This is a great tour and great food. Our host was knowledgeable and friendly and it was a relaxed and fun event. We stopped at 3 restaurants plus took the free trolley during our tour. We were stuffed by the end so make sure you come hungry!!

A really great walk through Dallas Uptown with some amazing insights from our tour guide! I mostly enjoyed the macarons and the fresh bakery - well worth it!

This was so fun!! Our guide was Jim and he was awesome, friendly & very knowledgeable! You get soo much food we were STUFFED so dont eat before or plan on eating after. You also get to see so much of Dallas from walking to riding the trolley! 150% reccommend this tour!

Lori J

Wonderful and one of our party was blind. We called last minute for a morning tour & they were VERY accommodating. Because we requested morning & they were agreeeable, ours was a private tour so we gladly accepted the additional fee. Justin was our guide & is most informative. The variety of cuisines & dishes was impressive. Most impressive however, was the service & attention from the owner of Baboush. His, also, were the most surprising, yet delicious tastings. You do NOT go away hungry. Word of advice, pace yourself from the start! We also added the alcohol pairings & we’re pleased we did.

So enjoyed learning about Dallas and tasting a variety of wonderful foods! Thank you Jim for sharing your wealth of knowledge. Felt like a bit of a local when I left! The trolley ride was a fun addition and the macarons were a wonderful ending to a delightful day! Thanks Jim…can’t wait to visit Dallas again and go back to San Martin and Baboush!

We had a great time. Our tour guide was Andrew and he was very knowledgeable about the area. We got to try some great food and got to ride on the trolley in up town. We had a lot of fun and would do it again.
