Bootleggers, where we were served kale salad, brisket nachos and apple pie moonshine. 2. The Mission, where we were served pork tacos and a spicy elote. 3. Wine Collective, where we sampled 3 wines and snacked on charcuterie. 4. Cimmino's, where we had our choice of several flavors of gelato -- and the ingredients were imported from Italy! Each stop featured a unique atmosphere and tasty food. I really appreciated their ability to accommodate dietary restrictions -- because I don't eat red meat, I was provided with two smoked turkey tacos in place of brisket nachos, and with chicken tacos in place of pork tacos. This was a huge plus for me! We spent about half an hour at each establishment before walking to the next. As we traveled, Zach shared some fun facts about the area's history. I left with a satisfied tummy and some great new memories.

I went on Arizona Food Tours Scottsdale tour with a group on a private tour…read more I have been on many food tours all over the county and world. I generally hate giving a food tour three stars and really struggled with this review.. I decided to give three stars based on variety, value and authenticity. The food felt like a repeat of the same thing over and over again outside of a weird radish finger food and gelato at the end. The repeat tacos and/or nachos are basically cheap junk food that you can get anywhere and $100+ for a tour does not sit well with me when you are only served a few tacos and corn. Lastly, I just don't think Scottsdale has a unique culinary scene outside of pulled meat and tacos, which just doesn't get me that excited. There just is not much for them to do on a food tour in Old town Scottsdale so they did what they could. I always recommend a food tour in a new city and still recommend this one if you need to fill time but it was one of my least favorite tours unfortunately.

He had a lot of stories and history about the area which was interesting to learn about the area. We stopped at about 5 restaurants and the food from each of the restaurants was really good at each stop. If you are looking for a fun tour to learn more about the Scottsdale area, this is a good one. Be ready for a lot of walking though, and wear comfortable walking shoes!

He shared so much background not only about the food but about Scottsdale itself. The stops were well planned and provided a great variety of items to sample.

Highly recommend Taste It Tours and our guide John!

Their pizzas are BOMB! Don't forget to grab some fresh sourdough or other types of bread they have. In addition , I would highly encourage grabbing some of their homemade soups! The outside area has live music playing sometimes and it's a great place to get together with kids since it's so open and allows you to choose sit around a bunch of people or go off into a more secluded area. Another thing we did before moving here when we visited was did the olive tour where they give you a lesson on olive and olive oil! Very interesting if you love olive oil and cooking! This gem is definitely a highlight in this area for a good kick back, with good food, good vibes, and fresh air! Bonus, they have motorcycle parking

Loved how they've expanded the selection over the years, and I'm always impressed with their products. They offer sampling products, which is helpful and I've purchased items I never thought to try thanks to that. A few items I've enjoyed thus far (others to be enjoyed as I run through items on hand): - skewers from case: a bit pricy for the size, but still really good! I added balsamic glaze to the caprese ones to make next level. - Salt, Pepper & Rosemary Focaccia: very delicious and perfect for dipping There are still plenty of items that I have to try once I finish the products I have on hand. I'll definitely visit both to stock the pantry, and maybe try the cafe another time. Beautiful outdoor area if you don't want to sit inside, and I imagine is great 8-9 months out of the year once we survive another hot Arizona summer. Check this out if in the area and you love olive products!

We booked an Ice cream and Gelato tour around Old Town and the Waterfront and were picked up within 15 minutes by "Captain Kirk". He is a very warm and personable guide. He was well versed in the area including buildings/archetecture, public art, history of the area, restaurants and entertainment venues. We had three stops on the tour for 1) Ice cream, 2) gelato and 3) sorbet. All were excellent. We certainly had our fill of sweet treats, all included in the price of the tour. We would certainly recommend this company for one of their many various tours, based on this experience. It was a weekday in January so just be aware that you may need to make more advanced reservations than we did. Thank you Monica and Kirk.

We bopped around Old Town Scottsdale, being given historical information about the town/city and various landmarks. It was extremely interesting and a nice mellow way to start the tour. We then went up towards the Phoenician resort and toured the ritzy neighborhoods to see the beautiful homes - that is definitely an spect of the tour I don't think we'd get anywhere else! There were options to stop for photos, beverages etc. I would note to be prepared for the breeze as you ride on the golf cart and be aware you'll likely be on a couple busy roads with actual cars so ensure your belongings are secure. It was an absolutely fantastic time and I can confidently say I'd love to do another tour with any out-of-town guests who visit me!

We got to the location noted on our confirmation early and no one from the tour was there and the restaurant had never heard of the tour. I frantically looked online and saw that online, they had a different meeting spot...it was close by, so we rushed over there, getting there right at 5:30pm. Again, no one from the tour was anywhere to be found and the restaurant had never heard of them. There is no phone number on their website or on any of our confirmation paperwork, so all I could do was send an e-mail requesting an explanation of what happened. Their policy states they will send an e-mail the day prior to your event to confirm the meeting spot, but I never received an e-mail. We were very frustrated and disppointed in this. I have asked for a refund or for them to work with us in rescheduling but from other reviews I am sure that will not happen and we are out this money. The other frustrating side, this was a deal through living social, and they will not refund our money and they don't respond to e-mails or concerns about companies that they work with. I would not recommend this tour or recommend using deals from living social..unless you truly to the research to make sure the company they are working with is reputable and will honor the living social deal.
