This is an awesome tour! Even if you're a local it's a must do! There is a good amount of walking but it's broken up by lots of great food and drinks. The history information is a bonus. I will absolutely do it again!!! read more

I am so excited Chris has brought this type of experience to Mobile! Mobile has so much culture and food is integral in telling that story, ESPECIALLY in the South. Chris did a great job of telling the story of Mobile and including our most famous restaurants (and some newcomers) in it. I grew up in Mobile but moved away for college and further for adulthood. From afar, I've watched Mobile change for the better. This is one of those things that I am so happy exists! It's so nice being able to taste a bunch of new restaurants and be reminded of Mobilian charm. I will have to say that Tasha at Three Georges was the highlight of my trip. She is so much fun, and the pralines are so yummy! I cannot recommend this enough to the people OF Mobile, and to ANY visitor. Out of our group of seven, only one wasn't a local, my boyfriend. So don't think it's a tourist-only thing! This was a blast! Thank you Chris for starting this tour! read more

We were down in Mississippi from Iowa for a winter visit and decided to see Mobile, AL. The walking tour was very interesting and Lee our guide was very knowledgeable on the buildings and architecture of the downtown area. I especially liked the Vancleave building. The food was very good. There was one place that only gave a nut cup and one that gave a candy praline. It seemed like a slight under performance but by the time you have the oysters and the barbeque you will be glad there were a couple places that didnt stuff you. You will not be hungry when the tour is over. I strongly encourage this trip and it is a delightful way to see historic downtown Mobile. On a side note, I dont like oysters so Lee made sure I got the extra wings at the barbeque place. read more

This was a fun thing to do when in Mobile. Good food sampling and some fun characters. Tasha at the Three Georges candy shop is very entertaining while making pralines. The Gumbo to start was excellent at The Royal Scam, then a quick tour of some city landmarks on our way to Panini Pete's. The Panini samples were special and the beignets were a real treat. Then on to the A&M Peanut Shop that also has some good chocolates, after passing by a city park having an Easter egg hunt. After that the Three Georges ice cream and candy shop - with the very entertaining demonstration by Tasha. On we went to Heroes to taste some excellent spinach and Crawfish dip and beer. Lastly, we tasted several kinds of baked oysters and had the opportunity to try raw ones, but I passed. If you are new to Mobile, you should do this!! read more

Went during Halloween tours and the tour guide was great and informative. Although I've lived here my whole life, I've never really been in downtown much so walking around hearing all of the stories was great. The food on the other hand definitely wasn't what I was hoping for. Very tiny portions and I don't drink alcohol so I didn't participate in the cocktails. For the price of the ticket, I guess I expected more to taste. Looking at others pics, they definitely had more than our group was served so maybe it's just hit and miss. The people were nice but I had to go get dinner afterward because I was definitely not filled up and none of the food was anything special. Great idea but probably wouldn't pay that much again for a ticket. read more

The Bienville Bites Food tour was a great experience. Chris was awesome and the information he shared was great. Only disappointment was that some of the restaurants did not seem appreciative of the tour and were not set up for the group. They didn't help Chris out at all! Disappointing. But Chris did a great job! I would definitely recommend this tour! I just hope that the restaurants start working with you ( like Winztell's) and appreciate the value of the tour groups. read more

My wife and I made the trip from Pensacola to go on this tour. We enjoyed ourselves very much. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Mobile's food and history. She made it very interesting by including lots of historical tidbits about the city as we walked around. We stopped at several restaurants in downtown plus the one of a kind peanut shop and Three George's candy shop (you will have to take the tour). We had everything from seafood gumbo to oysters to white Alabama BBQ. This is a fantastic food tour and a must if you are interested in the Gulf Coast. The gulf coast's culture and food are inseparable. From New Orleans to the big bend of florida this food is unique and you might learn a few things along the way. Did you know that seafood gumbo was first served in Mobile, and Mardi Gras was started there as well? I did not either. I we learned it on the tour! Mobile I salute you! You are humble in the knowledge that Louisiana stole your ideas and like a true southerner you just raise your hat, and your glass to your neighbors to the west, and say to them Laissez les bons temps rouler! -B- read more

My husband and I had such great time on this tour and can say that it was the highlight of our Mobile, AL trip. Chris is very knowledgeable and has put a lot of thought into the each and every second of the customer experience during the food tour. Definitely sign up for this food tour if you are in Mobile. You will not regret it. Chris delivers an authentic experience and there is never a dull moment. The time frame for the Saturday three hour tour was a perfect time frame. read more

My daughters and I enjoyed the tour today. We are locals to Mobile but we learned some history we did not know. And enjoyed food at restaurants we had not been too. However, we will be back! Well worth the cost. We will do the evening tour later in year when it's cooler. Highly recommend read more

Food tours are my thing when I travel so they are not new to me. Most are good but some are bad so I'm always skeptical. Well, this one was Excellent!! It was HOT but it's July and I'm a local so I was prepared. If you do this tour in the summer, rest assured you will never be without water. We tasted food from 7 local popular restaurants and landmarks along with getting a historical tour of downtown as we walked to our next destination. All I have to say is the food was plentiful!!! I was beyond stuffed and I couldn't eat all that was offered. You definitely get your money's worth. Laney, our guide was super cool and very knowledgeable. My friends and I are already planning our next tour! I highly recommend Bienville Bites! You will not be disappointed. read more

I spent my Friday afternoon on a food tour of downtown Mobile and loved it. From gumbo to divinity and beyond not a moment of this experience was a waste of time. I loved the walking and spurts of history enroute to tastings along the way. The hospitality the restaurants and shops showed us along the way made me eager to revisit each and everyone again. Thank you for a fantastic outing! read more

Had a great time today with work friends on the tour! Each place we stopped had great food. Even though I was born in Mobile and teach Alabama History, Hayley managed to teach me a lot about my city that I've never heard before. read more

We really enjoyed this walking food tour, Floats & Food, in downtown Mobile. It started at the historic Hallett House and made 4 restaurant stops. First we had raw oysters and other oyster dishes, as well as dragon drinks, at Wintzell's. Our guide Chris gave us historical information at each stop and a few other places along the way. Next we had a rib and 2 wings at Moe's, then craft beer at Old Majestic Brewery and a portion of a Reuben from The Cheese Cottage. Our last stop was at O'Daly's Irish Pub where we had strawberry froze', a slice of pizza and a beignet. We ended with Pollman's king cake and other treats back at the Hallett House just as a Mardi Gras parade was starting. We received a bag to hold our parade throws and only had to wait a few minutes until the parade reached us. It was a super fun experience. My only advice would be to include even more historical info along the way. read more
