Great food tour!

Amy_P, Apr 2024

David was a wonderful guide, combining lots of Portland history with delicious food samplings. He texted me the day before to check in on any food concerns or allergies within our group. We had a wonderful experience !

Great Tour

Awesome tour, 5+ stars !!!

Deena_Z, Apr 2024

Our tour guide David was fantastic! Local guy, very knowledgeable and fun! Great food variety and plentiful portions. One of the best food tours we’ve been on. David shared interesting details and info about the city and was very familiar with the establishments, their offerings and stories. Would highly recommend this tour, it was a very enjoyable experience!

This was an amazing food...

Patricia_P, Mar 2024

This was an amazing food tour expertly facilitated by our wonderful and knowledgeable guide, David. Everything was prepared in advanced and the hood was ready when we arrived at each place. He took care of all the details, including accommodations for food sensitivities. We loved it!

Lots of food and fun

Wendy_M, Mar 2024

David was an excellent tour guide ! The food was great and he gave us some wonderful history and facts

A wonderful afternoon spent with good company

Hui_L, Feb 2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our food tour with David! Loved the fact that we got Portland history as well as good food along the way. David is so personable and sweet, knowing that we don't drink alcohol he provided us with an alternative stop. All the stops were good and we're totally stuffed by the end of the tour. I would recommend wearing comfortable shoes since a good part of downtown Portland was covered. Otherwise comes hungry and prepare for a good time!

We are Foodies....and Loved This Tour!!!

Judi_P, Feb 2024

Dave is an amazing tour guide! His knowledge of Portland history, food, fun facts, and his perfectly timed quips made the tour impactful, insightful, and fantastically fun! If you love food, are curious about all things downtown and Portland, I strongly recommend. The pace was moderate, the food portions generous, and the fellowship worth doing this tour again!

A must do while visiting Portland

BeckyLizzo, Jan 2024

A tour i wouldn’t highly recommend! I took my boyfriend who was traveling here for the first time from New Mexico and it was a great way to introduce him to Portland. As a Portland native I was pleasantly surprise by all of the amazing food choices…none of which I had tried before. David was amazing! He was super knowledgeable about the food, city and of course Pokémon! Book this tour and create lasting memories.

Outstanding

Venecia_C, Jan 2024

David did an amazing job as a tour guide. We learned the rich history of Portland and enjoyed a variety of foods from different cultures. Highly recommended this tour.

Wonderful tour, tasty bites!

janine837, Jan 2024

We did a family food tour and really enjoyed our time with David. He was knowledgable and fun and created a great experience!

Yes! Book this tour!

Abbie_N, Dec 2023

We had the best time on our walking food tour of Downtown Portland. David was entertaining and full of food and historical facts about his town. He’s anecdotes added to the experience while he shared his perspective as a Portland native. The food was scrumptious, plentiful, cooked fresh but ready to serve with no wait. I highly recommend this tour rain or shine! - Abbie & Enrique from NorCal

A Fun and Delicious Day in Portland

Michele_F, Nov 2023

We had such a good time on the food tour! David is a wonderful guide! He is super fun, lighthearted and kind. He took us to some delicious spots all around town. We ate so much good food in places we wouldn't have known about on our own. He knows Portland history and shared a lot of interesting things about the city. If you want to have a fun day, eat lots of delicious food and learn more about Portland, this is the tour!

Best tour ever!

Timothy_E, Nov 2023

David is truly Portland’s finest! Born and raised, David showed us what Portland was all about through the history and food carts. He was personable, friendly, and an incredible guide and host. He was the highlight of our trip! Would highly recommend his tour and we will be sure to book him again the next time we’re in Portland.

Best food tour ever!

Caralyn_S, Oct 2023

Excellent tour. David is knowledgeable, funny and sincere. Food stops were the best I've ever had on a food tour. Loved learning about the area from a local who has lived here his whole life. Highly recommended!

Tasty Food and Knowledgeable Guide

ekeeney17, Sep 2023

This was an amazing tour! David was so knowledgeable about the city and found delicious choices that accounted for all tastes and dietary needs. It was such a fun way to see and taste Portland. Absolutely recommend! And it’s supporting a small business/local entrepreneurship as a bonus!

Authentic, fun, delicious 😋

Rekha_R, Sep 2023

Authentic, delicious, fun tour! Definitely wear comfortable shoes. Guide was a Portland native, knowledgeable and funny with interesting and unique Portland trivia. I learned things despite being a native myself. It’s as described and even better. Thank you!

Treat yourself and TAKE THIS TOUR!

Dana_N, Sep 2023

What a fantastic time! I wish I could give 10 stars! The 3 of us have lived in the Portland metro area for approximately 20yrs and still learned some fun things about our city! The food was beyond delicious and David was an absolute delight! I was so full by the end, I was uncomfortable! I cannot recommend this outing enough! Even if you live local you will enjoy this day out in our city. TAKE THIS TOUR! David is perfection!!!

An Awesome Experience with a Fantastic Guide!!

Lori_L, Sep 2023

My husband and I had a fabulous time on the tour! Our tour guide, David, was awesome and made the experience even better than expected. Of course he was knowledgeable about the food, but we were delighted he was extremely well versed in the history of the locations we visited. We’ve been to Portland multiple times and never knew about the foods he introduced us to on the tour. David, thank you for making my husband’s birthday so special!

The Guide and the Tastes were wonderful

Daniel_S, Aug 2023

Our guide, David, truly knows and loves his city. We live in greater Seattle suburbs and have spent very little time in Portland. My pre-conceived notion of Portland and it's people are what I've learned from sitcoms. David brought the city to life, especially the thriving food truck scene. We learned so many fun facts and local history while our tastebuds were tickled by flavorful fare from a few local food trucks, tea, Hawaiian shaved ice, a chocolatier, and a beverage bus that allows you to bring your own food, while you enjoy a cold alcoholic drink on the canopied, and fanned, roof top. And, our bellies were full. David is a very good historian and storyteller; a mixture of sage and humor. We'll be back with our teens to share what we learned. And, we'll come again to try another walking food tour. There's just so much to taste and learn. I wouldn't hesitate to sign up with another tour with David. He has so much to share.
