| It gave us a great appreciation of our own city. So often you just head right to your destiantion and don't enjoy the surrounding area. It was fun being a tourist in our own city. The guide gave us good insight into tibits about our town. |

| It was a great experience and I plan on doing another one next year. When I tell my friends about how much food I got, they can't believe it. The food was great too. I plan on going back to most of the restaurants we visited. Our tour guide was great and shared a lot of Milwaukee history that I didn't know before. |

Lovely evening --- more food than I expected

| I was on the Third Ward walking tour on Satuday, October 24. It was a great opportunity to try several restaurants in the Third Ward that I would probably not have visited on my own. I was only expecting to get a few samples of food along the way but it was more than a full dinner by the time were finished. Given the price of $40, it was a great value.
I think some of the Milwaukee history facts the guide shared were a bit questionable. For example, we were told the Rockwell Automation clock was the largest 4 sided clock in the world -- since Big Ben in London is two-sided. I guess she has never been to London. Big Ben is bigger and 4-sided. The unique feature of the RA clock is that it is the largest four-sided ILLUMINATED clock. There were several such misses on the details. Maybe the tour should just stick talking about the food, no one really seemed interested in a history lesson anyway. |

| We really enjoyed this walking tour. The food was very good and it was neat to find some new places to try for dinner. I'm looking forward to trying some of the other tours offered. One of the restaurants cancelled on us, but the organizers seamlessly found a great substitute for us. |

| Our group loved the tour!! Not only was the food interesting and fantastic, it was great to learn a little more about the area. I'm very impressed that you took the initiative to put this together and do such a great job. It was even better than the Seattle food tour we took just a week before this one! |

What a Gas, and Yummy, too!

| We had 4 couples and we thought this was really fun and entertaining! We went to several places we had never been too, heard some local history and stories, ate some yummy stuff--and really had a lovely evening! We would totally recommend this! And, we want to try the others as well! |

Everyone should do this!

| We had a fantastic time. The tour guide was friendly and informative, but not intrusive. The group was small so you got to know everyone. There was not too much walking and there was a lot of food! It was my husband's birthday and our tour guide was able to get us a dessert for him and our whole group sang to him. It was very special. |

Plenty of food and friendly tour guides

| There was definitely a mix of different styles of food and the tour guides made sure they mingled with the group. Each place offered a respectable amount of food. We were a little disappointed in the atmosphere and food at the Irish pub, and would have preferred an Irish beer/ale sample here. Save the Pabst/Schiltz comparison for a different eatery. All-in-all, very enjoyable. |

Fun to explore your own backyard

| This tour was fun and filling and allowed us to explore the treasure of our own backyard. Being from the area it was nice to learn more about the history and sample the restaurants. I've been on culinary walking tours in other cities and this definately was more like a progressive dinner than a tasting or sampling. I would recommend this to residents of the area and tourists alike. |

We had a great time!!
