We recently went on the Atlanta Food Walks tour. There just arent enough things to do like this in Atlanta. The host really took the time from location to location to explain the food, the history, and weaved a compelling story that took us from place to place. That made it a fascinating journey, and a delicious one! I can honestly say that was the best fried chicken ever, and quite likely some of the most amazing pralines. Truly a treat. And the best part was that after all the walking around town, you feel more knowledgeable without all the bloat! Great time, highly recommended

I am so glad that I went on the Atlanta Food Walks tour! I really learned a lot about the history of the city and its food. I loved that we could walk to each location and really looked forward to each tasting as we explored Atlanta. Our tour guide was very passionate about all aspects of the tour: the food, history, scenery, art, relationships they've built with the restaurants, etc. We got to meet many of the owners and chefs of each location. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone living in or visiting Atlanta.

I went on this tour with a friend. Even though I've lived in Atlanta for nearly a decade, I learned so much about different neighborhoods and tried wonderful food. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the city, it's history, and of course it's food! the food portions were generous, but the walking made us feel a little less guilty and kept us from having a "food coma!" I'd definitely recommend this tour wether your visiting or from here and want to try something new!
