    Great tour! We sampled a variety of local foods. We learned some interesting history. Perfect start of our vacation :)

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Enjoy the rest of your New England tour!

    Great way to sample the local food scene and learn about the history

    Natalie_S, Sep 2026
    Cameron was a great guide who walked us in areas we otherwise wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We had some amazing foods, unique to this area. No need to schedule a dinner before or after this tour, as this will count as dinner. During the tour, Cameron offers many details into the history of Providence.

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    You guys were awesome! Thanks for coming along, I'm glad you enjoyed the food and our fun little city :)

    Exceptional!!! Do it!!!

    Suzanne_M, Sep 2026
    I have taken Viator tours in Europe, South America, Canada and the United States. This is hands down the best tour I’ve been on and Cameron is an Exceptional tour guide. This is a fantastic food tour! This is a fantastic history tour! Book this on your first day in Providence. You won’t be sorry!

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Oh my goodness, Suzanne! What high praise! I'm so delighted that you all had an amazing time. If you ever find yourselves back in Rhode Island, try out our other International Fox Point tour. You & Allen were terrific, thanks for checking us out :)

    Take this food tour

    Annette_S, Sep 2026
    This was a great tour. Cameron, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and thorough in sharing the history of Rhode Island. And, that great information was interspersed with stops at several iconic restaurants for a taste of Rhode Island. Each stop offered unique and local flavors and all restaurants were loved by locals. I highly recommend this tour.

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Woohoo!! Thanks for coming along Annette! Hope we helped make State #50 a memorable experience for you.

    Great food tour with Cameron

    Maureen_H, Sep 2026
    Cameron was an interesting tour guide and he chose some great food stops, all of which were locally owned. The lobster roll was the best we’ve ever eaten, the sandwich shop was incredible, and the unusual pizza selection was a hit with us. Despite the rain, it was a very enjoyable day and well-worth the cost.

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Thanks for braving the rain with us folks! It was a pleasure to have you on the tour, glad to hear you had a great time :)

    AMAZING Tour With Delicious Food!

    Dean_M, Aug 2026

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Hearty portions from a Texan is high praise! Thank you both for coming along, hope you enjoyed your stay in RI

    Cameron was very helpful...

    DON_N, Aug 2026
    Cameron was very helpful and understanding. When our flight was canceled, he helped us make arrangements. Highly recommend!

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Hi Don, I was so sorry to hear your flight was cancelled! Please reach out if you're ever back in Providence; we'd be happy to give you a discount if you want to try taking the tour again.

    Great for couples and families with foodie children.

    Tricia_L, Aug 2026
    Cameron was an amazing tour guide. He made the experience a wonderful one for our family including our 10 year old even though it was incredibly hot out! The food stops were amazing and we left with full bellies and new Rhode Island knowledge. We highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Happy to meet you all! Thanks for braving the heat with me. Glad you had a great tour and enjoy the rest of your stay in RI! :)

    Wonderful tour, wonderful company.

    Brenda_E, Jul 2026
    Wow, this is an incredible evening of amazing food AND mostly accurate history! Cameron was funny and engaging, and brought to life the history of Providence as we worked our way through some incredible stops for tasty treats. I left with a full belly and a great understanding of the people behind the many shifts in the beautiful city’s past. In addition, he was incredibly helpful with everything from parking suggestions to ideas for future adventures. Wonderful tour, wonderful company.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    It was so great meeting you both! I'm glad I could show you a delicious and entertaining evening in our wonderful city (and even doubly excited that you were able to find the Rhode Island troll after the tour!)
