Great eats in Bar Harbor! - Randy was an excellent tour guide! We loved his energy and friendliness! It was nice to check out some places and foods you might not necessarily think to try when visiting Bar Harbor. Everything we ate was tasty and we enjoyed walking the town en route to each destination. If you enjoy good food and good scenery, highly recommend checking out this tour!

So much good food! - First of all I’ve been on half a dozen other food tours and in comparison this was a lot of food! Come hungry! We didn’t eat dinner that night because we were still full! We enjoyed our tour guide Renee as she provided history of the area as well as suggestions for eateries other than those we tasted on the actual tour. We enjoyed a blueberry soda, a lobster roll slider, blueberry cake, the most delicious crab cake, half an Italian sandwich served with chips, olive oil & balsamic vinegar tasting where we received a gift of a small bottle of either vinegar or olive oil and ended with ice cream. The tour was 3 hours and primarily places near the village green. I would definitely recommend this tour for folks new to the area!

Food and more in Bar Harbor - Renee was an excellent guide. We were not expecting so much information about Bar Harbor and Maine. The food was amazing and diverse. I think I would eliminate the olive oil tasting, but that’s just me.

Wonderful Culinary experience - What an amazing experience. My daughter and I chose this tour because we are both Foodies! Not only was the food delicious but our guide was full of wonderful information from "Hello!" The history of the area, the stroll, the snacks....all were well thought out and carried out professionally by her. As soon as we were done, she made sure we had all our questions answered and she was gone. We are very satisfied with this experience.

Worthwhile - The portions were too large overall, since it was supposed to be a tasting. There wasn’t enough interesting historical facts.
