Solvang food and wine tour.

You get a personalized tour and history. The guide took his time and didn’t rush through any stop. He felt very proud that he lived in town and that added to the charm of the tour.

Take this tour!!!

Hannah was super friendly and informative. We kinda won the “lottery” and were the only 2 people on the tour which is surprising as as wonderful as the tour is I was surprised that every tour wasn’t sold out! Every place we went was wonderful so much so that after the tour we revisited most of the locations to buy presents and treats to take home. Like I said every place was wonderful but without a doubt our stop at Ingeborg’s Chocolate shop was the highlight!!! The owner Kim gave us a tour showed us how they made the chocolate and then gave us a bunch of delicious chocolate to try. Honestly if the tour had only included Kim and his shop it would have still been a hit! If you are coming to Solvang and are not sure what your plan of attack should be, book this tour it has it all history architecture unknown facts and more food than you can imagine. 10 out of 10

A must for first timers

It was our first time in Solvang, and decided to book this tour for my birthday activity. This tour is perfect if you aren't familiar with the area, or if you don't know where to start (as Solvang does have a lot of shops). You hit all the highlights of Solvang in this tour (& you bypass the long lines -- it's like having a fast pass to all the popular shops). Our guide, Hannah, was lovely. She is very easy to talk to and didn't rush us in any way. We visited so many shops and tasted a bunch of food that my husband & I were so full at the end of our tour.

Operator response

So glad you enjoyed your time with Hannah in Solvang! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. And happy birthday!

Great food and wonderful guides

We had a great experience learning local history and enjoying great food with Cameron and Hannah! Many stops and lots of variety. A very busy Saturday in December but our guides made things effortless. We had vegetarian options that were delicious. The chocolate store was amazing!

The ONLY way to do Solvang!

Our Solvang tour with Cameron was an experience of a lifetime. And no this is not an exaggeration. From seeing pictures of this magical town of Solvang online, photographs, and through other people's experiences, I got to experience the city this past weekend. The town itself has such great, healing, and positive energy. There are so many restaurants, brewhouses, and wine tastings everywhere. Without the guidance of Eat This Shoot That!, we would have been completely lost. Cameron had such an organized itinerary for us throughout the evening. It was such an amazing, special feeling to have all these restaurants know we were on the tour, immediately get seated, and get food and drinks in front of us within 5 minutes of entering the restaurant. Every place we visited had such great respect for Cameron. Cameron took us to many sites throughout the town, that's enriched with so much history. We would not have learned as much as we did about the city of Solvang without the expertise and guidance of Cameron. I am forever grateful to this company, especially Cameron, and will be booking another tour in December to experience this all over again. Thank you so much!

Operator response

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are so glad you enjoyed your time in Solvang with Cameron and we're thrilled you fell in love with our little town. Excited to have you as our guest again in December!
