Food Tour - Absolutely terrific! The guide made the tour worth way more than the price! Her comedy was definitely worth part of the tour! If you are in Savannah Ga, make this a must do part of your visit!

Savannah Southern Fried Expectations Walking Food Tour, a must! - If you are looking for a great food tour with great hosts, you need to try Savannah Southern Fried Expectations Walking Food Tour. Not only was all the food spectacular but the tour itself was great. I'm doing this review a little late so unfortunately, I do not remember the ladies' names. They were very knowledgeable and accented each other well. If you're wondering about the walk, it wasn't bad at all. My husband is NOT a walker, and he did fine. Make this one of your tours you will not be disappointed.....
