Another Great Walking Food Tour
DonM217, Sept 2025
We have done walking food tours with Secret Food Tours in two other cities and we were excited to find they offered tours in San Antonio. We expected to have another great tour and we were NOT disappointed. Our guide was Scott. Scott was an excellent and enthusiastic guide who loved sharing his knowledge of his hometown of San Antonio and the food we were eating. From cultural tidbits about each of the 5 establishments in which we were eating to sights we encountered between stops, he was both informative and funny. The tastings were excellent and we were quite full by the end. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and wholeheartedly recommend it.

Fantastic for Foodies!
L170UGtoddw, Sept 2025
Very enjoyable walking tour of San Antonio, punctuated by great local food. Our guide, Scott, is a local with lifelong knowledge and an obvious love for the city and its culinary history. He was personable and engaging and made sure that we had all of our questions answered and provided great ongoing narration as we traversed the city, going from one place to the next. Scott also covers a lot of Texas and San Antonio history. All of the food was awesome but the highlight for me was the burger, and for my wife was the mango gelato. If food is more to you than fuel to live and you are in San Antonio you should definitely take this tour. Highly recommended.
