If you want to truly experience the heart and soul of Chester you need to book this food tour immediately. Our guide, Steph, was phenomenal. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable about the local culinary scene, but she also shared fascinating stories about the history of the areas we walked through. It felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a deeply passionate local friend. Everything we tasted was incredible. We visited some local spots that we never would have discovered on our own. The tour was perfectly timed. We never felt rushed. This tour offers the perfect blend of amazing food, rich history, and great company. It is worth every single penny. Thank you to again to Steph for an unforgettable afternoon. We will absolutely be recommending this tour to everyone we know!

My husband and I have been on a number of food tours, and this was definitely one of the best. Steph was an amazing guide. She reached out before the tour to confirm if we had any dietary requirements and if we drank alcohol. I really appreciated this, as I don't drink alcohol. As it happens we were the only ones booked on the tour. I love the fact Steph still did the tour with just the two of us; we've previously had guides cancel on us because they didn't have enough people booked on. It was a great mix of delicious food and visiting fab sites around Chester. Every place we eat at was great and really welcoming. They were all proud of their offerings, as they rightly should be - championing local produce. It was a great way to try places I'm not sure we would have necessarily found on our own.

I wasn't certain exactly how this would go and so it far exceeded expectations. The cost of the experience was most reasonable considering the value it provided. Not only was it like a tapas meal on the go, but it was an educational tour also, taking in some delightful eateries / restaurants / pubs whilst listening to facts about Chester as we roamed the city. The food offerings were all different to cater for all tastes, all of a sensible size to sample the tastes of each venue whilst not filling you up so you could continue the tour, little and ofen, but no too little, a reasonable taster in each venue. Teh venue's greeted us with a welcome smile and bought food to us in a timely manner, no long waits at all. Our guide, Steph, was very good at making us all feel comfortable ensuring we were having a good time on the tour, involving all in conversation so that at the end of the tour you felt you had spent a couple of hours or so with friends. I would recommend this tour if you want a gentle amble in the city, you'll taste some delicious food and your guide will be great company as they tell you stories and facts relating to Chester.
