David was our guide today. THIS IS the tour you want to book! He met us early and was very informative. The amount and variety of food was fantastic. The information and history was exceptional. He gave us so many ideas of places to go to finish out our trip. There’s a fair account of walking, but it’s slow paced with many stops. You want to book this tour one of your first days in the area because you will know so much about this city and will want to see so much more.

Amazing ! Our guide was terrific! ! Fabulous info and took some pics for us so we’d have them ! The bites were unbelievable? I thought we’d share a waffle or had a taster of ice cream but Jackie had us all full size taste !! It was a little cold to start … Jackie made sure to reach out night before to say dress warm and ask about any dietary restrictions! Cannot say enough good things! Took the tour because I had friends visiting but this Cincy native learned a lot if her city too !

Thank you for the wonderful review! On a Riverside Food Tour, we promise no one will leave hungry. We are locally owned and operated, so we work hard to make sure all our guests feel like a VIP.

Jackie was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her city- Cincinnati. Food selections were representative of the area. I learned a lot and would recommend this tour. Jackie took the time to get to know each guest and offer multiple suggestions of other activities/ events in the area that would be of interest to each individual/family.
