| We looked forward to this experience very much. It was interesting and the guide friendly. Recently the company advertising the tour was bought over and I am not sure that the new owners have completely embraced the tour. It would have been nice to learn more about the cuisine and ingredients, or even seen some actual cooking. |

| This was a fun tour, when we signed up we really didn't know what it was about. We thought we were going to go into restaurants and taste different foods. Mainly we just tried the foods at the open farmers market, stopped at a candy shop to taste (yummy) and stopped at a tea shop. We did get info on which restaurants to eat at and we loved our guide. I think her name was Susan. It was on Sat the 10th. She gave us some very interesting information about the history. Also it is 3 hours long which was ok. |

| This is a wonderful way to see a city and understand what it's culture; also a great way to learn about the food history and get tips on great restaurants that only the locals know. |

| My mother and I enjoyed our time with Susan our tour guide. The tour was a fun time all in its self, but we feel as though Susan went into greater detail with us. She made the tour enjoyable and informative. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family that may be visiting the area. |

| I learned a lot about the history of the food in the lowcountry. The stops on the tour were very fun and interesting. I would not have known about any of these places (Kennedy's, Teavanna, Ted's Butcher) if I had not gone on this tour. Not only were the places fun and interesting, it was really great meeting the owners and their attitudes about their businesses!
This was a great tour and I would highly recommend it! |

| Everything was great! The only thing I would have enjoyed more would have been tasting more of the lowcountry foods. Sarah was very knowledgeable and the pace of the tour was good. This is my second tour with Carolina Food Pros and if given the chance I would like to do one of the other tours. |

| My girlfriend and I are very much into fine cuisine and cooking, and we learned a lot about the flavors of South Carolina through this tour. We also managed to pick up some ingredients that we will use in our cooking. The chocolate shop stop was also very enjoyable as we both have a hard time finding real chocolate in the US. We had a lot of fun and would recommend this tour to other people who are interested in local flavors and delights. |

| This tour is fantastic for a first-time visitor to Charleston. I recommend it as one of the first things to do upon arriving, since it provides an excellent way to see and learn about great places that you might otherwise miss. The tour guide was extremely knowledgable, not only of Charleston, but also of the history of the city and the role and relationship of that history to the local food. The tour covers lots of ground, so definitely wear good walking shoes. A couple people in our tour group (age 60+) were definitely worn out towards the end, but they still enjoyed it. |
