| We enjoyed the tour and food samples. It was a very informative, historical tour. Theresa was so nice and did a great job. Our group of 6 enjoyed getting to know Milwaukee better. |

| 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? |

| 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. |

| This is a great way to get to know the Milwaukee area. In a nutshell, this walking tour takes in the heritage of three of Milwaukee's major ethnic groups--Milwaukee's Italian heritage, German heritage and Irish heritage. It is a great way to learn about the contributions that these three ethnic groups have brought to the city. This is especially so with the German group of immigrants as echoes of Germany abound in this city. I very much enjoyed this walking tour and I very much enjoy staying in Milwaukee; this city really has a story to tell just by looking at its buildings, trying the foods of Milwaukee's many ethnic restaurants and as told in Milwaukee's many festivals during the summer months. Absolutely wonderful!! |

| They sold too many tickets and a second female tour guide showed up 1/3 of the way through. Breaking into 2 groups of 10 each did help, BUT the guides still do not have microphones/bullhorns (esp for women without the loudest of voices) so it is very hard to hear them - especially older people. There was a lot of noise from trucks and traffic. That really put a damper on what could have been a very good experience. Food/wine was nice. Stops were good and informative. Overall, good tour IF you can hear it. |

| The food tour concentrated on the Italian and German heritage of Milwaukee. I especially liked the emphasis on local establishments. Molly also gave our group quite a bit of historical information as well, which I found pleasantly surprising. The Italian portion was much more detailed then the German, Brady street was a great walk and we were able to try many different types of food and drink. The German portion was much less involved, not sure why other then after such a long walk maybe there just wasn't enough time to go to more establishments. I would highly reccommend the tour to any foodies out there who also enjoy history. I would also ask for Molly as she did a terrific job keeping schedules and making the tour interesting...

| We were very pleased with the tour. The history was interesting and the portions of food were good. There is a long break in food/tour activity between Brady Street and Old World 3rd Street, something lacking there, but in all a great experience. |
