Tricia was an excellent guide. I loved the passion she has for small businesses and her knowledge of the city’s history. Restaurants & food choices were excellent. It was a great day!
Excellent food tour. Most food I’ve every had on a tour. Full portions and a variety of taste. In addition, a bit of history to entertain and learn.
It was absolutely wonderful! We learned a lot about Fort Collins history which was quite fascinating. The 5 restaurants picked for the tour were really interesting and the staff were all so welcoming.
I go on many food tours and Tricia gives one of the best I have seen and tasted. She offered food choices to please all of us. We especially appreciated that at each stop Tricia had arranged for the owner or manager to come out personally and tell us about their business. Fascinating stories and very inspiring. We are new to Fort Collins and this tour was a great into to a great city. Would do it again and highly recommend you take this tour!
Great way to enjoy the variety of food in Ft. Collins. Tricia was very knowledgeable about the town and the food was amazing. Loved hearing from variety of restaurant owners and/or chefs. Come hungry!

She injected interesting tidbits of Fort Collins history as we walked from one eatery to the next. I have enthusiastically recommended the Old Town Food Tour to several close friends and look forward to taking this tour again.

We truly appreciate your enthusiastic recommendations to friends—word of mouth means everything to small, local tours like ours. We look forward to welcoming you back for another delicious afternoon in Old Town.
Be sure to be hungry when you go on this tour because you're sure to be exceedingly full at the end. Our guide was delightful, and you could tell she really loved her city. The variety of food was excellent, as was the quality. We loved the tour because it exposed us to places we probably wouldn't have found or visited on our own.

This was such a fun tour. It was our first food tour and we wondered if it was silly to do in our home area. Turns out it was a great way to be introduced to a variety of restaurants that have been here awhile and ones that now we want to go back to! Tricia was a great host - knowledgeable about the area, and obviously has a great relationship with the restaurant owners to provide a unique experience. Definitely recommend!

This food tour was fabulous! Tricia was such a fun and informative guide. We tried an interesting variety of locally owned restaurants. Everything was delicious! My 14 year old son even enjoyed. Highly recommend!!
Trish is great! It ended up being just me and my daughter, so we had a private tour. I’m actually glad it ended up being this way. We had so much fun joking around and getting to know each other. 10/10 would recommend.

We had a great time on this tour. Tricia was an excellent tour guide. She was funny and very informative on Old Town history. The five places we stopped at for food and drink were excellent with great food variety. We’d recommend the drink option. Our party of four all really loved this tour and will definitely go again as the restaurants offered change.

It’s our goal to leave everyone satisfied (and maybe even with a few tasty leftovers!), so hearing that you felt well-fed and welcomed means the world.

Tricia did a fabulous job of picking the local establishments for us to learn about history of Fort Collins and the historical buildings.
The restaurants that we visited had such unique and tasty food. I highly recommend this fun filled tour. We went to four restaurants and a hot sauce shop. Easy and walkable. They can accommodate a group up to eight. You can’t miss this fabulous experience with a knowledgeable, professional guide and your friends and family.

Thanks so much for the incredible review! 🥰 We're thrilled you enjoyed the unique flavors and rich history Fort Collins has to offer—it’s such a treat to share these stories (and bites!) with curious and adventurous guests like you. Tricia will be so happy to hear she made the tour special. We love keeping things easy, walkable, and packed with local flavor. Can’t wait to welcome you—and your whole crew—again soon!
Tricia, our guide, was a delight. She was kind, informative, and funny. She picked wonderful stops and the proprietors of each were very interactive. Loved this tour. Highly recommend!!
Be prepared for a bit of walking and a lot of good eating. We didn’t take notes of the 5 places we ate at so when we went back the next day to try a couple again, we had to really wrack our brains.
Come hungry, don’t have a big lunch, and don’t try to eat everything they give you. Pace yourself.
Tricia was great at explaining things, like the history of the restaurants and of the area. We would do the tour again next time we’re in Fort Collins.
Wonderful experience. The food choices were amazing and yummy. Our host was spectacular sharing lots of interesting history and stories about local places. I would not hesitate to book with this tour group again.
This is an excellent experience. Our tour guide was very personable and knowledgeable. She shared information about Fort Collins with us as we walked between venues that brought out a better understanding of this wonderful city. It was clear that she has strong positive relationships with all of the chefs and staff at the places we visited. The food was excellent and plentiful. We were so full by the end of the tour that we did not need anything to eat until the next day.
Amazing food your. There were 8 of us and everyone loved it! We do them all the time but this one was definitely one of the best. Food was incredibly tasty and VERY plentiful so pace yourself. They actually box up leftovers if you want them!!
A great variety of foods, not too long of a walk, and a balanced mix of tasting and local history. Tricia was a lovely guide!
Really enjoyed the popcorn shrimp and pretty much everything at the still whiskey. Didn’t eat one bad and our guide was super knowledgeable about Fort Collins history which added a nice touch to the tour.
I have traveled to Ft. Collins several times on business. Tricia took us to several places I was unfamiliar with around town. The food and history were great! The merchants were all friendly and welcoming. I will return to the establishments we ate at because of the tour. I enthusiastically recommend this tour!
We so enjoyed this tour! Tricia was a wonderful tour guide. Her knowledge of the area was delightful. I am a Fort Collins resident and I will do this tour again. This is the best food tour I have taken. Thank you so much Tricia.
Spent a great afternoon with Trisha showing us around Ft Collins. Went to some very fun places and sampled some great unique foods. If you do this tour, make sure you go hungry! We were all beyond full when we got done! Thank you for a great afternoon and showing us around town!
We were lucky enough to get a private tour with Tricia. She was delightful and full of interesting Ft. Collins information. The food was amazing, wonderful range, and plentiful! Take this tour hungry!
