Sunset Cultural Center
This is the meeting place for Carmel Food Tours. Look for the tall, Gothic-style arch and huge windows. It looks a little like a church, but it's not. When you descend into the courtyard, which is located EXACTLY at the intersection of 9th & San Carlos, you'll be greeted by your tour guide.

I have been to Carmel a number of times but only recently learned about Carmel Food Tours. It was a great way to get to know more about Carmel. Our guide, Tracy, showed us around town and pointed out historical and interesting sights along the way. We stopped at a number of restaurants and culinary shops for samples and small dishes. It was really a lot of fun and a great way to enjoy lunch. Pretty filling as well! Tracy was energetic and fun. I'd definitely do it it again as their lineup of stops changes. Highly recommended!

My 2 friends and I went on the food and wine tour our first day in Carmel. It was a wonderful way to see the town and try out some of the great restaurants and shops. Tracy was our tour guide and she was delightful, very knowledgable about the history of Carmel, and made it a lot of fun. I would highly recommend this to anyone!!!
