Great way to see the city! - We had so much fun on this tour. We met the guide downtown, then spent three hours driving around Portland eating food. The perfect start to our vacation in Portland, and highly recommended.

Great Experience - The food carts we visited had excellent food, and each pod had it's own unique history and personality. Just like the neighborhoods, very interesting to get insights on how they got established and evolved. Alexis was a fantastic tour guide.

Most Fun Way to See a New City! - My family and I had a wonderful experience with Pat! She is knowledgeable about so many aspects of the city (and much more!) and she’s so much fun! Each place we visited had delicious food but the cookie pie at the Gypsy pdx was the most memorable - last meal worthy! We highly recommend this tour. Every detail was easy from booking to finding Pat! Can’t say enough good stuff about this tour!!!

Quick, easy, so informative - we got into town and wanted a quick overview and some ideas on local spots to visit. This tour was perfect. Our guide Alexis was well informed and went above and beyond. I left with a full belly of delicious bites and local brews, an overflowing list of places to check out and a great idea of the layout of the city and neighborhoods. A great tour that gets to the point. Feels like a friend from town took us around to show us the area :)

Groom time with great food! - We had so much fun on this tour. Pat, our tour guide, made the tour fun and informative. We learned a lot about the culture and neighborhoods that we drove through. We did this tour on our first day in Portland and I’m so glad we did. We were able to see a lot of the city and went back to a few of the food pods and ate the next few days. It’s a perfect day to see the city and make new friends!

Pat is the best - I've done a lot of food tours all over the world and this tour is one of the best I've done. Pat our guide is very knowledgeable and a real food lover. The carts chosen are such a good representation of the Portland Food scene! 10/10 would do again!

Lively and Delicious Tour - This small group tour (we had 13 people in ours) of Portland’s food carts in four different neighborhoods was an exceptional taste of not only delicious food sampled at a variety of food carts, but also an opportunity to see and learn about the many diverse yet fascinating neighborhoods of Portland. Alexis, our charming, personable guide had lots of stories and information to share, and at each stop we sampled food she had previously ordered. The van was comfortable and the 3-hour tour from 11:00-2:00 was just the right amount of time. I highly recommend this tour if you want a literal and virtual taste of Portland! Kudos to Alexis for a wonderful experience!
