I took my parents on this as a Mother's day gift while they were visiting from Detroit. It was the highlight of their trip and would recommend it to anyone in the same situation.

Good Time!
Sat, Jul 11  11:15 AM DebKomberec Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
We had a good time strolling the streets of Milwaukee and hearing some of the history. The food samples were delightfully choosen and gave a good sample of the area. I expected a little more social and architechural history to be discussed, but what was presented was done well and was informative. I had lived in the Brady St area for quite a few years and though I still learned some from the tour, I am sure the area offers much more colorful history. I am looking forward to trying the Third Ward tour sometime in the future.

Great information. Loved the history lesson. Maybe it is just me, but would have liked more alcohol. Would have liked a map, along with the listing of locations. So if I wanted to go back to the different restaurants or places, I could have found them easily. A great way to spend an afternoon

Great Mix of Food, History, Community, and Culture

If you love food and love learning about the "real" people who make up a community, then this tour is for you. The tour presents the ins and outs two distinct areas of Milwaukee - from what the buildings used to be to how citizens managed during Prohibition. The tidbits of information are scattered amongst stops at local restaurants. The food is waiting when you arrive and includes many of the local favorites brought to the city by immigrants - homemade pizza, Italian grocery specials, cheese, and beer to name a few. If you'll be in Milwaukee for several days, I recommend the tour at the beginning of your visit. You'll get a good feel for the area and see several places you might want to return. My husband and I both agree that guided tours are the best way to see a city. You don't have to worry about constantly referring to a city map/guide and you don't have to pay attention where you are going. An expert guide leads you and provides more information than you can imagine. Your only responsibility is to take it all in! My appreciation for Milwaukee, its food, and its people increased ten-fold after taking this tour!

Excellent tour and lots of great information!

Thank you so much for the tour. Joe (my honey), Beth( my daughter), Chris (my son-in-law) and I enjoyed the entire evening. You were so pleasant and fun! After the tour ended, we returned to the Brew House, and also went to Tulip for dinner on Thursday night. I have already given my sister and brother-in-law your information and I expect them to arrange a tour in the near future. Sincerely, Jan Greiten

Good concept; tour guide was a little weak
Sat, Jun 20  11:15 AM eluckow Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
The stops made on this tour were well-selected for their unique characteristics and the food was very good. We were disappointed in the tour guide though - during the walk he did not tell us much about the historical aspects of the neighborhoods like we expected. We also thought there would be more history/information given about the actual restaurants/shops we stopped at. Instead, we just stopped for food at each one and had conversation among the other tour participants. When we proactively asked questions, the guide often didn't know the answers to basic questions or provided erroneous information. Overall, the tour was something fun and different to do on a beautiful afternoon but for the cost I would have expected more from the guide.

A Worthwhile Tour
Sat, Jun 20  11:15 AM moritslv Female 20-29 Combination Group of Friends
The food was fantastic and all three of us were definitely full at the end of the tour. The only thing I would have liked is more history about Milwaukee. I almost felt as though I knew more about our tour guide (who did a wonderful job) than I did about the city.

Alfredo, our tour guide, was friendly and knowledgable. The selection of restaurants/delis was good. Thought there would be more food, but in the end of it all was not disappointed.

average, food starchy and not healthy
Wed, Jun 17  1:00 PM MaryLukas Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
I enjoyed the historical information and there were a variety of places that we visited. I would rate the food only average as it seemed to be very starchy (lots of bread things) and not very healthy, but perhaps I shouldn't have expected healthy from a food tour.

Brady St Tour
Sat, Jun 13  11:15 AM jsmerz Male 60-69 Local Group of Friends
We enjoyed the tour very much. Our guide Molly) was enthusiastic and very Knowledgeable. My wife & I don't have large appetites so the smaplings were adequate and tasty. I'm sure we will come down to the pizza place again.. The historical background of the area was very interesting even though we have lived here all our lives. The walk was longer than I thnought it would be but we all made it to the end. Everyone in our group seemed satisfied.

Great way to get to know a city!
Sat, Jun 13  11:15 AM muzzle32 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My boyfriend is moving to Milwaukee in a few months, so we took a trip up there to look for his new apartment and check out the city. I had no idea Milwaukee had such great food! This tour lets you taste a great variety of local food - from pizza to pretzel rolls to Milwaukee wine - and gives you a bit of a lesson on the city's history and neighborhoods. It's all very delicious, and a great way to find all those wonderful local restaurants that you might not otherwise hear about. If you like food, don't mind a long walk, and want to learn about Milwaukee, I highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful afternoon activity!
Fri, Jun 12  11:30 AM Gaelic272 Female 30-39 Local Group of Friends
Our tour guide was an extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic young woman who loves good food (you wouldn't know it from her slight build) and has great pride in her hometown of Milwaukee. It was a beautiful day, she provided all sorts of history along the walk, shared anecdotal stories about various buildings, and took an interest in us as individuals as well. The highlights were the six restaurants that we stopped at along the way, providing a diverse taste of the Third Ward. I would highly recommend this as an activity for a group of friends, a date, or a community group. My friend and I are looking forward to trying the Brady Street walking tour!

A great way to learn more about Milwaukee
Sat, Jun 6  11:15 AM danvbmax Male 30-39 Local Group of Friends
It was great to learn about parts of Milwaukee you would never really have the opportunity to learn about. I have been to Brady Street and Old World third street but to here the history and stop at a bunch of shops and restaurants to learn more and sample food and beverages was great. It is some walking but it is good to walk off some of the food and drink to prepare you for the next place. I highly recommend it.
