Great food, company and history! Angee was the best! It was pouring rain, but that didn’t dampen the experience. Would highly recommend!
Well worth it!

Wonderful! 10/10. Would definitely do again. So much fun to taste and see a few of the hidden gems in SLO. Angee has so much knowledge of the local history. We brought our teens and they loved it too.
Super Fun Way to Spend a Few Hours Exploring SLO with an Amazing Guide

It's hard not to love San Luis Obispo. I've only had a few brief visits in the past so for this time (extended visit) I decided this tour would be a good way to learn a little about the town and the food. A great decision! This is a walk-able town with an interesting history and many great local food options. Having a guide who is knowledgeable, accommodating and fun made this a 5-star experience. My goals were to learn a little about SLO while eating some good food at places I might not have tried or even been aware of - check and check. Angie does a great job introducing you to a variety of options - BBQ, Brunch, Peruvian and enough sweets to last you a month. I consider myself a connoisseur of treats (if only because of how much I consume!) and the chocolatier we visited was world class. Not an exaggeration. In my opinion this is a must-do for anyone visiting SLO. P.S. - I enjoyed it so much I booked the Mojo Uptown Tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2021
Thank you so much for spending the day with us Jeff! We are looking forward to hosting you on the Mojo tour. PS no mushrooms!
Delicious
