In
2006, we took a Chocolate Walk with Healdsburg Walking Tours.
We enjoyed it so much that even though it was Barrel Tasting
Weekend 2008, we chose to take the Gourmet Wine
and Food Tasting Tour instead, so that we could introduce our
friends to Darla's wonderful walking tours of Healdsburg.
We plan to return to Healdsburg in 2010, and take our 3rd
walking tour with Darla at that time.

Our walking
tour was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip to wine country!
You were so lovely to personalize the walk for us so that we not only
had lots of taste treats and a peak at some fabulous out of the way
shops but also a good overview of the history of beautiful Healdsburg.
No wonder you love your hometown.

The last time
we stayed in Healdsburg, we frittered away a lot of time
just looking around the town. This time, we decided to take several
tours . . .
so that the next time we return we know where we want to go and what
we want to see.

We
really enjoyed the tour, especially because it was so interactive.
It wasn't just the tour guide talking the whole time.
We also loved tasting so many different foods and wines along the way.

I wish we
had known about this walking
tour before we
arrived in Healdsburg. When we first arrived, we wasted a lot
of time wandering around town trying to decide what to do
and where to eat. So this tour has really helped. – D.G

Thank you for being so flexible. We learned a lot about what
your town has to offer in a short amount of time.– C.W.
Your walking
tour was very interesting. Thank you!
– Munich, Germany
This is a wonderful walking
tour. We went to see the redwoods and
the ocean right after the tour ended, but we came back the next day
to shop at the stores
where you had taken us . . . and everyone
remembered us , which made it even nicer.

Thanks again for the great group
walking tour thru the heart of Healdsburg! We loved

for showing us such a great time on our walking

fortunate to be able to take this walking

To say that I didn't want to go on the Sampler Walk is being polite.
But my wife insisted that the kids would have more fun if I went along,
so I finally caved in although I wasn't expecting to enjoy myself
at all. Now, after finishing your walking
tour, I think our family will go on
walking tours whenever we visit someplace new.
