My wife and I went on the Taste of the cities tour May 19th to celebrate our 28th anniversary. We had a terrific time touring and tasting around Minneapolis with our tour guide Betsy. Even though my wife and I are natives to the Twin Cities. We learned a lot of new things about the downtown area and it's food... More

I went on a tour on Saturday, April 20 with one of my friends. We met our very energetic tour guide, Betsy, at the LaSalle Plaza to wait for the others on our tour. It was a small tour- 4 people total- which was great because Betsy said her biggest tour has been up to 16 people. It was nice... More

Enjoyed the food and tour thoroughly. I would highly recommend it. A small suggestion to make it even better would be to end the tour where we began. More

Ours was a group of 6, but I think it could easily have accommodated 10 - maybe even a few more. Kevin was a lot of fun and we enjoyed his commentary throughout the walk. He did a great job of keeping us on schedule without being pushy and making us feel rushed. The participating businesses were welcoming and the... More

I really enjoyed the Skyway Food Tour! Kevin was a great tour guide! He gave us some history of the City and pointed out so many special things! The pizza at Crave was, of course, my favorite and our host at CandyLand did a great job telling us about his establishment. I also really enjoyed the food at Hell's Kitchen.... More

I think the cost of the tour was a little on the pricey side, but on par with other food tours, and I'm a budget traveler. That being said, the food was delicious, and the stops seemed well-planned. Both our tour guide and the organizer were very friendly and happy to get to know our group. I would have liked... More

My friends and I had a blast on the Skyway Tour! There was plenty of great food and we learned about local Minnesota restaurants we have not had the chance to eat at. There was also a fun mix of walking and learning about downtown Minneapolis. The tour guide was fun and I am very excited to come back this... More

While I agree with the positive comments on Trip Advisor, I will say it was a disappointment that Cocoa and Fig did not have enough macaroons for the group. In fact they had about 4-6 pistachio and about 12 raspberry. My husband I were happy to share a cupcake and the macaroons but I'm not sure everyone would say the... More

My husband and I took the Skyway Tour after hearing how much our friends enjoyed the Riverwalk Tour last summer. The Skyway Tour was a fun way to start our date night and a great way to meet other people. We enjoyed all of the new food we tried and enjoyed learning about Minneapolis. I would recommend this tour to... More
