The food was great but the most entertaining part of our tour was hearing the history of the area. I am from Cincinnati and I didn't know that the canal went down Eggleston Ave. There were so many details about the meaning of the murals and the architecture that I felt i had a much better appreciation of OTR. The enthusiasm of our guide was contagious and she captured all of our attention with her stories. Well done!

Thanks Kristine for sharing. It's always a plus when we get high marks from our local residents. Most people think a food tour is simply trying new restaurants. They are surprised by all the history they learn too! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Jackie was so great. Knowledgeable AND fun. We always enjoy Riverside Food Tours when we visit Cincinnati! We do food tours everywhere we go (New York, Chicago, Nashville, etc.), but I'm still always blown away by how good every tour is by Riverside.

Thanks Delaney for the compliments. That's quite an honor to be named one of the the best food tours out of all those cities you have visited. Now we have 10 different tours to try. I hope you can join us again sometime.

This tour was very interesting, enlightening about Cincinnati history, culture, food varieties, architecture, murals. The food that different restaurants served to us was wonderful. The guide was very knowledgeable and shared with us everything very nicely. I definitely recommend this tour to everyone willing to know Cincinnati.
