Wow! Solvang was an amazing surprise getaway and a destination I never knew I would love, love love. This 220 year old authentic Danish town, 30 min northeast of Santa Barbara, overwhelmed me with charm from the Scandinavian architecture of every building, the 100s of shops, wine tasting rooms, restaurants and wow - the authentic Danish bakeries. Solvang sits in the middle of wine country and is surrounded by over 200 wineries that offer another level awe and pastoral beauty - not to mention the delicious wines. My only negative was that I didn’t plan enough time to fully experience all that Solvang and the surrounding towns and wineries had to offer. Next time I plan a minimum of 3-4 days to explore more vineyards and culture that this little know gem has to offer. 5 Stars across the board!!’

A small town transported from Denmark. But crime in the kingdom of LEGO a “PLAYMOBIL” appearance (a shame). With all the markers and (almost) as clean as the "real" ones. And there are not 3 or 4 houses but a large part of the city respects the architecture of the DK. Large choice of shops where Danish products take pride of place. Pretty nice pastries. But it's not free. Out of season we park the car easily in high season and on weekends it is much less safe. For the lazy, it is possible to take the tour in a minibus or even in a horse-drawn carriage (provide a substantial reserve of $ because it is located in the vineyards of Sta Ynez.
