The Cajun food bus experience was the most rewarding experience I have had on my travels in years. Every restaurant we ate at was extraordinary and I was able to cross off one of my bucket list items. My friend crossed off two bucket list items. And II would definitely recommend this to others and do it again!!

This 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.

All the different flavors of Cajun foods and at every restaurant and even the desert shop we visited was very good and a learning experience I won’t forget! In addition, the tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the culture of Cajun Louisiana food.

The Cajun Tour was the Highlight of our week in Lafayette. We absolutely loved doing this tour and would recommend it to ANYONE who wants to experience Lafayette . Our guide Marie was brilliant - super friendly, helpful, considerate and extremely knowledgeable - educating us not only on the food element but about The city in general. She took us around 5 different establishments - a meat/boudin market, 2 cajun restaurants, a crawfish restaurant and a bakery. We had a perfect mix of tasting different foods at the market but then also a few chances to sit down in the restaurant areas and enjoy larger tasting dishes. The description says that you don't get "lunch", just tastings, which is true but you will definitely come away feeling VERY full from all the food provided. The transportation bus has the “ party bus” feel, with fun and vibrant interior complete with Zydeco music playing. We were extremely lucky to get the opportunity to see a behind the scenes area of a crawfish boil restaurant and get to eat fresh out of the pot huge crawfish. Thank you again Marie- we wouldn't have wanted anybody else to show us around! I can’t wait to do it again next time we’re in Lafayette.

We visit the Lafayette area regularly since we have family there. This experience brought us to eateries that we’ve never experienced. All had wonderful food and atmosphere. The tour director was also wonderful. He has so much knowledge of the history and culture that makes Lafayette so special. We will pass this experience on to our friends and family. Thank you Viator !!
