Do this tour!

Published on Feb, 2025

Megan and John were awesome guides. I loved the combination of booze and crime. The stores were engaging and i”very entertaining. It was like an interactive Dateline. I highly recommend this tour and would love to do the ghost tour next time.

A Great Addition to our Girl's Weekend

Published on Feb, 2025

Megan and John were such great guides. They were entertaining and really funny. We laughed, drank and learned a lot about various crimes, as well as some Solvang history. I would highly recommend this tour!

Fabulous murder mystery tour!

Published on Jan, 2025

Wow, what a wonderful surprise this great mystery tour was! Megan was our tour guide and she was just fantastic! Very entertaining and extremely informative. We spent our tour learning about and visiting some very eclectic and super cool places all while being entertained by Megan’s magnificent story telling skills about murder and mayhem that fascinated us while we were plied with several different wines and cool cocktails for sure! Who knew Solvang had the coolest Tiki bar???!!! Megan was outstanding keeping mindful of some tourist mobility issues all the while make sure we each had the best experience! Well worth every cent and then some. Highly recommend!

Great way to start our Christmas Holiday in Solvang!

Published on Dec, 2024

Megan our tour guide for the Solvang Wine and True Crime Tour was absolutely fantastic. Not only was she super upbeat and had all of the good vibes, she was also knowledgeable about all things Solvang. The true crime portion of the tour had the hairs on the back of my neck standing at attention. The bars we went to had a wonderful atmosphere and tasty drinks. This tour was the perfect beginning to our family Christmas holiday in Solvang. Thanks Megan!!

Entertaining and the drinks were good
