We took to Dupont Circle Food Tour, and I loved the food in the neighborhood. We went to 4 places: Malaysia Kopitiam (Appetizer samplers), Crios (Dr. Pepper Carnitas Tacos), Scion (Scallops), and Agora (Greek dishes and dessert). Overall it was great food, but I am allergic to nuts and my husband only eats fish and though they could accommodate in... More

What an exciting and fun way to explore Georgetown! It was our first time to experience a food tour in the States and it certainly won't be the last. We had a wonderful relaxing afternoon exploring Georgetown with our tour leader Christian. Christian was extremely informative and knowledgeable throughout the tour. It was a wonderful way to learn all about... More

With Christian leading our small group of four, we had an informative and tastey sampling of Georgetown, learning many historical tidbits between bites. Our first stop at Cafe La Ruche was delightful. The owner was personable and accessible, first describing the history of the restaraunt and then the food we were about to sample; talapia topped with the interesting combination... More

Our group loved every minute of its tour of the Eastern Market. We learned a lot about the market's history and the tastings from the vendors were fantastic. We were stuffed! We will do a tour of another neighborhood soon!

We did the food tour in Georgetown and really enjoyed it. Robert was our tour guide. He was professional, articulate and did a great job at explaining what type of food we would be tasting. We tried a variety of great food and covered a lot of Georgetown in a small amount of town. We also learned a lot about... More

I was really excited to find out about DC Metro Food Tours after having done a tour in another city earlier this year. We picked Georgetown basically because it fit our schedule and didn't seem to be heavy on fish/seafood (which one member of our party does not eat). The first thing that struck us was the fact that I... More

I've been on food tours in other cities and found them to be a great way to get to know the city and enjoy some local cuisine. However I found this tour to be lacking in substance. It seemed as if there were no rhyme or reason why the restaurants we stopped or visited were chosen for the tour. Our... More

The food tour was amazing! They were able to accomodate a small group and a dairy allergy! Pam was so informative and so enthusiastic about her neighborhood. It was contagious. Loved it! The food, the company, the tour, the atmosphere in the restaurants - all of it!

There was definitely a lot of food on the tour. I'm not a dainty eater, but found myself somewhat too full by the end. The food we got to try was generally good, very little of it was spectacular or unique to Washington / Georgetown. The tour itself was OK. I would have wanted to walk more and to hear... More

Our tour guide Leah shared great stories about Dupont Circle, some key people who lived there and the overall structure of DC (Dupont Circle was our tour choice). We went to 4 restaurants, all were waiting for us with some great, and delicious food choices. She talked about the food and the restaurants. There were 12 in our group and... More
