“A few years ago, I was in portland with my family and we had booked this tour. Unfortunately, I was ill the day of this tour and had to head back to my hotel after the first stop. Fast forward a couple years and I'm back in portland solo and I knew I had to book this tour and exorcise some food demons. Glad I did, this was a fantastic tour with great stops. Ive been on many a food tour and I always love when I am taken to places that I wouldn't have ventured into on my own. My favorite stop was Khao Moo Dang with its delicious…”
Downtown Portland food carts, Thai and Chinese classics, chocolate, shave ice, and local drinks. Small group, guided by David. $128.
“I love a good food tour when traveling to new cities and this one was GREAT. David was such a fantastic guide - informative, funny, full of anecdotes and fun facts, personable with each person in the group, and definitely in the know with all things delicious in Portland. What really surprised me was how much more than a food tour this was. While we got to eat a variety of unique eats, in true educator form, David provided such rich information about the city, from its origins to now. The tour covered more ground and provided more food than I expected so I highly recommend coming (extremely) hungry and…”
A 2-hour Old Port donut walk in Portland, Maine with six warm samples, coastal history, and quick line-free stops.
“Our family really enjoyed this tour. It was well paced, great to walk around on a pretty day and learn about history of Portland with points of interest. We loved the donut samples and Kris was very generous with portions. All sanitary and safety measures (gloves, hand sani) were followed (saw a few earlier reviews mention this). He shared great history and lobstering industry knowledge. It was really interesting and a great way to see Portland- along with history of the donut. We highly recommend this tour!”

Small-group Willamette Valley wine day trip from Portland with a driver, scenic drive, three wineries, and guide-led tastings.
“This was hands down my favorite thing to do while visiting Portland. Hathum (not sure about spelling) was our tour guide. He couldn't have been more personable and talkative. Hathum kept us laughing and enjoying the entire experience. Never a dull moment! He knew SO much about the Portland area and wine valley. The wineries were all amazing! The tastings were definitely enough to get us feeling good. By the end of the tour, I was convinced to come back and visit Portland again.”

Taste Portland downtown on a 3-hour walking food tour with Side Dish Mafia, guided by a local comedian, plus history and signature cart eats.
“This was a fantastic tour run by a funny, engaging plucky local. His passion for food and the food scene in Portland radiates throughout the tour. He takes you to the best food trucks and shows you what is special about them. He partners with one of the best chocolate shops I have visited in the world (and I travel a lot). This is the first place I've eaten dark chocolate and liked it. He knows the history of the city and shares it with you. And at the end he askes you to pick your favorite item and it's impossible to choose because everything on the tour was truly…”
