Corporate Team Building Events in Tampa
Plan Your Event
What Makes a Corporate Event in Tampa Worth Remembering?
The safe option is easy. Pick a restaurant or bar, send the calendar invite, and nobody complains. Individuals join groups that are the same as their day-to-day in the office or their remote teams and by Monday it might as well not have happened.
On a corporate food tour, your team walks through Ybor City, through streets that reflect the history of the city and how it grew up around it. The stops reflect where you are: food with a backstory, in a neighborhood with one too. The conversation starts on its own, which is what drives the event: the shared experience, the laughs, the stop everyone talked about or argued which bite was the best.
We run events for new employees getting a feel for Tampa, client groups looking for something unique, and teams that just need a reason to actually be in the same room together and outside of the office. The format works for all of them.
What Does Secret Food Tours Offer in Tampa?
A food tour through Ybor City, taking your group through multiple stops across the historic neighborhood. A few hours through streets that tell the story of how this city got here.
We also build custom team building events for groups with specific goals, bigger headcounts, or anything that needs a different style. Tell us what you're working with and we'll figure out the format.
Team Building Events
Your team walks Tampa's historic streets together, with food stops that actually have a story behind them.
Client Entertainment
A private tour through Tampa is a different kind of afternoon than another team building lunch or happy hour.
What is a unique corporate team building event in Tampa?
One that your team didn't see coming and actually wants to talk about afterward. Here's what sets it apart:
- Your group moves through Ybor City instead of sitting in a room
- Food from stops that reflect Tampa's actual history, not just convenient ones
- Private format: just your team, your pace, your experience
- Groups from 2 to 200, dietary needs handled before the day
- No conference room, no name tags, no icebreaker games
You know the city. Let us show you a different side of it.

We understand that plans may shift and we are happy to reschedule your tour at no additional charge (based on availability). Or we can offer credit to be used towards a future Secret Food Tour.

Our 5-star rated walking tours are typically 1 to 1.5 miles (1.6 - 2.41KM) and we can adjust this depending on the needs of your private tour.
Any age restrictions?
No, we welcome foodies of all ages! However, our alcoholic beverage tours require that guests show a photo ID at the beginning of the tour and must be of legal drinking age in the city of the tour.
Can your tours accommodate dietary restrictions or allergies?
This varies tour-by-tour but we absolutely try to provide dietary alternatives where we can. We take food allergies very seriously and request that you provide us with those persons with allergies at the time of booking. Because we work with independent restaurants and food suppliers, we cannot control the potential for cross-contamination and cannot accept responsibility for potential risk of allergen exposure.
Do you offer pick-up and drop off for your tours?
We do offer pick-up/drop-off depending on your exact location for a fee. Please contact us to see if we can accommodate you in this respect.
Are your tours accessible to those with wheelchairs?
This varies city-by-city so please advise us if anyone from your group has mobility issues.
