Gordon was an amazing guide! He knew so much about the history of the city and the restaurants. The food was delicious! It was a wonderful way to try multiple places for a short visit to Charleston. Would definitely do again!
Thanks for the review! We hope to see you again soon!
Our guide Caitlin was amazing, a friendly, very kind but this was most definitely not seafood heavy and very disappointing from the other food tours I’ve experience with that company.
Hello, we are very sorry that the tour did not meet your expectations. We appreciate the feedback and will certainly address the seafood heavy portion of the description. We are more than happy to offer a refund for the tour. Please feel free to reach out to me at andrew@bulldogtours.com to discuss further.
Small group. Excellent food. Even better commentary from Gordon. He brings in food expertise as well as Charleston history and flavor.
Thank you!
I had a wonderful time on this Food tour. The food was outstanding — the shrimp & grits were a real highlight, and the she-crab soup was the best I’ve tasted anywhere in the Lowcountry. Andrew, our guide, brought everything to life with his stories, local insights, and easy sense of humor. He created such a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that people naturally started chatting, connecting, and even exchanging cards by the end. It felt like the perfect balance of great food, interesting history, and genuinely good company.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and hope to eat, laugh, and explore with you again soon!
My girls' group did a walking food tour with Diane of Bulldog Tours, and it was fabulous! You get a little history and inside stories, as well as tasting a range of local fare. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the recommendation!
We try to do a food tour whenever we visit Charleston, and this time we chose the Upper King. We were not disappointed. Our guide Gordon was friendly and full of information about the food, restaurants, and history. The portions were delicious and filling. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you for the recommendation and kind words about Gordon's tour!
We had an incredible time on the Savor the Flavors tour of Downtown Charleston with Bulldog Tours! From the very beginning, they impressed us with thoughtful touches—like providing water before we even started walking. Every stop on the tour was welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. We left full, happy, and completely stuffed! Our tour guide, Lisa, was fantastic. She brought Charleston’s rich culinary history to life by connecting the dishes we were tasting to the stories and culture behind them. Her knowledge, energy, and warm personality made the experience both educational and entertaining. The entire experience was first-class. If you're visiting Charleston (or even if you live here!), I highly recommend this tour. Come hungry—you won’t be disappointed!
What an awesome review! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your afternoon with Lisa. Thanks for joining us!
