Good fun food in San Antonio

Scott was a knowledgeable and gifted tour guide. He did a great job taking us to different local locations and telling us the history behind them. He took into consideration my lactose issue and made sure I was taken care of during the trip. Was a fun and informative tour. Would recommend.

Great way to tour the city and try great food!

We had an amazing experience with Scott on our San Antonio food tour! Traveling with a group of teenagers can be a challenge, but he kept every single one of them engaged from start to finish with a great mix of incredible food, local history, and stories about the city. The variety of food was fantastic, from authentic local favorites and sweet treats to barbecue and a burger stop. Beyond the food, Scott took us to see beautiful murals, shared the stories behind them, brought us by the San Fernando Cathedral, and helped us see parts of San Antonio we would have completely missed on our own. My students walked away full, entertained, and knowing so much more about the history and culture of the city. If you're looking for more than just a food tour and want an experience that truly helps you connect with San Antonio, we highly recommend Scott!
