How long does it take to eat your way through Portland? Saturday we took the Maine Foodie Tour and saw wonderful sights, enjoyed culinary delights and we only scratched the surface. With over 300 restaurants in the city my guess it would take weeks to do the job properly. Our Maine guide, Randy Judkins, did a remarkable job. With charm... More

Our tour guide was a lot of fun, both knowledgeable about the history of Portland and the food we were eating. We tasted a lot of delicious food, including chocolates, lobster, and Shipyard beer. I also enjoyed the long walk through the city of Portland. My only complaint would be that these tours should add some restaurant tastings, if possible.

The Walking Foodie Tour was fantastic. My parents, sister, and husband enjoyed this quite a bit. Pat was our guide, and she was knowledgeable about the city and all the great food featured on the tour. We were fortunate to have a beautiful day to walk around and sample the fare around Portland. Also, Pam, the owner, was very accommodating... More

We live in Portland and this was a great way to spend the morning and learn a few new things about the city. Our guide Chuck was kind and knowledgeable. Only critique is we found the Shipyard guide a bit snarky and not representative of the warm hospitality we received at every other stop.

Our guide was chuck and he was just a nice person and great tour guide. Personable and knowledgable about the area. The tour was fun. We visited all the places other ppl have wrote on here. You're always moving, eating or drinking something. You won't get full but you'll enjoy the morsels of food given out. I would recommend checking... More

What a great way to see Portland and learn why our town is the "foodiest small town" in America. The tour guides are knowledgable, entertaining and personable. And the food is superb. I recommend a tour for any group - business meeting, family reunion, girls weekend, wedding parties, or anyone who loves food and wants to learn more about Maine.... More

I took the walking tour on Sunday and was absolutely delighted. Pat our guide, was very knowledgeable and charming. I learned quite a bit about Portland although I consider myself a local. I was exposed to many different locally made food I have yet to try although I grew up/attended college in the area. If there is one thing I... More

Just had a wonderful time, walking around in the Old Port Portland Maine, learning about the locally grown and prepared food that makes Portland one of the top foodie small cities in the USA. Extremely knowledgeable guide, lots of great things to sample and a splendid November day made this a wonderful experience.

My friends and I were fortunate enough to have a weekend in Portland together and to find a Groupon for this tour just before we headed north. Our tour guide, Pat, was very friendly and knowledgeable. She lives in Portland and clearly takes advantage of it's multiple culinary offerings. We tasted everything from delicious smoked trout, to sweet whoopie pies... More

Great guide and some interesting foods. The tasting sizes are small and there are only 4 places at which we tasted and all were unique. We did go to lunch afterward but we did not expect differently. You could get up close and very personal with a lobster, taste some local cheeses, local blueberry jams and other artisanal products but... More
