What To Expect

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.

We have been on many food tours and this one was one of the best. Not only did we get some background info on this cute little town but the tastings were varied and enough without being overwhelming. We had a hot dog/corn/sausage (pick 1), honey, chocolate, rice noodles, charcuterie, and an eclair. The weather was perfect and parking was easy. We would highly recommend this tour and our local tour guide Amber

Very nice experience. Good food, nice variety. Enjoyed the stories and local history mixed in with the food. Bonnie was an excellent guide.

Bonnie was a pleasure to walk around town with. She was a local and very informative about the history of Carmel By the Sea. Lots of small things you would even think to ask. We would have appreciate more of a variety of foods. We would have liked a little less sweets and maybe more wine pairings and food samples. Example might be instead of 1 whole sausage maybe a small taste of each of the types of sausage. Maybe instead of a standard piece of cheesecake we get a sample bite of 3-4 types of desserts. Just a suggestion to the restaurants who are participating. We did have an amazing day walking around town and our group was friendly and talkative too. All in all we would recommend this tour.
