5.00This tour was more thsn what we expected and we love that we were able to support the local businesses at thr same time by purchasing drinks or food items to take back to AZ with us! More than enough food samples to fill you up and really good local restaurant/store choices! One of the best food tours we've been on.

5.00Marie has a real passion for history and the food in this region. I enjoyed eating the selection of food and the history behind it, Marie was a good story teller! We ate Gumbo with potato salad, shrimp po-boys, chicken cracklins, boudin, smoked sausage, smoked oysters (my favorite), alligator and king cake. You will not go away hungry!
Brilliant food tour

5.00Amazing morning in the suburbs with Whitney … this is a class business who know how to look after visitors and are an important part of the community and the Lafayette story. The food was excellent but the story telling and “ joie de vivre” were just as important . I can completely recommend spemding three hours with this company
Entertaining, Informative, and Yummy: A Great Taste of the Culture

5.00My husband and I went on the tour. I'm from Lafayette and learned about food, local businesses, and my own history. Marie was entertaining, informative, and kept us all moving and eating. The restaurants we visited provided yummy bites, and by the end of the tour we couldn't eat any more.
We will be repeat customers!

5.00We did the morning Cajun food tour this weekend and absolutely loved it! The tour included five different stops, and even though we live only about an hour away and have spent a lot of time in the area, we were pleasantly surprised by several places we had never visited before. Every stop offered something unique and delicious, and we truly enjoyed the opportunity to try new foods. One highlight was discovering amazing premade meat products at a local grocery store that we had never tasted before — we’ll definitely be going back for more. It was such a fun and well-organized experience, and we’re already looking forward to booking another tour in the future!
Great time

5.00We have done many food tours around the world - but none in our hometown. We have been wanting to do the Cajun Food Tour and finally had an opportunity. Marie is a great ambassador for everything our Cajun culture represents! Thank you Marie for showcasing some of our favorite spots sprinkled with history and a true passion!
It was so informative and so much fun

5.00Our group loved this Tour so much and Marie did a wonderful job. We will definitely do it again. I’ve lived in Louisiana all of my life, but this was such a great experience. We discovered many wonderful new eating places and will definitely go back to these restaurants and eat some more. Thank you Marie for doing such a wonderful job you made it so much fun.
Treated Like Mardi Gras Royalty!

5.00I find food tours are a great way to get to know the culture of a place. I'll even do a food tour on my return to a foodie town... like I did in Lafayette, Louisiana. Marie was a school teacher, so she knows her Cajun food history...and more. You get the full deal on her tours. The shuttle bus she's decorated is like your own VIP party bus, and she treats you like Mardi Gras royalty! Yes, you'll meet new friends along the way!
