Tracy’s Impeccable Food Tour of Ivanhoe Neighborhood - Last year we did a food tour of the Milk District with Tracy. It was fantastic! So we sought her out for another tour this year when we returned to Orlando. She did not disappoint! She picked out 5 “yummy” restaurants in Ivanhoe Village. Our two favorites were a pizza restaurant and another for quiches (the tuna quiche was amazing). I am fussy when it comes to pizza. It was very thin with a hard crust and delicious toppings. What sets Tracy apart from others is the time she takes to prepare the tour. She researches the history of the restaurant and the neighborhood. She is very organized and a sweet person. I don’t know when we will return to Orlando, but we definitely will do another food tour with Tracy when we do. The highest recommendation!!!

Excellent Tour! Highly recommend! - We decided to take this tour on a whim with a friend visiting from Ontario, Canada, and to learn about a new area since moving to Orlando in 2022. We thought Tracy was awesome! So passionate about food and fun and local vendors, and so organized and helpful and kind throughout the whole tour. We experienced a good mix of food and vibes throughout the tour, from local (amazing!) pizza, to venturing to try gator bites, and other great places with great stories, before finishing it all off with an ice cream treat. (so rad!) Special shoutout to Yay! Tiny Shop and Maffrey's, two stores we got to peek in that had really kind owners and really unique items that would make great gifts. 100% would go again, and would recommend to do with family and friends. We left feeling full of tasty food, and had a fun, easy going afternoon with some great food chats! Thanks so much, Tracy :)

Orlando - More than just Disney - We were very pleasantly surprised by this tour of a lovely district of Orlando. Ivanhoe Village is quaint and friendly with some awesome restaurants and bars. We love to take food tours when we visit somewhere new, as we always learn insider information about spots we would never happen upon as tourists. Invariably, we meet like-minded, amazing people. This tour was no exception. Tracy makes you feel welcome while sharing a part of Orlando that she clearly loves. We highly recommend this tour! It was a highlight of our stay in Orlando.

Amazing Food Tour Experience!! - Tracy was an amazing guide! Sampling different foods like the gator bites, freshly made quiches and pizza, deep fried deviled eggs and homemade ice creams, was a one of a kind experience! If you are new to Orlando or if you’ve ventured to Ivanhoe Village, you have to take this tour!!

Don’t miss Wandering Palm Adventures! - We are huge fans of Tracy and her Wandering Palm Adventures! We did our first tour of Orlando’s Hidden Main Street District in March 2023 and enjoyed the Ivanhoe Village tour in August 2023. We’re regular visitors to Florida, but it wasn’t until we did tours with Tracy that we came to appreciate the creative cuisine of Orlando. We love exploring small businesses and Tracy is a true advocate and believer in supporting small business. We’ve met nearly every restaurant owner and learned about their amazing journeys, which has personalized the experience for us in a special way. Tracy has a knack for curating a memorable experience that combines Florida history with incredible flavors (and good size portions!). She’s generous with her time and photos (she sends you pics post tour) and has designed tours that are a good balance of dining and exploring. We definitely plan on returning and sharing with family and friends. These have been great date days for us!

Fantastic food and vibes - Our tour was great. Unfortunately it did rain during our tour so we missed a stop but Tracy was great and made it work that we got other stuff to make up for it. The resturants we visited were fantastic and she did great in accommodating our groups food allergies. Would reccomend.

You won’t leave hungry! - Tracy was fabulous. From answering any pre tour questions, making sure our food allergies were observed and following up with help in parking etc.
