The rain didn't hinder our food tasting/walking tour of Austin with Zach. Umbrellas in hand, we walked on to 4 savory and 2 sweet food establishments in the downtown Austin area. Zach was very easy going. His knowledge of all the eating establishments and their history was spot on. His personality kept our spirits lively as the rain tried otherwise. Only downside, there wasn't enough time at the actual eating establishments. Everyone in our party agreed that we all felt rushed when it came to eating. Upside, the eating establishments were FANTASTIC! We will definitely be revisiting a few of them upon our return.

Myself, my husband and 16 year old daughter loved the food tour experience! The walk was easy and comfortable as we listened to Zachary’s excellent and humorous knowledge of Austin! It was fun to eat at some of the yummiest restaurants and learn about the history of amazing Austin! Highly recommend Zachary!

Zachary was a delightful host who provided interesting historical information with humor and grace. The food choices were delicious with local flavor. It was a bit rushed at times. Perhaps more time to visit and less food choices? It was a wonderful way to learn a little about Austin while enjoying delicious food!
