Food tour in OTR - Great tour through OTR. The food was delicious and there was enough that we felt full at the end of the tour. Our guide, Jackie, was both informative and great to talk to. We also learned information about this part of Cincinnati that we did not know before.

Being a Tourist in my Own Town - and Loving It! - What a perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon! To begin, Jackie was an excellent guide; she was highly knowledgeable and engaging. Secondly, we stopped at a total of five wonderful spots, which I was not expecting. Lastly, the food was delicious at each of the places. I walked away from the tour feeling full of delicious food and fascinating information.
