This guided food tour, Madison's first and best, allows you to explore our unique city with ease, including stops at local restaurants and specialty shops. Native Madisonians and visitors alike can relish this one-of-a-kind way to experience the heart of the city, and visit Madison’s main attractions from Lake Mendota to Lake Monona. 3 hours and 5-7 tour stops will fill you up! 

These fast-paced, one-hourish, themed tours change every tour season. In 2019 we offered "Capitol Classics," which featured classic snacks and adult beverages in some of the city’s oldest buildings. In 2018 we had fun with "Up High Happy Hour," eating and drinking high above street level. In 2017 we went Scandinavian with the "Utflukt Happy Hour" (that means wander in Norwegian). 

It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
