In 1998, the Historical Society was given an opportunity to work in conjunction with the Sacramento County Department Of Park & Recreation to restore and create a "Living History Ranch. This would be on the Mc Farland Ranch , founded by John Mc Farland in 1869. School field trips bring thousands of children every year to learn and participate in daily life on a farm. They would come dressed in costumes( clothing of the period) to learn about the past and to do things as it was done over a century ago. They would learn how to make candles, feed animals, plant and water crops. The Mc Farland house is now a museum. This is only one example of the great work of the "Galt Historical Society". (NEVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE OR WHERE YOU COME FROM) Thanks for reading !

A real community based non-profit organisation who runs a nice youth facility and programs for all ages of school children. Their OLD CAR Show and my favorite SIP N' SNACK at The Mac, wine tasting and local food companies bring the young and old to experience our local businesses and histories. Many local Boy Scout Troops have been invited to volunteer hundreds if not thousands of hours of service helping to build many buildings and structures including to build the entrance sign and fencing, 30+ educational signs describing all the antique farm equipment, the welcome windmill, the pump house and Blacksmith building to name a few. Genie Olsen & Ida Denier have done a wonderful job of making our community a better place to live and leave a legacy of wonderful memories we will never forget!

    California Cavern State Historic Landmark - Inside the cave

    What a cool experience. Got there for the 10:00 am tour, and I was the only guest. The walk to…read morethe cave is only about five minutes, but there's no shade so the earlier the better as the temps heat up. Inside the cave is about 50°. I have no issues with claustrophobia, but if you do there is one tight squeeze that might be a problem. Cash, my tour guide, turned off the lights (after asking my permission) and we experienced total darkness for maybe thirty seconds. It felt like two hours, and I hated it , but still neat and recommend trying if offered. Use the hand rails. They are there for your safety.

    The drive here is much more involved than Mercer Caverns with more windy and narrow roads. Once you…read moreget closer the space opens up to a large parking lot and shop you meet at. We were the only ones that signed up for the earliest tour that day and were lucky to have a private tour. The tour has informative history about the caverns with landmarks along the way. The most interesting thing we didn't know about is they have caving adventure tours where you shimny through holes and narrow spaces with a guide but our kids aren't old enough to partake. This was the first show cave in California and townspeople lived in them during harsh winters in the 1800s. There was a bar inside and a church and nails were even given to people to carve on the walls. Because of this there are signs of harm everywhere with soot, broken formations, and dirty coloration from human hand oils and even champagne poured on a rock formation. The caverns are huge and beautiful with some jaw-dropoing rooms. The walking tour is very safe though we loved the slight danger and claustrophobic feel of the Mercer Caverns. When you leave the shop has some cool historical items pulled from the caves on display like glass bottles, etc .. that are worth checking out.

    Regal Carriage Limousine is First Class Operation! Nicole…read morewas great to work with in booking our event! She made the process easy and was very responsive with all the questions we had. Their Mercedes Sprinter Van Limo is beautiful, in great shape, very comfortable, and lots of FUN !!!! Vik was our driver, he was very professional, personable, and knowledgeable on where to take us! We will be working with them again soon for a brewery tour and any other event or transportation needs !!!

    This review is months overdue, but I have so many glowing things to say about this company!…read more I worked with Nicole and Vik in Summer 2024 to provide shuttle service for my wedding. Our location was scenic and located at the bottom of a mountain, putting a limit on parked cars on site. We needed to direct people to a local park and ride, and hire a shuttle. This requirement was the most complicated logistic we had to coordinate for the wedding, but working with Regal Carriage reduced all of our stress and made planning a breeze! We called all shuttle companies in the region to inquire, and most companies didn't have the resources, interest, or capacity to support what we needed (we needed a pick up window and multiple drop off windows, which spanned most of the day in a rural area). We were so fortunate to find this company. The first person I spoke to was Nicole who was extremely kind, patient, and made the process welcoming. Immediately when we began planning- i recognized how accountable, communicative, and determined Nicole was to make this work for our wedding day. Vik shared his impressive work history and expertise in navigating complicated roads, which brought me relief as I was nervous having a large vehicle travel on the narrow and winding roads to the site. We needed a complex schedule, so Nicole and Vik worked closely and efficiently with me, my husband, and our day of contact to safely and reliably bring ~30 guests to and from our wedding! They thought of everything.. down to planning ahead for how we could get in contact in an area with spotty cell reception. We rented a 14 seater- the vehicle was so clean and immaculate. Our guests complimented how luxurious the whole experience felt, how safely Vik drove them, and how kind, professional, and friendly he was! You can tell this is a family business that prides themselves on great, caring customer service and going above and beyond. In weddings... not everything is going to go right. But the one thing we were able to count on was Regal Carriage :) Please support this awesome business! Pristina + BK

    The ambience here is really great and it is very elegant and it is perfect for a French and lunch…read moreand wine tasting and even an event as well. . Service was really friendly and they were really quick on their feet. They were very accommodating with bringing hot sauce and Juice when we requested it. . The Highlight item that we really like is the Pea Sprout bruchetta which has a grilled sourdough with formage blanc cheese spread. Definitely fresh and different and healthy. . We really like the bubbles it was very refreshing and has a nice touch of Granny apples to the opening of the bubbles. It was not on the sweet side and it was perfect for appearing with lighter dishes that is offered on the menu. . We also enjoy cow's milk Barada which was a very unique dish with Szechuan pepper and a really nice pistachio nuts and honey and the burrata which was very tasty and very complex and goes well with a Malbec red wine. . Overall I will come back and visit this place again with future menus as they do change monthly or whenever the season is in stock with new items. If you're looking for somewhere to have good Bubbles and a brunch they are serving it here and look no further and Lodi. Hope this helps and thanks for reading and have a yelp-tastic day.
