This was my 2nd time going on this tour with Cameron as the guide. Once again, he was terrific and made it very enjoyable.. He gave a great and interesting history of Solvang as we walked around. We went to some if the same places as last year and to several new ones. The food was really good and the portions were bigger than you would expect.i would go on it again.

The tour was just what we were expecting. It was a combination tasty food, iPhone camera tips and tricks, and some local history and geography. Kayla the guide was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and patient. Honored our food preferences since most of the people in our small group did not eat any pork.

We had a fun time touring Solvang and getting to taste different foods. Tour took about 3hrs and our guide was knowledgeable. Also picked up some tips on to photograph food.
