Amazing tour and tour guide. I could not be more thankful for the experience and creativity with our tour. We ended up revisiting plenty of the same places the very next day. So amazing!

If you love food and you’re visiting Portland, please go on this tour! Our tour guide Michelle is so sweet and gave us really interesting info on each of the food carts we went to. The portions are generous, so bring an empty stomach! Every food cart had something incredible to offer. Also a plus for this tour was that it’s very Covid friendly. Michelle was stocked on hand sanitizer and antibacterial wipes. She also made sure to keep us all comfortable and ensure safety while we dined. Thank you Lost Plates! You are amazing!
