5.00What a tasty way to learn about Tucson! We had a short amount of time in Tucson to play, so booking this tour seemed a way we could be efficient with our time. We went to multiple restaurants, had a walking tour in the downtown area, saw wonderful murals and learned about the artists and got a bit of history, too. The food was delicious. My single favorite bite of the tour was a chorizo stuffed mushroom was from Charro Steak & Del Rey. I'm still thinking about it, days later, and I just want more. The wonderful thing about this tour is that it truly whet my appetite for a return trip to Tucson for more food adventures. Special thanks to our tour guide Karen Brown who made the tour very enjoyable!

5.00I've lived in Tucson over 25 years and Tucson Food Tours showed me a new part of the community that I don't often explore! Our tour guide, Chris, was really knowledgeable about the history of the community and it was fun to hear stories about 4th Ave and Main Gate Square. The restaurants that are part of the tour were all AMAZING (and I can't wait to go back to them)! I had only been to one of them before so it was nice to discover new places. The others in our group were all from out of town so it was fun to see them enjoying Tucson.
