What an AWESOME tour! A little bit of everything for anyone looking to take a stroll around San Luis Obispo and sample the best of what the city has to offer. Yule was such a fabulous and interesting guide - I highly recommend you request him for your tour! Will certainly be back when I have visiting friends and family... More

We had a grand day today with this tour! First of all, the weather was perfect today, not too hot, not too cold, so a great day for walking around outside. We started at 11:00 at the Good Earth chocolate place. There were 14 in our group, which was as big as you would want and a little smaller would... More

As I had already experienced the Cambria Wine and Food Pairing that this company offers, I couldn't wait to go on the SLO walking trip. Believe me, I was not disappointed one bit! Jules was an excellent guide, so full of information about the city. She shared many stories and history about SLO, and her wealth of knowledge was impressive.... More

We (family of four, two teenagers) took this tour with Yul while we visited our son in SLO. The tour was fun and included a nice variety of food. We've done several other food tours throughout the States but had never been to a wine bar or olive oil tasting as part of one! Yul was very thougtful to include... More

Yule, our tour leader was excellent, animated and very excited to show us all the wonders of SLO. The stops were interesting and diverse. I especially loved... More

Okay, I KNOW this is a few months late, but I spent quite a bit of time considering the rating I would give Central Coast Food tours. I really hate to be the “bad apple”, but neither my husband nor I had a good time on this tour (and I suspect the other couple who were on the same tour... More

Our daughter attends Cal Poly SLO, which gives my husband and I the excuse to make trips to the Central Coast on a regular basis. When we are in SLO we like to try new restaurants, events, activities, etc. so when we heard about the Central Coast Food Tour we thought we should give it a shot. We are glad... More

Yul, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Do this tour if you have 3 and a half hours to spare. If not, you can always contact them to try and do other arrangements. A good variety of food. Also, you can inform them in advance of any food restrictions or special diets. More of a once in a... More

Wow!, what a great way to learn about the town while enjoying different offerings that are available. The guide was very knowledgable of SLO as well as the different locations, all while taking an enjoyable walk from one destination to the next. The food & drink selections offered were wonderful and delicious. More

A fun and DELICIOUS way to really get to know San Luis Obispo! We walked the city with Yul trying a variety of different types of food, desserts and wine learning about the interesting history of SLO at the same time! In each place, the warm owners welcomed us and explained the tastings. This tour is planned masterfully with so... More
