Great experience — yummy and fun!

Shannon was a fun, knowledgeable guide. I’ve been to Savannah numerous times but learned quite a few new things on this tour. Food was great. Lots of hidden gems you’d never find on your own. Perfect amount of good you. It’s a must do in Savannah!

Lots of history and good food

Good information about the areas and history. Enjoyed the food at the stops. Merrill did a great job guiding the group and making it an enjoyable tour.

A Tasty Tour

This was a fun and tasty day overall. Ann did a great job of both pointing out restaurant/food attractions and sharing Savannah stories with us as we walked around the city. The food was good and gave us a nice sense of Savannah's southern coastal culture. The chicken salad sandwich at Zunzibar and the fried green tomatoes at Sorry Charlie were standouts to us (as were the boiled peanuts - the seasoning was great, and we agree they might not have been to our liking without it).

Early trip food research tour- you WILL go back!

Was absolutely impressed with most of the locations we visited. The little empanada shop alone was worth the tour, add in the staring location….we went back to almost every location. Highly recommend to do early in the trip as a “research mission” to give you a good approach on where to spend the rest of your trip. A bit of local culture as you walk. Not too much food, but you don’t leave hungry.
