This was a sister trip. Our tour guide was “Sprinkle”. Was so so awesome. She knew her history & stuff. Great day!

We had Sprinkle for our tour guide. She was awesome.

Operator response

Thank you, Rhonda! A sister trip sounds like the perfect reason to spend the day with us, and we're so glad Sprinkle made it a great one. She really does know her history, and she has a gift for making it fun. Y'all come back and do it again next time the sisters get together! Thank you for spending your day with us.

A must do in Mobile!

We had a great time with Sparkles, she was very friendly and informative about Mobile's history. I also added the drinks to my tour and all 3 were very good, especially the morning margarita. The food was delicious and enjoyed everyone's company. Highly recommend and go on an empty stomach.

Operator response

Thank you so much! Our tour guides are awesome and informative. That is exactly what they bring to every tour. And that morning margarita has a way of stealing the show, great call adding the drinks. So glad the food and the company made for a great morning. And yes, empty stomach is the way to go, you came prepared! Highly recommend right back at you. Come see us again anytime!

Bienville Bites Food Tour

Excellent food tour with interesting history & little known anecdotes woven in. Bella is a pleasant, professional & extremely knowledgeable tour guide who takes obvious pride in what she does. Food portions were very generous & all good. We enjoyed the variety of offerings. Highly recommend this tour.

Operator response

Thank you for the kind words! Bella is going to love reading this. She really does take pride in what she does, and it shows in those little-known anecdotes she digs up, the stuff you will not find in a guidebook. Generous portions and good variety, that is exactly what we aim for every single tour. Thanks for the recommendation and for spending part of your day with us. Come back and see us anytime!

Deliciously Fantastic

Go hungry. The restaurants and snacks were very generous in their samples. We went to about 5 restaurants and two snack businesses. All worth going back to.

Operator response

"Go hungry" is advice we stand behind one hundred percent! So glad the portions delivered. And we love hearing that the spots are all worth going back to, that is the whole idea. We want you leaving with a list of new favorites to revisit on your own time. Thanks for touring downtown with us, come back and see us anytime!

Thank you! Making everyone feel like part of the group is something Cynthia does so well, whether you came solo or with a crew, you are part of the family by the second stop. New foods and new history while strolling downtown, that is exactly the day we hope to give folks. Thanks for spending it with us, come back and see us anytime!

We had single-portion sized samples from 5+ local restaurants. All of them were unique and delicious.

This was a really fun way to learn about Mobile's history while also enjoying some really good food. I tried my first oyster on this tour, and loved it. We also stopped by some historic sites, like Bienville Park and the Cathedral. There was also a whisper arch we got to try out at an old hotel. Very cool!!

Operator response

Love this! There is something special about watching someone try their first oyster, and the fact that you loved it makes it even better. You hit on something we are proud of too, the tour is not just about the food. The history, Bienville Park, the Cathedral, that whisper arch that always gets people, those are the moments that stick with you long after the last bite. So glad you had a blast. Thanks for exploring downtown with us, come back and see us anytime!

Awesome tour guide with great food!

Cynthia was a fabulous guide & a great historian. We learned so much about Mobile while eating wonderful food. Make this tour the first thing you do in Mobile.

Operator response

Thank you so much! "The first thing you do in Mobile" is a heck of a compliment, and honestly we agree. Get the lay of the land, learn the history, eat some great food, and the rest of your trip makes a lot more sense. Cynthia really is part guide, part historian, and she loves sharing this city. So glad you had a great time. Come back and see us next time you are in town!

Foodie adventure in downtown Mobile

A great way to experience downtown Mobile’s history and food culture in one tour. There were plenty of food stops and more than just appetizers portions. Definitely exceeded expectations and aligned with price points. Cynthia our guide was warm and personable.

Operator response

Thank you for this! We hear "I thought it would just be little appetizer bites" more than you would think, so we love that the portions caught you by surprise. Nobody leaves our tour hungry, that is a promise. Glad it landed right on the value too. Cynthia is a gem, warm and personable is exactly how guests describe her time and again. Thanks for spending part of your downtown day with us, come back and see us anytime!
