Rebecca was a great guide
Rebecca was a great guide. I love secret food tours because the guides go the extra mile. The food is always excellent and there’s often a token of appreciation. For instance, on this tour, we were given a good luck charm. Highly recommend these guys.

Secret Food Tours rips off local tour…
Secret Food Tours rips off local tour operators. They are a global entity that profits off of invading new cities, duplicating the so-called "mom and pop" food tours, which were painstakingly developed by actual locals with an actual understanding of the local food culture. They then undercut the price of the original concept, which doesn't benefit anyone: the suppliers (restaurants) get ripped off, the guides are paid less, and the customers receive less food and less quality. You get what you pay for.

Hi Angela, thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’d like to give you some context about how our tours are created and operated. Secret Food Tours partners with local guides in every city we’re in. These guides are people who live in the area, know the food scene personally, and build their tours around local culture, history, and traditions. Our focus is on highlighting authentic food experiences that showcase the unique character of each city.
Guests often share in their reviews that they enjoy the variety and quality of the food tastings, as well as the knowledge and storytelling provided by their guide. We make sure the venues and food businesses we visit benefit from our collaboration, and we’ve built long-term relationships with many of them.
Our tours are designed to offer good value and provide travelers with a meaningful experience. The heart of what we do is connecting guests with local communities through food, and we’re proud of the positive feedback we regularly receive from both guests and local partners.
Still, we do appreciate your perspective and will continue to stay focused on delivering food tours that celebrate the cities and neighborhoods we’re part of.

Excellent food tour
We had Eric as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. Even our 12 year old enjoyed the tour. There was a very good variety of food which was very tasty and good quality. The tour of the neighborhood was also quite educational and there was a fun jeopardy game at the end. Highly recommend. Will try the Jean-Talon & Little Italy food tour next.

I had an amazing time on the Secret Food Tour in Chicago with Mike as our guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and made the whole experience feel personal and engaging. The food stops were delicious and gave a real taste of the city’s history and culture. Mike’s enthusiasm and storytelling really brought everything to life—I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chicago!
