Chris our tour guide provided a nice balance of Scottsdale Old Town history and the local restaurants information.  The stops to have a taste of the local food was great!

Review: Secret Food Tours Scottsdale

Jeffrey C

Christopher was a top notch tour guide. He was constantly giving us tips on great places to eat and explained the history of the town as well. We ate some delicious treats. Especially liked the Green Chile Cheese Crisp!

We spent a fun day exploring Old Town Scottsdale and several wonderful restaurants with Christopher of Secret Food Tours. Christopher was friendly and professional as our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and was a joy to be around. Even though I have been to Old Town many times, this was the first time I had been to these restaurants. The food and service were excellent. There is plenty of food! You walk from restaurant to restaurant, so please bring comfortable shoes.

Mary Sullivan

"Highly recommend this food tour. You not only get to taste some wonderful food, but you also hear about the history of Old Town. Christopher offers many wonderful food and drink suggestions within the valley, so hit this tour at the beginning of your trip!

I would not do the drink package add on. Tip: you can buy a cocktail on your own at each stop:).

Thank you, Christopher!"

"An Absolutely Fantastic Food Tour with Christopher!
I can’t say enough good things about this walking food tour in Scottsdale! Christopher was an amazing guide who made the entire experience memorable. He has an incredible knowledge of the area’s history and peppered our walk with fascinating fun facts that kept everyone engaged throughout.
What really set Christopher apart was his ability to keep things interesting and his talent for connecting with the group. He could easily converse on so many different topics, making everyone feel included in the conversation. It never felt like a scripted tour - just a wonderful afternoon exploring Scottsdale with someone who genuinely loves what they do.
The food stops were excellent, but honestly, Christopher’s enthusiasm and expertise elevated the whole experience. I’m already planning to tell all my friends about this tour. If you’re in Scottsdale and looking for a great way to explore the food scene while learning about the area, I highly recommend booking this tour - and ask for Christopher if you can"

Charles Ault

Christopher was our tour guide. We really enjoyed his informative words on not only the food but the history of the town. The restaurants were excellent. The food was very very good. I would definitely recommend this food tour. Christopher was especially fun to be with.

"Our only regret is that we didn’t sign up for this Tour earlier in our weeklong visit to Scottsdale. Our guide Christopher was outstanding and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area and was clearly also very passionate and eligible about food. He was a Lance or mini off the cuff questions even about things that weren’t directly related to the content of our tour. There were a few items that were unique to the Arizona food scene as well as several items that were just pretty typical and could be found many different places around the country.
We had a total of about 12 people on our tour, which was maybe a little bit too many but it was still manageable. We walked a total of 6 miles during our four hour tour."

This tour was a great experience!  We should have booked it at the beginning of our stay rather than at the end!  Please don't make that mistake.  Chris has so much valuable information on the local food scene that we could never have known other than on this tour.  We check reviews very closely when we travel, so I felt we were making great choices as far as food goes, but getting the scoop from a local is invaluable and we never would have known about some of the places Chris took us to.  They were low key, with delicious food and really reasonably priced, unlike the majority of Scottsdale eateries.  Also, it was a nice, long tour, 3 hours at least and we were not rushed in any way, which gave us time to spread out our tastings.  Chris gave us a lot of history and background about the city and surrounding areas as well as stories about the local restaurants we went to and others that he recommended for future meals.  The price was well worth it and I highly recommend that you experience this tour.

Excellent selection of stops/food. Christopher was a pleasure and a wealth of local knowledge, history and cuisine.  This was a great experience.

Duane Simon

Christopher was wonderful and had a wealth of knowledge about the Scottsdale area, its history and places to go for both food and entertainment.  I truly enjoyed the entire tour.

Amy Anne
