We would rate this Food Tour a 5+. We have taken 29 Food tours across Europe and here in America and would rate this one of the best. The food selection was excellent. Taylor provided a wealth of information about the area throughout the tour and worked hard to make sure everybody was having a great time. As a local you could tell she took a lot of pride in her home city. Highly recommend this tour to anybody visiting Memphis.
Great way to experience Memphis
