Great food and Cemetery Tour! - Delaney was a great guide! The tour ended up just being my partner and I, which was really nice to keep the whole experience at our pace and to dive deeper into the history aspects we had questions about. Great food, and a great history lesson, ending with some recommendations of neighborhoods and places to check out on the rest of our trip.

A “must do” Atlanta experience - This was an excellent tour. Kristen was an outstanding tour guide — balancing a deeply rooted understanding of the history around us with a light and entertaining style. …. The food tastings were plentiful, varied and very tasty. We have already recommended the tour to friends and family. Well worth the expense. An Atlanta “must do” for visitors.

Joy was the guide for our... - Joy was the guide for our tour. She was wonderful and knowledgeable as she told us about Atlanta's history. She explained how food was integral to its past. We stopped at two wonderful restaurants where we enjoyed fried catfish, okra, parmesan bites and pork belly toast. Everything was delicious. We toured Oakland Cemetery, saw beautiful gravestone architecture and learned about some of Atlanta's famous past individuals. Joy made the tour interesting and engaging. We absolutely loved her and thoroughly enjoyed the tour!

A perfect food tour with a southern flare - This is a great tour to learn a little about Atlanta, Oakland cemetery, and experience some really great food. Courtney, our guide, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and provided a great theatrical twist. My wife and I are native Atlantans and learned a bit about our city and enjoyed some local food as well. A must do if you have a few hours.

Atlanta Food and Cemetery Tour unhappy - This was not the advertised 2.5 tour and the food tastings were less in number than advertised. It was alittle over 2 hours and 6 tastings...not 8-9 as we were told. The last stop at a renown bakery and we were given 2 kinds of cookies in a bag "to go" and abruptly dismissed.
