This was probably one of our favorite gift shops in Napa…read more While the items were slightly on the touristy side, the vibe was welcoming and the gift areas were clean and well maintained. Most of the selection was about mid to high level quality with reasonable pricing, and they had quite a few fun maps and other large-scale decorations as part of the welcome center which were fun to see. All in all, the service was friendly and it was nice to walk around in, so if you're visiting the area I'd definitely drop in.

My wife and I stopped in here on our first trip to Lodi. We were helped tremendously by Nicole. We…read morewere looking for some suggestions on wineries, and where some good places were. She was sure to confirm what kinds of wine we liked, what kind of places we were into (large scale winery grounds vs more intimate tasting rooms), proximity of wineries to each other so that we didn't spend our whole time traveling from one to another, and could maximize our actual tasting time. Her input and suggestions were invaluable and truly made a difference in our trip. If you're new to the area, or just stopping through... just stop in to see what you COULD be missing. My wife and I learned that there are numerous events here throughout the year, and you may unknowingly miss out. SO happy we stopped in. Thanks again, Nicole!!

THIS EXHIBIT IS NOT OPEN ANYMORE. POP UP MUSEUM - MUSIC THROUGH THE DECADES…read more This sounded like a lot of fun and the website listed it as open, so I drove a pretty long ways to see it. When I arrived, it was closed with a sign that said, "To ask the Visit Concord office what has happened." They responded that, "Oh, we closed it last Friday." As we left unhappily, someone randomly said, "You can buy an apple."

They…read moreprovide great information where to go and incidentally, I found the San Joaquin Bike Coalition through their site. I also learned that Stockton has a whole world that I never knew existed. For instance.... --Being a bike lover, the Amgen Tour goes right through Stockton (Woot-woot) --There are a ton of events happening every month. In fact, the "Beerfest" is just around the corner on August 10, 2019. --Stockton have an amazing Museum as well as a kids museum. --There is the Bob Hope Theater (I still have yet to see so it's on my calendar) --Port of Stockton is nice with some very cool sailboats. The Stockton Arena is also a must see. --The Banner Island Ballpark I think is pretty cool. --The University of the Pacific which I've ridden my bike there and it's like cycling through an Ivy League college. This is also a cool place to walk your dogs especially during the weekend because of tons of plush, green grass. --Stockton also has tons of great parks and I've cycled through Oakgrove which was very nice (minus geese poop) LOL --Stockton also has a few local wineries as well as its neighboring City of Lodi. --My favorite probably Lincoln Center as I like to eat and buy food. There is even a nice outdoor plush seating area with umbrella shade. Very trendy. Did you know Stockton has "Nothin Bundt" too and Peet's coffee is right across the street? Empresso Coffee however, have been my goto hangout because they have the best cold brew coffee. It's legit! Trust me, I'm a coffee connoisseur. Best of all - Stockton actually, yes actually, has a ton of great restaurants with all flavors. My favorite I discovered is Moma's Pho right off Lower Sacramento and off Thorton/Pacific Ave. Great hole-in-the-wall Vietnamese restaurant. Order their Spicy soup. It's delicious! Oh before I forget.... I attended their annual "StockMarket" event and had a blast. I met emerging local artists, bought some one of a kind arts, and I got a chance to listen to some cool music from local bands. In fact, I even rode my bike there many thanks to the San Joaquin Bike Coalition volunteers, who provided the "Family Fun Ride Day." We had more than 40 riders that day. Lastly, I bought a cool "VisitStockton" T-shirt and I was told that United Airlines will be flying into Stockton Airport soon. United would provide flights from Stockton direct to LAX and Phoenix. Currently, Allegiant Airlines is the only commercial carrier flying out of Stockton to Las Vegas or San Diego. There are however, private jets and smaller planes you can RSVP. So the next time you drive through Stockton, checkout "VisitStockton.org" first and discover the many cool places to go. Oh did I mention that Stockton has a Mercedes Benz dealer? It's located in the Trinity Plaza right off Eight Mile Road. Cheers!

October 4, 2025…read more Update of any comments I ever written, try one thousand four hundred one'. The people that work here, that volunteer here, are just so great. While some reason in our Capitol Town of Sacra they no longer print those Visitor Guide magazines, they at Old Town Visitor Center are otherwise helpful! Very last Visitor Guide magazines for Sacra that I have is Autumn/Winter 2023! Yes I keep it kept current at time current editions! The people here will help the Guests with maps, brochures, questions of Old Town Sacra of where to eat, what to do, places in Old Town Sacra of where to explore. One warning and is definitely not fault of Old Town Visitor Center, if the Guest is disabled, he may not be able to eat at many of the Old Town Sacra restaurants! The I Shanghai, sure it has authentic food, but way I have seen, there are stairs without any handrails! How can the disabled Guest then get down to the I Shanghai to eat say if he uses a wheelchair, a walker, may be in a Medical Boot, if he has a limp, as say stairs but I have not seen any elevators! One lady one my stays in Sacra, she had called this I Shanghai restaurant, they tell her no there are not elevators! They do not even deliver, she was willing to have them deliver to me at their Visitor Center then I can eat it outside, there are benches throughout Old Sacra, but they tell her they do not deliver! False advertisement maybe, when I had once look up their restaurant, it says Yes Delivery or something to that wording! My previous of this Old Town Visitor Center has twenty eight USEFUL, FUNNY, COOL votes!

I visited Old Star Visitor Center with my girlfriend on Valentines Day and unfortunately had a very…read moreuncomfortable experience. When we walked in, we were not greeted. An older white male employee immediately turned around and began watching the security cameras. We were the only customers in the store, yet he did not ask if we need any help or assistance. As a black customer, the situation felt unsettling. We came in with no bags and were simply browsing, but the atmosphere made us feel unwelcome and watched. When we decided to leave, the employee still did not acknowledge us or say anything. The entire interaction felt odd and uninviting, and we left feeling as though we were not wanted there because of our race. I hope management addresses customer service and ensures that all guests are treated with respect and courtesy.

It has been well over 11 years since my initial visit to Jelly Belly Factory and my how things have…read morechanged. Those days of free admission are long gone, costs have increased, and there is now a Jelly Belly Museum to enjoy. While one visit was more than enough to satisfy my own curiosities, I have since had my own little monster whom at one point was overly in love with these tiny fruity beans. What better way to walk down memory lane than seeing it through the eyes of my very own 6yo?? TOUR ADMISSION PRICES: Adults (Ages 18+): $8 Children (Ages 3-17): $4 Children (Ages 2 and under): Free The tour is self guided, allowing you to go at your own pace in learning about the process of making the jelly beans. FUN FACT: DID YOU KNOW IT TAKES 7-14 DAYS TO MAKE A JELLY BELLY JELLY BEANS?? Now, before you get started, there are a few rules that visitors must abide by. 1) Keep your jelly belly hat on at ALL TIMES. I kid you not, the staff will stop and remind you to put it on. 2) Avoid eating and drinking during the tour. 3) Avoid any flash photography. I'm sure this specific rule applies more to the candy actually being in production. My visits have only occurred on the weekends and Jelly Belly only actively produces during the weekday during early hours. Yep, I've never had the pleasure of seeing anything made firsthand but I guess Food Network's UNWRAPPED will have to do... 5/5 Stars because my toddler had the most amazing time. Lunch was extra memorable & cutesy due to the jelly bean shaped foods. Way to stick with the theme!!

Update: Still 5 stars! Since I've now been there numerous…read moretimes, I skip the tour and cafe, but I always always go to the store, especially the room of discounted items, like new flavors they're trying out that aren't in the branding bags yet or seasonal products. It's sooo worth it to get a bag of my favorite jelly beans for $2.00 or sometimes a specialty item for even $0.50! So fun. I've discovered some new favorites this way. FYI: They are currently remodeling the discount room, which is located on the side where the cafe is, but it is temporarily behind the stairs on the side of the store. Look out for it because it is worth it! There are also little "train rides" in the parking lot, but the schedule is sporadic. The jelly bean art work is still really cool to look at each time I'm there. They sometimes rotate what they display, which is cool. Currently they have Harry Potter jelly beans artwork displayed in the entryway. They've also gotten rid of the free taste tests, which used to be right when you enter. Bummer. That was really fun to taste the bamboozle flavors, like stinky feet or vomit. Haha
