During the walking tour, our talented Fort staff, volunteers and docents will lead you to 5 to 6 rooms where you will learn about the history of Sutter's Fort, and the Fort's interesting connections to chocolate! As you learn about these often unknown pieces of Sutter's Fort history, you'll also have opportunities to sample chocolates, including many locally made products. At the end of the tour, guests will be treated to a slice of chocolate cake and other treats!
