What you'll do

On our Secret Food Tour: Atlanta, you'll discover a city of the future with strong ties to its past.

Our experienced guides will welcome you on a delicious journey through the capital of the South, where you’ll see firsthand why we’re known for being the epitome of true Southern hospitality. After all, this is the home of Coca-Cola, the Braves, and some of the best darn food you’ll ever put in your mouth! Seriously, our cuisine feels like a warm hug for the soul (that’s why we call it soul food!) and we cannot wait to share it with you. From down south specialties like chicken and waffles to international delights like yucca fries, we’ve got a little something for everyone, so come on in, set a spell, and get ready to dig in while we share some stories of "The City Too Busy To Hate."

Food will be served with water when available. Or if you prefer, a thoughtfully curated Upgraded Drinks Package is available for purchase.

  • We'll begin in front of The Grand Old Lady of Peachtree, the storied hotel where the cast and crew of "Gone With the Wind" stayed when the film premiered across the street at the Fox Theatre in 1939.
  • For our first Southern bite, you'll venture as far South as possible to South America and savor Uruguayan specialties at a beloved cafe whose name translates to "The Local Vineyard."
  • At our next stop, your guide will take you South of the border to Mexico where you'll discover our delicious Secret Dish and learn that down South, everything's better fried!
  • On our walk, you'll see legendary local monuments such as the Federal Reserve Bank and the Margaret Mitchell House and hear stories about how Mitchell wrote The Great American Novel.
  • Of course, no visit to Atlanta would be complete without devouring a generous serving of that Southern delicacy known as chicken and waffles, featured here with tangy lemon pepper and sweet Georgia peaches.
  • After which, you'll visit a buzzy local taproom to delight in a specialty Southern creation made just for our guests - a mouthwatering all-beef slider topped with fried mac and cheese!
  • And finally, no matter how hot or humid it gets outside, you'll be the coolest kid on the block as you indulge in a refreshing gourmet popsicle handcrafted by a pair of local brother entrepreneurs.

What if it rains or I change my plans?

Unfortunately, the weather is unpredictable in Atlanta. We do not issue refunds as per our terms and conditions. We also inform you that we never cancel a booking even if we have only 2 people! However we do reserve the right to cancel the tour if we feel the weather is extreme, and we cannot run the tour due to this for more info see our Terms and Conditions: https://www.secretfoodtours.com/terms-and-conditions/

Can I pay the tour in cash?

You must book directly on our website. We do not accept cash payments. Our online payment is safe, secured and SSL protected.

Why do we need to pay for booking fee?

The booking fee that you have to pay is up to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.

Foreign Transaction Fees

A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us in your bank statement and we will refund this fee as a gesture of good will.
