Fantastic Afternoon In Chester - This is our third tour with Gareth’s team, previously doing Liverpool and Shrewsbury. The food in Chester was the best yet and we’re left feeling full. Malc, our guide was a fantastic host and we can’t wait to do another. I highly recommend doing any of their tours.

A delicious way to explore Chester - I really enjoyed Gareth's Chester food and drink tour. We spent a wonderful evening seeing some of Chester's beautiful sights and learning lots about it's history too. All the food venues we visited were fantastic. It was a lovely way to spend an evening and great to do something really different. I'd highly recommend this tour and thanks for a great evening.

Fantastic Chester walking food /drink tour - 100% recommend. Having done the Liverpool tours , we booked Chester with friends. A wide variety of tastings & unique venues coupled with Gareth's excellent hosting skills with local insights & intel. Loved it.

A great way to experience history and great food - A great way to taste the very best of Chester. Our host Gareth was excellent—his knowledge of the city’s Roman and medieval history is as good as the food and drink we had during the tour. We were in a tour group of four, and visited a selection of outstanding local independents, no chains or high street names. No spoilers, but you’ll visit hidden gems you’d likely walk right past on your own. It’s a brilliant way to support local businesses while getting a deep dive into Chester’s heritage.

Fantastic afternoon, enjoy! - If you're visiting Chester, absolutely don't miss this tour! Gareth was a world class guide, entertaining and informative, and made us feel so very very welcome. After excellent pre-tour communication, the afternoon lived up to our hopes. Wonderful food, plenty to eat, so much fascinating history and photo stops, and the highlight of an already fantastic day was the wine stop. This tour was the equal of (the many) food tours we've done around the world. Do yourself a favour, book this trip. And Gareth, we were entertained! Cheers from NZ.

Fantastic experience - Me and my partner went on the Chester History and Beer tour on Saturday. We cannot recommend this experience highly enough! We had Gareth as our guide. He was fantastic. Chatty, interesting and so friendly. We have lived in Chester for many years and learnt so much fascinating history on our walk round. We finished off in the Pied Bull with some delicious beer. Thoroughly enjoyable morning. We would definitely look at doing another tour in another city.

Wonderful Experience - We had an amazing time on Gareth’s tour of the city. Each food stop was unique and catered to our tastes. The attention to detail and the warmth of the business owners at each stop was unlike any food tour we have been on before. Highly recommend.
