Amazing walking food tour in DTLA - This DTLA food tour was just amazing! Our guide, Chris, did an amazing job walking us through the history and culture of LA while tasting some of the best food we had on our trip. It was nice to try so many different types of cuisine and to get a local's perspective on not only food history, but also the art and culture of the area. Chris gave us a lot of nice tips for the rest of our road trip as well with suggestions for things to check out right in the neighbourhood of our food tour. So glad we were able to do this tour with him.

Tasty Time in DTLA - I highly recommend this food tour. Our guide Scarlet was knowledgeable about DTLA and had great stops along the way. She is considerate, friendly and patient. The food choices are outstanding and portions are great as you sample and fill up by the end of the tour. It’s worth the time and experience.

Fun food walking tour while learning DTLA history - I was staying in DTLA with my husband who was attending a conference. I had a day to myself, so I booked this tour and am so happy that I did! Our guide, Chris, was wonderful. His energy, humor, and knowledge of CA history/art/architecture really added to the experience of walking through downtown while we had the various tastings. Wear comfortable walking shoes.

A great girls day out - My girlfriends and I went to celebrate a birthday, and we had SO MUCH fun! Our tour guide, Chris, was knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. We learned so much about the city we had never known before...and we had delicious food to boot! We'll definitely be going back to some of the restaurants, and we're already planning our next food tour for Venice Beach 😄
