5 Star Food Tour!!

I booked this food tour for my family for mother's day. My mother, brother and sister in law have never done a food tour before. I thought this woukd be a great way to get them stated with food tours. They loved learning the history of york and the food choices were amazing. The portion sizes were perfect to were we won't too full to finish everything. I am pregnant and still enjoyed walking around york and the food options were farm to table which I loved. It did rain the whole time but the guide Missy did a great job making sure we had enough time to dry off at each place before going back out into the rain. The group got to meet the owners of some of the restaurant which was an amazing experience as some food tours we have been on we dont get to met them and hear their store behind their restaurant. It made the tour more personable! I definitely will be booking another tour with Missy for another season to see what restaurants she does this time.

Birthday Food Tour

The tour was great and well thought out by the guide. It turned out to be just 2 of us on the tour which was even better because we got a personalized experience. It was my girlfriends birthday and the tour guide made sure to make it special and had a birthday sash/crown and gifts. You can tell she really love what she does and really makes it special. I appreciated both the history side of the tour as well as getting to try some great food. I would recommend!

Awesome tour!

Had the best time on this tour! Missy was an excellent guide and so full of information. We loved the food - there was plenty of it! Having all of the owners of the establishments come talk to us was a definite bonus. The variety of food was great and the vendors were so friendly! It was amazing all the way around and something we would definitely do again! You won't be disappointed!

Best walking tour in South Central PA

Best walking tour in South Central PA! I was expecting great food which we had, but I wasn't expecting all the local history provided by our guide Missy. In addition to eating and drinking tasty foods and treats, we heard from the owners/managers of the eateries. That was cool. Hearing their stories and learning about how passionate they are was really impactful. This was an incredible experience. Would do it again...and again...and again...

Entertaining, Informative , FUN

Taste 2 Tour proved to be an entertaining, informative & fun afternoon in the York City downtown area. Missy led our group from Central Market to various stops around the area providing an interesting history of events and architecture while also visiting some of York’s finer dining establishments. The food sampling at each stop provided an excellent representation of the diverse menu and gourmet offerings of this city. The tour satisfied my historical curiosity , my tastebuds and my appetite. I highly recommend this tour to out of town visitors as well as area residents to become familiar with the desirable and diverse eating establishments in this easily walkable area of the city. Everyone in our group expressed that Missy and her team went above and beyond to ensure a fun afternoon for all participants. I look forward to another tour as well as revisiting the businesses , on my own, to further sample their menu offerings.

Experience much of Downtown York has to offer with Taste2Tour

This tour was so much fun! Missy is a super host and she had two other helpers who added another level of enjoyment. It was a fantastic way to visit 7 Restaurants and taste their food. Honestly, not one disappointed us. You will be stuffed,, but it is too tasty to leave any. Although the restaurants were willing to wrap it to go. I didn’t bring much home! I loved the history part of the tour! York City is very old but well preserved. It played an important role in history. The buildings are so unique and Missy pointed out features I had never noticed before. She also gave us tips on visiting sites, such as the Colonial Courthouse that is sometimes open to the public. She advised us to google Downtown York and discover what it offers to visitors. There was a couple celebrating their Anniversary in our group and Missy included us all in helping them celebrate and feel loved. Missy also included some special treats that were unexpected but truly appreciated. Taste2Tour should be on everyone’s bucket list.

Food & History

We finally have a food tour in York Pa. The tour was great I learned a lot about downtown York that I never knew. There was plenty of food at all the stops & it was all good. No need for dinner tonight. If you enjoy history & good food take this tour.
