5.00Had 5 stops with great variety of local fare. The pace was leisurely so you can take the area without feeling rushed. All of the sampling were delicious and you could add on a liquor package for $21 to pair with the food in three places. Our guide Samantha was incredibly informative, but also responsive to group question. Great way to see what Colorado Springs has to offer to both locals and visitors.

5.00We really enjoyed the tour. All of the food was great, but the best part to me was hearing about the founders of Colorado Springs and seeing all of the Street Art. Adam was a host welcoming us to his home, not just a tour guide. I highly recommend this tour early in your stay because you will hear other visitors’ experiences and plans while in town.

5.00My husband and I enjoyed the Manitou Springs Food tour. We did it our last day there and wished we would have done it first thing. The tour guide (Behr) shared history and we sampled various mineral waters. There were four business stops and enjoyed learning more about the local life. This was enjoyable and informative.
Very enjoyable food and local history tour!

5.00My wife and I did the Colorado Springs food tour led by Behr yesterday. It was great! We are former residents, back for a visit, and we still learned a ton of historical info from Behr. And the food and drinks, at five stops, were very tasty. And what a nice way to finish, with local ice cream! Behr really made the tour come alive, with interesting history facts and fun anecdotes. Great experience!
The photo shows alcohol, but when you get there, 3 small drinks can be added for $21.99 per person.

5.00Absolutely wonderful, even better than expected. Our guide Beth made the entire day so fun and interesting. Beth was very knowledgeable on the history of downtown, and had a lot of fun facts. It was worth every penny. Tour was perfect length of 2 1/2 hrs. I would do this tour again and hope to have Beth as my guide.
Wonderful experience
