Great Southern Food

cindymccracken, Sep 2022

Our tour guide was great. Bailey was very knowledgable about the food and different parts of the city we were in. You go to four stops which the food you get is indicative of the south. You get more than enough to eat. And Bailey was a great tour guide. She was funny, personable, and knowledgeable. We would highly reccomend her for you tour guide.

Great experience!

The warm pralines at the end! Our guide was very knowledgeable. Would recommend. Savannah is a gorgeous city.

Awesome Tour!

TERESA_P, Oct 2021

This was more than a food tour! Kellee is a former chef and a historian, so we got the history of Savannah, along with the best food. The Pimento Cheese Fried Green Tomato biscuits were my favorite! The tour was very informative and just the right pace. My mother was in a wheelchair, and we never felt rushed, nor did we ever feel everyone was waiting on us. We were able to try lots of new foods and old standbys as well. Thanks for a great tour!

GOOD EATS!!!!

James_N, Oct 2021

My husband and I enjoyed the Fried Food Walking Tour with Kelly. Kelly's love and passion for her craft as chief and Food guide was apparent as she gave us an understanding that we don't have to eat only out of hunger, but as a hobby learning to experience the various cuisine and culture around Savannah through our taste. It was a very pleasurable and entertaining time.

Great tour! Entertaining and Informative

Cheryl_G, Aug 2021

Loved it! Kellee was our guide and we learned so much from her! She is a great storyteller and presents her tales in a seamless, warm manner. The food (four stops) was great and it was an experience we would recommend. Thank you for making our first visit to Savannah so memorable!

Spectacular experience

Veronica_S, Jun 2021

The tour representative please forgive but I forgot her name was Awesome and she gave an enlightening history of Savannah’s historical district. Moreover, as a resident of Savannah her age offered knowledge and wisdom on the tour especially the Bay Street area leading to River street history. Additionally, the food was delicious impartiality the fried green tomato with mentos cheese on a biscuit. My wife and I really had a spectacular time in Savannah and we thank everyone for all the wonderful hospitality offered.

Amazing

Sabrina_S, Jun 2021

Kelle was an amazing tour guide. She was full of information. Loved the different stops we tasted so much so that we are going to Rise for breakfast before our drive home. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to try different foods. Parker’s Market was a great starting point as well.

Nice fried food tour.

Jon_W, May 2021
