Great food tour and great guide. Kayla was knowledgeable. The only thing I would add is that it would be better if you are 21+. There was a lot of wine tasting which I loved but I was with a family member who was less than 21.

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review, Jennifer! So glad you enjoyed our Solvang Food Tour with Kayla. And thanks for the feedback! We try to provide a pairing or alternative tasting with the wine, but will keep this in mind as we plan for future tours.
