5.00Very nice tour with a very knowledgeable guide, John. Food portions were perfect and food choices also varied and represented traditional dishes. The only two recommendations I would make would be to have coffee available at the desert stop. The cake was wonderful, but sweet, and a cup of coffee would have been perfection! Also, it would have been nice for participants to receive the names of the restaurants (given to us on paper or small business card) we went to that day so that we could return or visit their website.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly...

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommended! I had the absolute best experience on my Charleston food tour, thanks to our guide, Dana. She was amazing from start to finish—warm, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history, culture, and food scene. Dana didn’t just lead a tour… she brought Charleston to life! Her passion for the city is contagious, and she made every stop feel special. The food was incredible, but Dana is truly what made the experience unforgettable. If you’re visiting Charleston, do yourself a favor and ask for Dana—you won’t regret it! Highly, highly recommended! Sincerely, Stephanie J Old Saybrook, CT

3.00This tour was basically OK. We learned a few new things about Charleston, but we probably only walked a quarter mile altogether at most. It basically is a tour to four establishments in the touristy district of East Bay St with one side excursion to a historical alley to catch a bit of the "old Charleston" experience. The food was pretty good, but not worth the $110 price tag unfortunately.
Fun food tour.

5.00Fun food tour with a great guide, Michael Smith. Stoped at three good restaurants and had more food at each one than I expected, then had desert at a fourth. Michael also gave us some interesting history of Charleston as we walked between restaurants. Highly recommend this tour.
Great food, insightful history, fun time.

5.00This was a great tour. The food was fantastic and plentiful, as well as locally significant. Simon spent his time with us and incorporated a lot of interesting history. The food was sufficient for a meal and we were even offered to take some home. Simon offered suggestions for dinner and activities later. My 9 year old daughter accompanied us, and she had a fun time as well. It's a great way to have a meal, meet other travelers, and even teach children history in an innovative way. We travel and do food Tours in several cities. I would say this is top notch. Thank you Simon!
Fun time and good history

5.00I go on a walking food tour in every city I visit and this one ranks as TOP NOTCH. Our guide, John, was beyond amazing. His knowledge of Charleston was amazing, his sense of humor was extraordinary, and the food choices were outstanding! I am returning to Charleston next summer with my husband and we will do this tour! Highly recommend!
Fantastic Food Tour with Michael!

5.00We had such a wonderful experience on our Charleston culinary tour with Michael. Every stop offered delicious food, and he did an amazing job explaining the stories behind each dish. What really made the day special, though, was his knowledge of Charleston’s history — especially the beautiful and charming Philadelphia Alley. His enthusiasm and passion brought everything to life, and I learned so much while enjoying great food. Highly recommend Michael if you’re looking for a fun, flavorful, and informative tour!
