This tour was so freaking fantastic! You cannot miss this unique opportunity to explore Nulu and eat so many delicious treats! We explored the city and learned some of the histories of Louisville (the host was very knowledgeable and witty), everything in the tour was timed well and just so fun. I feel like this was 3 tours bundled into one, we saw so many places and ate so much unique to Lousiville food. It was AWESOME!!

Definitely recommend this tour! Go hungry and thirsty because you really fill up! The food was amazing! All local treats we probably would not have found on our own. I love that this tour included food and alcohol all for one price.
The tour guide, Jeremy, was very knowledgeable and great at answering questions and interacting with the group!

Loved this exploration of the interesting and fun neighborhood of NuLu; I was staying right on the border in Butchertown and the meet-up was simple. Learning the history of the city accompanied by some great eats was a wonderful way to start my first full day in Louisville. The food was amazing and served me as both lunch and dinner; I'm still dreaming of the pulled pork "cake" with sorghum. While I didn't drink any alcohol, there was water available and a local soda as well, but for those who wish to sample the more adult beverages there was a nicely balanced sampling. (Unlike another food tour I took in a music mecca *coughnashvillecough* there was nobody getting drunk.)
The pacing was very good and I truly enjoyed the history from the guide, Jeremy. The perfect autumn weather made everything even better, but altogether I would have been happy to do this tour in any weather. Great way to see some of Louisville and taste more than you might otherwise!

So informative about the history of NuLu and AMAZING food stops along the way. Come hungry and wear comfortable shoes and you won’t be sorry! I think I need to make a few return spots for a second helping of everything. 10/10 would recommend for anyone taking a trip to Louisville l.

Delightful and informative stroll through NuLu part of downtown Louisville. Fascinating and funny stories about local foods and the neighborhood. Especially enjoyed the device that enabled me to clearly hear the tour guide even when at the back. Fun to eat as a group and talk about what we are eating!

What a great food (and history) tour! Every stop was not only filling, but interesting and well thought out. I live in Louisville and walked away full and with stories I never knew about the area. Would definitely encourage visitors to take this tour.

The tour was informative. We really enjoyed Biscuits and Belly and the pulled pork cake at Feast! If you have time, want good food, and a bit of history, then take this tour!

My little sister is 12, but we would like for her to come as well. Does this tour allow children?

There are no issues for a 12-year-old to be involved in this Food Tour as long she is open to trying new foods. There will be some alcohol on this tour but it won't serve her. There are no bars involved in this tour. So it will be fine.
