Fun and Tasty Tour - Vanessa was a great tour guide. She communicated loudly and clearly even when the city got noisy. She was very pleasant, positive , and knowledgeable. The food stops were tasty and we were all pretty full/satisfied by the end. Overall the tone was fun and we had many laughs with other tour attendees.

Great tour! - This was an interesting food tour of the downtown Houston area. There are a series of tunnels in this area that connect buildings, light rail, and the theatre district that we got to learn about and visit restaurants in the tunnels.

Great tour - Vanessa was a great guide, very knowledgeable and personable, and she even came prepared with rain coats since it was sprinkling throughout the tour. All three places she took us to eat had excellent food, and the variety of food was great as well. I wish we had spent more time in the tunnels, but overall it was a great tour.

All around amazing experience - We just finished the Food Tour of Downtown Houston with Tunnel Access… and WOW. Our tour guide, Vanessa, was so knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. She took the time to not only show us the restaurants, but to show us interesting spots, murals, and historic locations between the restaurants. She provided an experience that only a true Houstonian could. 10/10 tour guide!! The restaurants - also a complete 10/10. It’s hard to pick a favorite. Each restaurant absolutely shined in their individual cuisines (and I say that as a very well traveled “foodie.”) We will surely be revisiting these restaurants to try their other dishes. And don’t get me started on the amount of food that we got. This is NOT a “small bite” tour. This is a “I am going to need a box to take the rest of this food home” tour. Overall, it was an amazing experience. I would recommend this tour to both locals and tourists. You won’t find a better tour in Houston for this price. Just book it!

Food tour in downtown Houston - We had an outstanding time. I thought the food was just the right amount and more than we expected compared to other tours. Im happy we did this food tour with Guide Vanessa, she puts a lot of energy and effort into making sure you understand the food options and each restaurant stop. Each stop was unique and different that the last, we ended up taking the strawberry cheesecake and pasta back to the airBNB with us. Would do this tour again with family members and friends

Great way to spend time with the family. - I am a native Houston who grew up going downtown for everything before the suburbs blew up and I still leaned a ton on this tour. Our tour guide Vanessa was a wealth of knowledge and shared that knowledge so enthusiastically. I left with a reviewed since of pride in my hometown and some great places to eat when in the city. Our last stop had an entrance to the underground tunnel system with a flood door. Interesting and a little eerie. Did you know Houston has the largest underground tunnel system in the US? My boys did not, so we'll be booking the underground tunnel system tour Astroville offers next. Whether you're new to H-town, or an original native like me, book this tour. My family loved it. Great way to spend quality time together.
