What you'll do

On our Secret Food Tour: San Antonio, you'll discover a picturesque foodie oasis that winds its way through the heart of Texas' second largest city.

 

Our experienced guides will take you on a foodie adventure through bustling Downtown San Antonio, an area steeped in more than 300 years of history and heritage! On your journey, you'll sample an array of handmade hispanic specialties at family-owned businesses and see where the locals eat while avoiding chain restaurants and tourist traps. Throughout the experience, you'll learn firsthand what "Tex-Mex" actually is while enjoying it in the city in which it originated while also being enchanted by local landmarks such as San Fernando Cathedral, the River Walk, and the Alamo along the way. In fact, we're pretty sure that you'll remember more than that storied building by the time your journey is complete!

 

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

SEE ITINERARY

We'll begin at The Historic Market Square of San Antonio.
First up, you'll start your day like the locals do, you'll savor a delicious local favorite taco served on a warm handmade tortilla at a family-owned taqueria.
Second, you’ll indulge in a handcrafted beautiful Mexican sweet bread known as a "concha" at the local taqueria’s panaderia. Next, a short walk through the Historic Downtown, discovering local history and some sightseeing.
After which, you'll discover a unique twist on our beloved "bean burger" at the city's #1 burger joint. .
Now it's time to walk off some calories as we pass by some of our breathtaking architectural gems such as San Fernando Cathedral and the Bexar County Courthouse.
Of course, no visit to San Antonio would be complete without taking time to explore the enchanting River Walk, Texas' #1 tourist attraction.
Alongside the river, you'll experience culinary fusion at its finest, a slice of piping hot wood fire handcrafted pizza topped with savory, seasonal and local ingredients.
And finally, it's time to cool down with a scoop of handmade sorbet or gelato as we make our way to our city's most memorable monument - the Alamo!
As with all our tours, there's also our delicious Secret Dish.

Children are more than welcome to our tour if of an appropriate age to enjoy.

This is not a problem. Just inform our guide before the tour starts. During the tasting you can select another beverage you like.

Our tours provide our customers with a lot of food. Trust us, you will not need to eat a meal after our food tour!

 

Where do I add my discount voucher?

+

I would like to take your tour but it is already fully booked. Is there a way I can do the tour?

+

Our tours are often sold out very quickly. If the date you requested is not available, please do not hesitate to email us and we can see if there is anything we can do.

Is there a lot of walking?

Fortunately, the weather is predictable in San Diego. We do not issue refunds as per our terms and conditions. We also inform you that we never cancel a booking even if we only have 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.

+

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 a 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.

Can i get a discount

+

If you are a group of 11 people, then you can email us, we will be more than happy to give you a discount.
