Itinerary

Finally, there's a food & culture tour for everyone. Visit local restaurants that feature a diverse menu to please every palate. Our restaurants vary but the quality of the food remains the same. We may visit a Mexican restaurant serving authentic street tacos with fresh guacamole, a Scottish Pub, or enjoy a beautiful salad with a grilled baguette. At Findlay Market, we visit vibrant stalls, owned by local entrepreneurs featuring award-winning chocolate, exclusive vegan eateries, a gelato shop, homemade fudge, savory cheese, or the best banana pudding in town.

Maximize your time on a well-planned and comprehensive tour of downtown. Learn the history, see beautiful architecture, and outdoor murals, and best of all, enjoy dining in top-notch local restaurants. Begin in the city's heart and travel by streetcar through Over the Rhine, the historic German neighborhood. The tour continues to Findlay Market for more local delicacies. Your guide shares the history of Cincinnati, the beautiful architecture, city parks, fountains, museums, and outdoor murals. Be informed and entertained on a Riverside Food Tour.

Begin on Fountain Square and stroll to the entertainment district for two or three sit-down savory dishes. Ride the streetcar to Court Street, a trendy new neighborhood with the latest restaurants in town. Next, ride north, through Over the Rhine, the beautifully restored German neighborhood, and continue to Findlay Market for 3 more lighter tastings. The Streetcar tour combines riding and walking less than .5 miles during the three-hour tour.

The final destination is historic Findlay Market, named by Newsweek magazine as one of the 10 best markets in the world. For first-time visitors, the market can be overwhelming. But, it's fun with an in-person guide at your side. Skip the lines and enjoy 3 more lighter treats from the local market vendors. You may not want to leave. If so, the market is open till 6 pm for your convenience.

Frequently asked questions

Wear casual, weather-appropriate clothing and comfortable shoes. Bring an umbrella if needed, a water bottle for hydration in warm weather, and cash for gratuities or small purchases.
We welcome families with children on all our tours! Since it depends on the child’s age and attention span, we leave it to the parents to decide whether a 3-hour walking/streetcar tour is appropriate for their child. In our experience, children 10 and older, interested in history will enjoy the tour. Children five years and younger are free, but do not receive any food. Parents may share or bring snacks. The streetcar is stroller-friendly. Children ages six and older require a ticket.
Yes, the streetcar is accessible, but due to the distance of the tour, we recommend a motorized wheelchair or scooter. We walk .5 miles in addition to riding the free streetcar.
