Great fun and Worth Doing - The tour was fantastic. The guide and wineries provided knowledge we wouldn't have known without the tours. The appointments for the 3 wineries and tea shop were all setup so all we had to do was show up. Our guide got us food from the local restaurants that paired great with the wine selections.

Must do - Awesome unique experience with a great experienced tour guide to elevate the tasting and history of city. I probably would not have found these gems on my own. Book direct and support a small local businesd

Great wine and food pairings in beautiful setting - We had a wonderful time with our guide Denee! All the places we went to were great, but Williamson was the best. The food and wine pairing there was fantastic. We also loved that one of our stops was at the tea shop. A delightful surprise. Can't recommend this tour enough.

Perfect First Time Visitor's Experience - Excellent tour from start to finish! I've been on dozens of trip advisor tours and this ranks as one of my favorites. Our guide was knowledgeable, fun, and easy going. It's well worth the price given the experiences, food, drinks and time around town. 10/10!

A perfect day in Healdsburg - In early April 2024, my husband and I lucked out with the most gorgeous day in Healdsburg. It was just the two of us on this tour, hanging out with our guide, Greg. He met us at Healdsburg Square, gave us a quick rundown of Healdsburg history, and then informed us of today’s itinerary: three wineries (Williamson Wines, Spicy Vines, and G&C Lurton Vineyard Tasting Room) with a stop at the Russian River Tea Company in between.
Each spot was so different. At Williamson Wines, we kicked things off with Tony, who hooked us up with some wonderful wine-and-cheese pairings. Then we popped by the Tea Shop, run by Holly. We tried a few wonderful teas and nibbled on some treats. Spicy Vines was a whole different scene, more relaxed. Here we met Declan, the owner's son, and had wine tastings, along with some chicken and coleslaw. Last but not least, was G&C Lurton, where we met Pascal and his apprentice, Victor, sipping on French-style wines paired well with three different meats. We so enjoyed chatting with Pascal. G&C Lurton's ACAIBO wine was an absolute winner! This was definitely our #1 choice of all the wines we tasted.
What held this tour together so well was Greg. He was chill as can be, making the whole tour a blast. We couldn't have asked for a better day.

Excellent experience! - We had a great time with Denée. She provided us with some excellent places to visit and enjoy food pairings with wine and tea. Needless to say, we ended up buying food items and wine and went back the next day with our friends and bought more wine and jams. Well done!

Fab Day in Headsburg - Carol was a great host and took us as promised to great wine tasting and a little tea. The food came from the winery ( cheese) or from a few of the local restaurants. It was a great day, easy to walk and drank some beautiful wine! Highly recommend.
