Review of: Downtown Houston Bites & Sites Food Tour
Star was incredibly kind and professional. Such a lovely kit with thorough instructions. In this pandemic world we are living in she made the virtual tour very personal.

Review of: Downtown Houston Bites & Sites Food Tour
I booked this food tour as a present for my fiance, not knowing how absolutely incredible it would be. I had been on only one food tour before this, but now I don't know how I'll ever be able to go on another one that could top Star's. Star made our experience fun, personal, and perfect in every aspect. She carefully planned the meals and places so that we would have an array of drinks and cuisines, without being overly stuffed or tipsy! She really fostered community among the group, and personally got to know each member of the group. Star is GREAT at what she does. This food tour will forever be my favorite one, and probably one of my favorite days. Booking another one soon, and gifting them to all the members of my family!!!…

Had an absolutely great time on this tour! I learned a lot about the Historic Market Square area of Houston and local businesses (one of my favorite spots already)! We had our fill of yummy cocktails and food. I would love to do it again and want to try any tour led by Star / Best Bites Houston. Whether you want to be a tourist in your own city for a day and learn something new or are visiting from out of town, I definitely recommend to anyone.…

Review of: Downtown Houston Bites & Sites Food Tour
I've heard so many great things about this tour, I had to experience it myself. Star was incredibly informative and made sure everyone felt included, especially me as I took this tour alone. Not only was she knowledgeable about the restaurants we were tasting at, but also shared facts about the historic buildings around us. After the tour, I fell more in love with my own city. Definitely recommend!!…
