Tacos were very good, the Birria and fish especially. There was a nice hibiscus margarita as well and the guide was social and nice as well.

We had Nancy as our tour guide and we loved the whole experience! We learned a lot about SB, saw a lot of new places (including the amazing court house), and had some delicious food and drinks!! Definitely coming back to do this again!

Our tour guide Nancy was THE BEST! We had such a great time on the tour and it included visiting some of the historic sites in Santa Barbara. The food selection was delicious (COME HUNGRY TO THIS TOUR) and Nancy was so much fun and so gracious. We had my elderly mother with us so Nancy made sure to pace things out slowly and take breaks throughout the tour. 100% recommend but be warned to wear comfortable shoes and come hungry.

This was a fabulous tour. I am a local and still learned things about SB history. Each of our stops served superb food and drinks in abundance. I thought we would just have small tastes of food but we had full sized margaritas(3 of them) and full sized tacos. Our guide, Nancy, was informative and great to chat with. I recommend this tour with great enthusiasm and look forward to doing anothet.

Fun fun fun! Come Hungary!!! Great thing to do with adult children. Very accommodating hosts! Great variety of tacos, salsas and margaritas! Perfect ending with churros and horchata! And even learned a bit of Santa Barbara history.

This tour was amazing, delicious and so informative! Even as a local I found myself learning new things about the history of SB, and more importantly eating tacos at places I’d never been to but will absolutely return to in the future. This is such a fun way to get to know the city!

Laura B

Our guide, Nancy, was wonderful! She did a really good job making sure that the 3 of us in our group got the type of drinks that we preferred and that we liked our tacos and sauces. She gave us lots of information about the history of the places that we walked to. We all had a fun time and we definitely had more than enough to eat and drink. We would recommend Taste Santa Barbara Food Tours to anyone looking to have for a relaxing afternoon walking around town and eating.

We went on the taco and drinks tour on Saturday afternoon and had Nancy as our guide. She is an absolute delight, mingling humor and history as we walked around downtown SB. We were definitely full by the end after consuming so many delicious tacos and margaritas. I also dare you to not eat all the chips and salsa at the first stop even though Nancy warns you to save your appetite for the rest of the tour. I loved that the tour ended with a sweet treat -- churros. I definitely recommend this tour for locals or tourists as a great way to showcase Santa Barbara and its food while learning something new. If you love tacos, take this tour, you won't regret it!
