We had a great time on the tour. The food was excellent and the history of the area was very informative. We'll definitely do the Capital Hill tour next.

Food Great; Tour Needs Work
Sat, Jul 25, 09   2:00 PM gopheliad Female 20-29 Combination Family Without Children
On the positive side, the food was wonderful, and there was a lot of it. Definitely come hungry and don’t plan on eating dinner after. Also, I thought this was a great thing to do with my out-of-town guests whom otherwise wouldn’t have made it to this DC neighborhood. However, the “tour” portion left something to be desired. I know that this is one of the company’s newer tours, but the guide would forget the items of interest. We would frequently hear things along the lines of “A famous person once lived here. I’m drawing a blank on who it was, but anyway, moving on…” There was also very little description of the food we were eating. The guide would give a brief description (e.g., “it’s chicken and vegetables”), but couldn’t give us much more than that. Additionally, there were 13 people the day we took the tour, and it was difficult for the whole group to hear the guide's spiel. Often, she would speak in the direction of what she was pointing out, rather than at the group, so only those closest to her would be able to hear. I think there is definite potential for this tour, but you might wait until they iron out the kinks and the guide gets a little more experience.

I thought I had seen and tasted just about everything in DC. A new local for about 3 years, and this tour totally proved me wrong. Our guide Natalie was great, and really fun and outgoing. I tried so many delicious things, and loved the diversity of all of the meals. A true VIP experience that I highly recommend to any one even locals! DC Metro Food Tours...great job! Oh and you won't go hungry on this tour either :) A REAL rood experience!

Great fun, great food, good deal!

When we signed up for the tour, we figured we would go to a couple of places and get a small bite at each place. Instead, we were served more food than expected, and it all was delicious! The tour guide was amazing, had a lot of great details and a fun personality. We will be taking the tour again the next time our family comes into town!

A very pleasant, informative afternoon!
Sun, Jun 14, 09   1:00 PM GloriaJacobs Female Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Our tour guide, Deena, was professional, well-informed, interesting and fun. We loved the ribs and oysters at the Union Street Station and the food at our 1st stop; but were not too fond of the Mid-Eastern dishes. We would have perferred a bakery shop stop for dessert. We learned a lot about Old Town Alexandria and its early inhabitants and enjoyed having the walking tour interrupted by restful, refreshing, food and beverage stops. Would highly recommend this tour; it was one of the best values of our week-long trip.

Exceeded my Expectations!
Sat, Jun 13, 09   1:00 PM warnerm1 Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
My husband and I went on this tour and had a great time. The amount of food you receive is well worth the ticket price, and as a non-seafood eater, I was very pleased with how they handled my request to be served a different option. Our guide was exteremely knowledgable about the area and provided so much more interesting historical information than we expected! I highly recommend this activity for "locals" who want to get to know the area easily by way of delicious food!

Best tour I've ever been on
Sat, Jun 6, 09   2:00 PM sshinbrg Female 20-29 Local Individual
What a wonderful experience. Not only was the tour guide friendly and knowledgeable, but the tour itself was fun and really quite interesting. And the food--oh my goodness. Why are there tours without food? Metro Food Tours just proved to me that there is no reason to do a tour without sampling the local cuisine. The food was great, ecclectic and very tasty. I'm definately reccomending this tour to all of my friends, as well as my family.

My best friend and I just just took the Capitol Hill Food Tour and had such a great time. What a wonderful way to spend the day in DC. The restaurants that we went to were so diverse, and we got treated like such VIP. The food was outstanding and I really enjoyed the way our guide tied in the food with the history of the area. You won't go hungry on this tour!! I highly reccomend this tour to anyone of all ages.

Fabulous Foodie Outing
Sun, May 31, 09   1:00 PM ckeppler Female 30-39 Combination Family Without Children
What a fantastic tour concept! Walking around Old Town Alexandria, learning about the history of the area AND getting to taste cuisine at various different restaurants along the way. I'm a local but scheduled this for my parents who were in town for the weekend. We all had a great time. My favorite part was the menu choices at each location, arranged by the tour owner, Jeff. He's definitely a foodie and was able to share great insight about the chefs, the foods we were eating, and offer recommendations on other great spots to hit! I can't wait to sign up for the Capitol Hill tour!
