My daughter and I participated in this food tour with Sparkle. She was a wonderful guide and we really enjoyed ourselves. We had wonderful food and alcoholic drinks on our tour. It was great to get a bit history along with the delicious food. Everything was timed perfectly. This outfit really knows what they are doing. We highly recommend!!!

Thank you very much! She’s awesome! We definitely recommend booking on our website for that very reason, you’ll be able to select and state your allergy there. Booking on TripAdvisor unfortunately doesn’t allow that option. Thanks again!

We stopped at 7 different restaurants (this includes a roasted peanut tasting and a praline/candy shop). Come with an empty stomach bc by the end of the tour, you will be full. All of the food was honestly fantastic! I enjoyed trying seven different places that I would never have been able to try in just the 24 hours I’m in town. It was awesome to learn about the history of Mobile while also learning about your fellow tour mates. We made new friends, new memories and found new, delicious places to eat! These guys are highly organized locals and I would recommend this experience to everyone!!
