Amazing food tour! - Christine was amazing. The tasting dishes she planned with the restaurants were very complimentary and delicious. She provided so much information about Sarasota I wouldn’t have otherwise known. Can’t wait to come back and visit other places she recommended.

A highlight of our visit - Kelley is amazing. We’ve been on a number of food tours over the years, always with Viator, and all have been good.
Kelley is a particularly good guide. And the historic photos she shows you corresponding with where you are add so much. She tells you such interesting stuff but not too much. The perfect amount. And her recommendations for restaurants for another day were terrific. Kelley is a real gem and made this event great for my husband and I, as well as my son and daughter in law visiting from Alaska. It was a highlight of our time together! Patty

Great food - We had a great time on this tour. Kelley our guide was very knowledgeable about the area. We got a lot of history of the area and she had great old pictures on her iPad to share with us. The restaurants we visited were all great. She also gave other recommendations for other restaurants to try. I would definitely recommend this tour.

A must for your Sarasota visit! - We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Sarasota. You will learn some great history of the city, eat good food, drinks and we had a wonderful experience with the Christmas tree lighting as a bonus. Our tour guide Christine was wonderful and a wealth of knowledge.

Excellent food tour! - Christine was an excellent tour guide! She was knowledgeable and fun! She shared stories of local folklore, restaurant recommendations, and must visit places only a Sarasota local would know. The food stops were also good, we specifically enjoyed the Asian fusion restaurant. We even stopped by a hotel rooftop and got to enjoy the beautiful Sarasota views! We’ve done multiple international food tours and this was by far one of the best. Thank you, Christine!
