Take a guided stroll through the river's edge and vibrant downtown neighborhoods. Experience a retro rewind into Petaluma’s past—where historic sights come to life and fascinating stories unfold at every stop.
Wear comfortable shoes and sun protection, bring water, and stay hydrated. The tour lasts about 90 minutes, 1.5 miles, moderately paced, and we provide the View Masters.

View Master tours got a glowing review in Frances Rivetti’s recent Substack article:
“The couple spent months masterminding and custom making this quirky, fun and innovative tour, bringing historic sights and buildings of interest to life through fascinating stories and captivating vintage images which they curated and turned into View Master slides. I love chatting with Sherri and Leif and their fellow Petalumans of Yesteryear... This terrific, local non-profit has enlivened over 70 events in the Petaluma area in the past year.
And so it was extra fun to join an enthusiastic group of 10, led by this versatile couple, currently donning cheerful, mid-century tour-guide garb, as they invited us to discover the charm, the characters, and the moments that shaped Petaluma afresh."
