| Living in Chicago I have been to Milwaukee over the years for various events or an evening out. But this walking tour was a great way to get to know the city and its history. It made a great birthday gift for my boyfriend. We totally enjoyed it. |

| My husband and I and another couple enjoyed the walking food tour very much. The guide was knowledgeable; the places we stopped were interesting; and the food was terrific! We walked away saying we'd never go on another walking tour again unless food was involved. We even returned to some of the stops to do some shopping later! Truly a great time. |

| I have a group of lady friends and we call ourselves "The Runaway Girls", six of us attended the food tour and we hope all 12 will make it next year. We all thought the tour was well worth it. The food was great, the history even better. We understand there will be new tours added yearly and we look forward to what Theresa picks for next year. |

| The historical information was interesting, especially considering I have lived in this city for over 45 years.
If your main interest is the food, this may not be the tour for you. As mentioned in the description, it is a 'tasting'.
Overall, an enjoyable way to spend a Saturday afternoon. |

| My out of town niece raved about the tour to her mother who will visit later.
I enjoyed the tour. I was disappointed in the food from Maders. Sandwich was not tasty.
Other food was unique and inviting.
By choice and medical reasons we do not drink alcohol. Other special drinks for us to enjoy or taste would be good. Sprechers? |

| Loved being able to see the neighborhoods up close and personal. Theresa was very friendly and informative. Loved the history and little tidbits of information about the places we visited. |

| The weather was lovely, the group very diverse but congenial. Theresa provided interesting history for the various businesses. ( I'm not sure Oprah went to high school in Milwaukee, though. Maybe that could be double-checked for us skeptics!) Also, it would be nice if the businesses selected were all open on Sunday to provide more than a peek through the window! The pace and variety was nice and Theresa kept everyone moving in a diplomatic way. |

| The food was uneven. Zafirro's was very good, as was cheese tasting on Old World Third Street. Usinger's was a waste of time. Our guide was relatively new to Milwaukee (10 years.) He read much of his presentation from a paper. This could have been much better with a better guide and a few better selected eateries. |

| We really enjoyed the tour from the first bite of Pizza to the final stop.
I learned a lot about the Brady Street area that I didn't know. I will go back to some of the stops to spend more time and buy some products.
I was a bit afraid that just having tastings wouldn't be enough food, but we were definately full by the end of the tour.
I want to take the 3rd Ward tour next. We all had a great time. |
