Great tour with Noah - I took the tour with my husband and two kids on a family trip to San Diego and we had a wonderful time. The food was delicious and our tour guide, Noah was kind and informative. I would recommend this trip for people with families!

Food Tour - The food was varied and yummy! We had bagels with apple pie cream cheese, empanadas, Greek food, tacos, and ice cream! Our guide, Noah, was knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a great food tour.

Great Food, Great Time - This food tour was such an incredible experience! From the very first bite to the last, everything was just perfect. Our guide was so friendly and passionate, making us feel like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than on a tour. Each stop had something unique and delicious, and I loved trying dishes I might not have ordered on my own. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was lively, and I left feeling full and happy. It was the perfect mix of food, fun, and great company—I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Yummy tour - Tour guide Stephan was knowledgeable and he knew his restaurants. The Gaslamp district doesn’t have a rich history I guess. Not many fun facts to take away. Food was amazing. So much!!! We would have liked to have a take home box because it was honestly so good but so so so much.

It was fun! - The guide, Sephan, was very knowledgable of the district and had a very cheery personality. The food choices/restaurants made by him and/or the company were worthy, which, in combination with the guide, made the entire tour fun and satisfying. Don't eat before the tour. You'll be quite full by the end!

Underwhelming. - Perhaps it’s because the Gaslamp district doesn’t have very much to offer, but we went to places that we could easily find on our own. Stefan was friendly but consistently talked about himself and how wild/cool he is. We stayed within a 2 block radius and it went over 3 hours…. We could have experienced more in the time frame than we did. Again, Stefan made the tour more about himself than the history and culture of the Gaslamp district. Bagel, Cuban appetizers, Thai lunch, one taco, ice cream. We did really enjoy the atmosphere of the Cuban place though.
