It was a great walk around some of the squares, learning of the history, all while tasting our way through. We absolutely loved our experience

What a great experience. It was a good combination of samples of good food and history. We want back to one of the stops for a meal and it didn't disappoint. Our guide was informative and good natured. Would recommend this tour, for sure.

We booked the tour on our most recent trip 1/22. It did not disappoint! Our guide, Beck, was very informative about the history of the town and a great tour guide! We stopped at 6 locations for small bites, but in the end it was filling enough for a lunch time tour. Would recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Cindy was an excellent guide who provided a great commentary on Savannah’s history as well as thorough descriptions of the food we tasted. The walk was leisurely and the stops well spaced. Cindy was enthusiastic and showed concern for the well-being of all participants.

Wonderful, well-paced tour replete with history and both traditional and modern twists on classic southern American cuisine. Our guide, Heather, was very friendly and knowledgeable, and used an iPad to demonstrate some unique historical features of Savannah. We sampled a range of foods from cheese straws to she-crab soup to shrimp and grits to pork belly sliders, and ending with a delightful honey tasting. Optional “adult beverages” are not included, an arrangement I prefer (the Bloody Mary’s at Rhett’s we’re outstanding). Great experience!
