location.

This review should be read in full since there are both pros and cons. Pros - 1. Viv was our tour guide and she was amazing! So incredibly personable and knowledgeable of all things food, wine, and the area! 2. The food was absolutely incredible, I actually went back to one of the restaurants after the tour because I was craving the one dish so much but the service was terrible (but not for the tour). 3. The wine and scenery were also amazing! Cons - Left hungry - see We knew another couple that eats about the same amount as we do and they left very full (different tour). I am not sure why but we were not full at all. I think this tour was arranged especially for us since the one we originally scheduled was cancelled. First place we each got a glass of sparkling wine and a cheese board to split. I am sure the cheeses were expensive and they were delicious - just not a lot of food. Second place only one glass of wine was ordered and that was split between my husband and I. We had the most incredible clam chowder that I ever had (that is what we went back for) and we each got a normal serving. Third place again - one serving of wine split between the two of us and one entre split between us and an order of flat bread split. Forth and final - again split the port wine, split a dessert. We figured out that that the company made $255 after food, wine and tip. I understand it is a business - again - we thoroughly enjoyed it, just would have liked a little more food and wine. Our tour guide was so incredibly sweet and gave us so much helpful advise...Hope this helps. Forgot to take a picture of the cheese board.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. This is the first time since 2016 that I am hearing not enough food though. We are very clear in our marketing that everyone receives a half a glass of wine at each four stops. We buy the food like normal customers, pay tax and 20% tip. I can promise you we do not make $255, if only. As a matter of fact, we loose money on two people tours, but I did not want to cancel since you had already been moved. It seems like overall you had a good experience, and for that Viv and I are both happy!

This tour was really enjoyable. Viv, the tour guide, was the highlight of our day. She was like a walking Wikipedia and knew everything about everything. Just spending the day with her was fun all on its own. The food was great and the wine was superb. We also had a great time hanging out with the other couple on our tour. This has been my 10th food tour or so, and it ranks as one of the best. You don't want to miss it!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sharing that outstanding ranking of our Yountville experience. We love showcasing our amazing restaurants in Sausalito that keep their top standing with locals and guest alike. Viv IS so fun too! We hope you will try us out in Sonoma, Napa or Yountville next time. Safe travels!
