A first-class tour with a first-class guide! - We LOVED our food tour and we LOVED Noah, our guide. The restaurants chosen for our tour were great and we cannot say enough good things about the food. We have gone on many food tours in many cities, and this tour was at the top. We had a 5– and 7-year old with us and they enjoyed the food as well (especially the ice cream). Noah has lived in the San Diego area for many years. He shared some of the history as we walked to and from our stops. He made some great restaurant recommendations and was so helpful in helping us navigate our remaining time in the city. Noah was also our photographer. He chose some clever backdrops for special memories of this amazing city.

A good tour in the Gaslamp district. - Stephan was a knowledgeable and informative guide. Our small group was the recipient of his humor as well as his recommendations of other local tours and restaurants in the area. After a difficult start at the first tour stop where the electricity went out, Stephan was able to make a quick and effective adjustment at the second location to compensate for the loss. Would highly recommend this food tour to other family and friends.

Great Experience - We had an excellent experience touring with Noah. The food stops were interesting and varied. Plenty to eat but wasn’t overstuffed. His knowledge of the area was great and we learned a lot. We hear they also have an Italian district tour in the works.

Too Gaslight District Food Toor - This tour with Noah was one of the best food tours I have ever participated in. Josh’s historical knowledge of the entire area was an added plus to the five excellent stops. I would highly recommended this tour to anyone visiting San Diego. btw . . . you won’t be hungry when you finish the tour!

A Fantastic Tour of Downtown's Food and History - Our tour with Noah was fantastic! His knowledge of the city really gave us a new appreciation for the Gaslamp and the development of San Diego as a city. The food was fantastic - surprisingly the bagels at the first stop may have been our favorite as the flavors and cream cheese options were such unique pairings. We enjoyed the other stops as well although we liked other taco shops better than the one we stopped at that day. Overall, would definitely recommend this tour!

Great veggie eats and history in San Diego! - We enjoyed the tour with Noah, who shared many tidbits about San Diego history with us. The vegetarian food at each stop was great, and not an afterthought, which I loved! We had done Sidewalk Tours in Manhattan as well, which was wonderful, and hence we sought out the tour in San Diego. Did not disappoint! Chitra

It was fun! - The guide, Sephan, was very knowledgable of the district and had a very cheery personality. The food choices/restaurants made by him and/or the company were worthy, which, in combination with the guide, made the entire tour fun and satisfying. Don't eat before the tour. You'll be quite full by the end!
