Great Food Tour

"Joined family from out of town on this food tour of Old Town Alexandria. We benefited from great weather--perfect for the experience--and had enjoyable walk through old town. Stopping at five sites for food/beverage (good beer in my case!), and hearing about the history of many interesting sites such as Christchurch, Carlyle House, Torpedo Factory, etc. It's a great way to introduce yourself to a city or to enjoy time with family. Great job by the guide Zach as well; informative and engaging. I'll look into other DC Food Tour experiences."

Delightful day learning about Alexandria and sampling a really delicious variety of food!

"We truly enjoyed our tour with Mary! As we walked around Old Town, we learned a lot of interesting info about the history of the area, and of each restaurant that we visited. The food tastings were quite varied and each was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the Meggrolls and the breakfast biscuit, and the gourmet deviled eggs and....really everything. This would be a great experience for visitors to DC as well as folks who live there."

Our favorite food stops were the fried chicken and waffles and the deviled eggs. Mary was such a fun tour guide and helped make the food and city come alive. I would recommend this to anyone- you can’t miss this experience!"
