| We learned a lot throught the personal interaction of the merchants Diane introduced us to----about the source of the produce, how it is best-prepared at home. Lots of time for questions and sampling. As a local, I was shown "insider" info I'd never seen. We also enjoyed a stroll down 3rd. Street to sample/learn from some of the excellent restaurants. Truly fun, entertaining, and educational! I'll bring my out-of town guests on this tour! |

| This was so much fun! I have done these types of tours in other cities and am so glad that LA has one now. Diane, our guide was very knowledgable and the tastings were a good cross sections of the food at the Farmer's Market. I will definitely recommend this to family and friends, locals and out of towners!! |

| I treated myself to this walking tour as I was unfamiliar with that particular part of town. I am glad I did. A great way to get to know that area with wonderful,knowledgeable tour guides and plenty of sampling along the way and a chance to meet most of the store owners who provided us detailed information on their shops and their products. An unforgettable experience and one that I will do again with friends and family |

| Diane was great and entertaining. It was a nice warm day but no one in our group
seemed to mind. We had a leisurely stroll and visited some nice restaurants. I live in Los Angeles and I wasn't aware that these nice restaurants existed. Considering a comparable San Diego 'foodie' tour is $75.00, this tour was a good value.
When I get some time I will take the Pasadena tour also. |

| When you go to other countries you take their tours to learn more about that region. This is an excellent tour for people who want to learn about their own backyard. I learned a lot and had a fun time tasting all the great food. |

| Loved our guide Diane! She was fabulous and extremely knowledgable. I live in Simi Valley and have never been to the Farmers Market, so this was such a treat for me. All the vendors were courteous and genuinely seemed excited about having us taste their products and hear about their establishments. I would thoroughly recommend this tasting tour to all.
My only draw back to the tasting, was the amount of carbs being tasted ie cookies, donuts, bread, candy etc.... The brazillian bbq was fantastic and the chinese chicken salad from Joans was to die for.
All in all a very, very nice tour....... |
