Testimonial from California State Parks Group

Mark Twain lectured to 65 of our members at a meeting of the Sonoma/ Petaluma State Historic Park Association. Amazingly entertaining, informative and hilarious, it was like the REAL Mark Twain was there!

Testimonial from a Travel Writer

George,

Thoroughly enjoyed your tour! Who was it they used to call "the hardest working man in show business?" I think it was somebody like Ed Sullivan...? But anyway, I think you've inherited that mantle. Also, as one who has spent considerable time doing serious archival research for my books, I was really impressed with the level of your knowledge. You're going way, way beyond playing a role. You'll definitely make it into my "weekend in Sonoma" article.

Mark Twain Walking Tour of Napa and Sonoma

My dear readers, I've returned to relive my adventures in the West!

You may not know that I’m a Westerner, but I am! Came out here in 1861 and didn’t go back to the East until 1866! Now some feller named George Webber has hired me to lead a Walkin’ Tour of Napa and Sonoma, and it’s goin’ to be a whole lot of fun!

In this hour and a half walkin' tour, you will see Historic buildings, journey down mysterious alleyways, and explore Historic Napa or Sonoma. You will hear tales of gold and silver mining, newspaper days in San Francisco and Napa, and the story of my life out in the West.

Hour and a half Historic Re-Enactment walking tours of Napa or Sonoma are $300. Maximum size group is 25.

The Mark Twain Walking tour is a part of the Sonoma Plaza History/Food/Wine Experience. Reservations required, limited availability. Click here for more info:

Testimonial from a School Group

Howdy George!

You were tremendous yesterday! The kids said it was the best day ever! Mrs. T thought you were perfect. And Justin wants to adopt you! I can tell you the kids have never had an experience like that and they will never forget you. You have really turned them on to California History.

I can not begin to thank you enough. I hope it was exciting for you as it was for our third graders. We have some great kids here who needed that exposure and you gave it to them.

Expect some letters soon!

Sincere thank you!

Sam loves kids and kids love Sam:

Learning was never so much fun, with Mark Twain himself telling stories of the gold rush, mining for silver, and tales from his amazing life. E-mail Mr. Twain beforehand with topics you would like discussed.
