What walking tour guests say
Had a great time on the Riverside food tour. We learned a lot about the area, the food we were tasting, and local Cinci history. The three hour tour went by in a flash! Would definately do this again or try one of their other tours. Good Times!
What a wonderful tour. It was so insightful We heard much about the background and history of many Cincinnati well known and not so well known places. Fun! Informative! Perfectly paced!
My fiancée and I did the Mainstrasse Village Food Tour with Mike and had a great time! Mike was very knowledgeable, and even as locals, we learned many new things about our city!
