| Both the history and the food were excellent. Our guide was wonderful. She was very engaging and knowledgeable. I live in the area and have recommended the tour to several friends. It is wonderful for both locals and visitors. I plan on trying your other tours soon. | ||||||

| Inspired by a great idea of not just sightseeing, but also tasting some food, we were full of enthusiastic expectations. I should say that they were fulfilled about 80%. The food was good (though not excellent, and it was not always clear why this particular restaurant /cuisine was chosen). Maybe it would have been better if we had one full-size dish at each place, rather than sampling this and that. the guide was very nice, cheerful and knowledgeable. the big surprise was that sightseeing was no less enjoyable than the food :))))) If I had to do this again, I would probably consider pure sightseeing. | ||||||

Overall, an amazing culinary experience.

| The Capitol Hill Food Tour provided an excellent opportunity to sample a variety of different restaurants in the Capitol Hill area (Indian, Salvadorian, southern soul food, etc.). The tour was VERY well mapped out and provided an excellent overview of the history and legacy within the Capitol Hill area of DC. Our guide was well versed in her knowledge of both the cuisine and history, and was very responsive to the group's questions, comments, etc. The portion sizes at each restaurant were well worth the money and the amount of walking in between each stop was perfect. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who loves food, history, or just wants to experience something new and different. I can't wait to try out one of the other tours this group offers! Overall, this was an amazing culinary experience! | ||||||

| I took my parents out for my Father's birthday and we had a lovely time. Our guide was very knowledgeable and led us through parts of Capitol Hill I never knew existed. The food was very good, too. Walking was a perfect way to break up the meals. | ||||||

| I decided to buy tickets for the tour as part of a day-out with my girlfriend. I didn't quite know what to expect before the tour started, but by the end, had had a really good afternoon. The guided tour of Alexandria was not the typical historical drawl - instead it was a combination of quirky facts, tidbits about the modern/historical neighbourhoods and some good (and varied) food. I would highly recommend the tour - especially as part of a fuller day-out in the area. | ||||||

Very Enjoyable Tour with Good Food

| There were five of us, some seniors, who took this tour on November 7th and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The choice of restaurants and the food selected at each one was excellent. We especially liked the choice of small, owner operated places. The commentary on the history and highlights of Old Town was informative and interesting. And it certainly helped that the day was warm and sunny! | ||||||

Totally enjoyed our food tour

| We toured with Robert, who was an excellent guide. He really had an in depth knowledge of the town and its history. We also enjoyed all of the food that we had. The restaurants were really interesting, as was their food. We weren't as full afterward as I had expected, so we returned for a casual dinner to Bilbo Baggins. All in all, it was a very enjoyable afternoon. I would definitely try one of the other tours when I am in the area again. | ||||||

History, Food & Exercise Combined

| By walking to eating destinations in Old Town you learn about the history of the town along the way while simultaneously building up an appetite and suspense regarding your next destination. Food was tasty and, contrary to expectations, portions were not small. | ||||||

| My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this guided walking tour of old Capitol Hill neighborhoods. Combining history, architecture and diverse food experiences with an easy outdoor stroll was a highlight of our week-long visit to Washington, DC. It is the perfect antidote to days spent indoors touring museums and uninspired cafeteria dining. We especially enjoyed the soul food barbeque and Natalie, our charming knowledgeable guide. | ||||||

| Fantastic tour of Alexandria. I live locally, and it introduced me to several places (food and non-food) that I had never been to. If you want a creative way to see historic old town Alexandria, I highly recommend this tour. I was however looking to be exposed to more food places. | ||||||

Not the culinary experience we wanted
|

| This tour was not what we would consider a good culinary experience. In fact, we would never choose to go to these restaurants outside of the tour. The first Indian restaurant seemed good until we saw a giant cockroach run across the floor. The second and third restaurants were dirty and not appealing. "Culinary experience" implies somewhat high-end to us. This wasn't even close. It was low-end, and we would never go on a tour by this company again. Unfortunately, the history in this region was also quite boring and nothing that we were interested in. All around it was a waste of time and money. | ||||||

Great Tour!

| My sister and I signed up for this tour thinking it would be fun and different and it definitely was! Our guide, Sarah, knew a lot about the city and neighborhood. We were surprised how much history was around us. She warned us about it being a lot of food and that we should pace ourselves...we were stuffed! But only in a good way so we definitely recommend this tour to anyone who's looking for an easy-paced tour with great food. | ||||||

| My girlfriends and I have a monthly get-together (there are 14 of us). Each girl has a month assigned to them. October was my month and I searched long and hard to find a cool activity for us to do and stumbled upon the Historical Food and Walking Tour in Old Town Alexandria. The day ended up being a rainy one, but the good times were still on! We had such a blast!! Our tour guide was very informitive (even if you are very familiar with the area) and the food stops were simply devine! I highly recommend to anyone (singles, families, etc.) to consider taking this tour. The price can not be beat and the history you learn and the food you taste is a memory that won't be forgotten! | ||||||

| Everyone seemed to enjoy the tour, in spite of the cold and dreary, rainy day. Yes, we were shivering, but as a group, we found the information interesting, the tour guide in good spirits, and the food, also, very good. Nice to see Alexandria up close and personal. | ||||||
