Stefan was the best host we could’ve asked for! It was my first time in SD and he went above and beyond explaining history and meaning behind everything. The food and drinks at each stop were top tier and was well worth the money! Cannot recommend enough!!

We had a really fun evening in San Diego with our guide, Stephan. He was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the restaurants we visited. The food and drinks were delicious. Highly recommend this tour!!

I was scrambling to plan a weekend in SD with my boo and upon booking my stay at the Manchester Grand Hyatt I saw that the hotel had a relationship with Foodelicious Tours. Let me tell you, Stefan was communicative, excited, and extremely knowledgeable. He confirmed the time and location via text, and greeted us with open arms upon arrival. Every stop on his tour was amazing. I had to send pics of the food to my best friends back home and encouraged them to sign up. Stefan gave a perfect rundown of the neighborhood we toured and would make time to answer ANY questions our group had. When I returned to work my boss asked how the trip was and this tour experience was easily the best thing I could share (don't tell my boo). Highly recommended...

Stephan was a fantastic tour guide. Food and drinks were phenomenal and we learned a lot too. Hope to get back to San Diego to do his other tours.

Stefan was great. He was very informative about the history of the eateries and places sorrounding it. The food was great and drinks too. We enjoyed getting to try more places.

We came into San Diego foe a mini getaway and invited some friends who are local to join us. We all had a ton of fun. The locals got to try places they had never been and really enjoyed seeing their city from a different perspective. We all enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and social aspect of getting to know other people that we may have not had the opportunity to talk to otherwise. Our guide Angela was a ton of fun, full of energy, and was great about accomidating my food allergy. My husband and I plan on looking into walking food tours any time we visit other big cities from now on. It was an excellent experience.

Great Tour! Stefan was a great host and shared his wealth of knowledge regarding not only the food and drinks at each location but also his love for the East Side.

We did this evening tour with Stefan as our guide. He was very informative and accommodating. Gave us history of the area and provided some information on places we visited. Night we went went to Thai place, Church for beer, Mexican, and finished up with Greek. Food was delicious and plentiful. Drinks at each stop were included. Highly recommend this tour.

We took a walking tour through downtown, visiting several restaurants. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the are and comfortable talking to all the people in the restaurants. He also is certified in pairing food with beverages. I now have a greater appreciation for lagers, which I almost never drank.

Stefan was excellent - great choices to stop for food and drink. Very small group, it would work well either way.
