Of course the food was good, our guide Raffle was the best, he had so much knowledge about New Orleans in general not just the food, I really wished he could of been our tour guide for our entire trip, he not only talked about NOLA, he talked about his own personal history, he had us all laughing the entire tour, I kept his number, the next time I return, I will for sure give him a call. All in all, if you want to taste a little bit of everything, I recommend taking this tour.

This is a walking food tour. Four places to stop at. Half the time was spent outside and the other half was spent inside. Our tour guide Raff was AMAZING 🤩

Highly Recommend

Crystal_O, Dec 2023

Perfect job for Donald our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable in the history of NOLA food and gave us so many tips. It was very well worth the cost. I would highly recommend. Food was sample size which is what we expected. Word of the wise - If you have food allergies don’t go on a food tour. We had a few people with them and they had to make special accommodations which was annoying. I don’t understand if you’re a picky eater or can’t have this or that why you would go on a food tour. Just a thought.

Was wonderful real enjoy it

Tracy_P, Dec 2023

Learning about cultural of New Orlean fact that he give Us I don’t know , would come to take again ,

Raffle Is Great

Jenifer_F, Dec 2023

My husband and I did the walking food tour and had so much fun. We tried foods that we would not normally order and were surprised we really enjoyed everything! Raffle the tour guide had entertaining stories, gave history of the foods/cooking styles, and great recommendations on places to try that were not on the tour. We are planning on doing another tour with Raffle on our next trip to New Orleans.

Great food and very informative guide. I would recommend this to everyone. It was easy walking, even in the rain.

Great tour

Mai_N, Oct 2023

We had a great time, Raffle made our tour very memorable. We ate, laughed, walked, and learned so much about the history and culture of New Orleans. Raffle gave us recommendations and that helped with navigating the food in the city.

Awesome history with little food

Marlo_S, Oct 2023

Our guide Raffel was awesome. Very knowledgeable and told great stories. He was willing to provide great historical info and info about many other restaurants about town. However, we really didn’t have much food on the tour. This was a minimal tasting at best. Everything was served in tiny plastic cups with plastic forks. We have done similar tours using Viator and we had so much we couldn’t eat it all. Granted both of those tours where in Greece and Italy but really guys? Come on! We had to go straight to dinner after this tour so that was very much a let down.

We loved our tour guide...

carri_W, Sep 2023
