Thoroughly Enjoyed the Flavors of Philadelphia Tour

We really enjoyed the Flavors of Philly Tour. The pace and distance was just right and easily handled. Along with the abundance of food, we received a wealth of information about the interesting facts, history, and colorful stories. Stacy was so friendly and made sure the group felt fully included and knew each other on a personal level. She really went the extra mile by suggesting eateries specific to participants wants (which we tried and loved!). Additionally, Stacy organized a stop at the lovely Del Frisco Steakhouse even though it wasn’t open to the public at that time of day. The food was all delicious (Philly Cheesesteak and Tomato Pie were the best we’ve had)! Highly recommend the tour and especially early in your stay in Philadelphia!

Karen is an Amazing Guide

Karen was a wonderful tour guide! She not only took us to great food places, but she also provided us with historical references throughout our time together.

Recommend this Tour

The guide, Karen, is what made the tour exceptional. She was fun, knowledgeable, patient. More than enough portion size. If I had to do over again, I would look for an 11am tour, not a 1:30.

Informative and tasty Philly food tour

A great tasty food tour of Philly. The tomato pie was delicious and Zio’s Philly cheesesteak sub was a 10/10.
