This tour was amazing! Zach did a fantastic job of not only giving excellent details of all the restaurants on the tour (which were all delicious!) but he included a lot of interesting information about the area of Old Town Scottsdale. They were also very accommodating to my wife’s food allergies and intolerances, some of which I hadn’t mentioned when signing up. Thanks, Zach, for an awesome time, great food and meeting new people! We would HIGHLY recommend this tour….and coming hungry!
Arizona Food Tours exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, this tour was great. Zach was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Scottsdale’s food scene. We explored a fantastic selection of local restaurants, each offering unique and delicious tastings that highlighted the best of the city’s flavors. Not only was the food incredible, but we also learned so much about the history and culture of Scottsdale along the way. The pace was perfect, and the portions were generous—come hungry! Whether you’re a local or visiting, this tour is a must-do. Highly recommend for food lovers looking for a fun and flavorful experience! Will definitely be back for another tour!
Our Progressive Dinner Food Tour with Zach (owner) of Arizona Food Tours this week was exceptional. Having been on many food tours, our visit was fun, enjoyable, included many bits of historical information about Scottsdale. What sets this food tour as exceptional included the obvious collaboration that Zach has earned over the years with each of the food service locations, including one of the owners meeting us at his door. Zach often let our group mingle with the other Food Tour participants and checked back at a comfortable pace to insure we were satisfied. We found the food offerings unique, tasty, and filling. We visited one of the four restaurants the following day. Zack also recommended a few areas (Scottsdale Civic Center) where we went to after our Food Tour. Again, Zach has built a relationship with these food stop location owners & staff...something that makes this specific food tour quite unique.
If you’re looking for a Scottsdale food and drink tour - this is it!!! We absolutely loved our Sips & Sample tour with guide Lindsey! She was incredibly knowledgeable and took us to some spectacular local spots. The food and drinks were AMAZING! We had a spectacular taco and margarita, and then wine and charcuterie and after that we had wine and brussel sprout salad and a meatball and then we finished it off with some of the best gelato I’ve ever had!! Lindsey provided us with great history and informative tidbits throughout. She answered all of our questions and made the tour super interesting and fun. We really really enjoyed this walking tour. Would highly recommend!!!
Did this tour about a month ago with my mom-in-law. We both had an enjoyable, laid back time walking and learning about Scottsdale. Zach was a great tour guide and introduced us to great spots that we would definitely check out again. In fact, we even returned to get gelato with the whole fam, it was so good! Zach also provided a few more recommendations for next time. We love doing food tours when we travel and would highly recommend this one when visiting Scottsdale.
