A must if you love your food. - Can’t recommend this tour enough! We visited 8 local businesses and had plenty of samples. Each venue was well picked and Rachel, our tour guide, or the owners explained about the origins of all the food we were tasting.
Rachel also gave us really interesting information about the history of the town. It’s obviously something she loves as she was so enthusiastic which made it all very enjoyable and the time flew by.
We also got a better rate as we booked direct and had a block booking for 7 of us.

Yummy tour in Saffron Walden! - We had a wonderful time on the food tour with Rachel in the beautiful town of Saffron Walden! I would thoroughly recommend it, even if, like me, you are local! ( Our friends weren't). Rachel was a superb guide, telling us lots of interesting stories about the town, and how things had changed over the years. We must have visited 8 different establishments, where we met the owners, and sampled the fare. The food was all delicious, and portions were very very generous! We certainly did not need an evening meal! I would highly recommend this tour! Thank you Rachel!

Fabulous Food Tour - Rachel ran this tour for my parents on their 60th wedding anniversary, taking in the special nature of the occasion and the needs of a couple in their eighties! They absolutely loved all the people and places they visited, and how well they were looked after by Rachel. A great idea for a gift or a treat.

Thoroughly enjoyable way to discover the Saffron Walden foodie scene! - A really fun, sociable and informative experience - even for a relatively local person. The guide (Rachel) is very knowledgeable and full of information about the town's history as well as all the food outlets. Our group tasted its way around about eight places with very different offerings, both in terms of food and ambience. The price was well worth it as everyone was very well fed and I didn't need supper that night let alone any further lunch!!
This would be really fun to do as a group of friends but also a nice way for a solo traveller to eat in friendly company. NB. it's necessary to pre-book, you cant just turn up.

Fabulous food tour! - Rachel's food tour was amazing, we all absolutely loved the different dishes we were served across the many independent eateries in Saffron Walden.
Rachel explained each location in an informative and fun way; we were then greeted by each owner who added more to the narrative.
A unique and fabulous experience. Highly recommended!

Marvellous food tour - Rachel’s food tour around Saffron Walden was amazing. I'm a local and I discovered food venues that I hadn’t known about before. The food was so tasty and I’d thoroughly recommend this food tour to both locals and visitors to our beautiful medieval town.
