Taking the Scottsdale Waterfront Food Tour was a very fun way to spend an afternoon with visiting family from out-of-town. Jessica was fabulous – providing us with lots of fun information as well as tasty food and beverages. All four of us left satisfied with the food and drinks and happy with the experience.

Just went on the Waterfront Tour and it was fantastic! The tour was paced just right and never felt rushed. Highly recommend this food tour!
This was my third tour with Taste it Tours. When having company from out of town, the tours that are offered with Taste it Tours are excellent. I even went once without company!
Good luck to Jessica and Jay! This is a new tour but they have it all together.
Even if you live in Phoenix, as we do, this is an informative and fun tour — not to mention tasty.
