      a taste of Orlando
      This was a nice little supper surprise, with 3 stops (2 savory, 1 sweet). We visited Gordon Ramsey Fish & Chips, Brother Jimmy's BBQ, & ¡Café de Paris.* It was the perfect amount of food and drink for me, esp. on a hot day, and a decent [Orlando] value for the variety. I was looking for a bit more walking and talking (we didn't travel far), but it turned into a pleasant evening. I think OOT offers another, longer tour, too, if you're esp. hungry and/or have more time. {Our guide, Jordan, was great—she's a native Floridian, didn't hover, and made sure we were all taken care of.} *Note that the restaurants change periodically—call ahead if you want to know exactly where you'll be getting your food.

      Rich was a fantastic guide, with great stories about Mr. Rogers, the history of Winter Park, and Rollins College.

      A must do...
      What fun! We are locals who just wanted to learn more about our community and needed a diversion from " life". Rich did not disappoint. The boat ride gave wind to our souls!

      Fun foodie tour!
      We had such a fun tour of restaurants at icon park tonight. Jordan was a friendly and informative tour guide. We overstuffed ourselves on delicious food and drink. The portions were large, My favorite part was that all of these restaurants have scratch kitchens, they make their own sauces, etc. I’m excited to go back now that I’ve had a taste. I also surprised myself and really enjoyed the icon wheel. I don’t usually like heights, but this was not at all scary and I loved seeing the lights of Orlando at night. Thank you Jordan for making it a fun evening.

      Great fun, informative tasting tour.
      We had Rick as our tour guide. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. The intro to 5 eating establishments in Winter Park was very informative. The walk was pleasant and Rick added to our knowledge of Winter Park history. We now have more information which will make our future visits more fun and more interesting. The only reason this is rated as a 4 star is that we compared it to our Mr. Rogers Tour with Rick which was a 5+ star performance, the best professional tour we have ever had.

      Super friendly and knowledgeable guide plus outstanding customer service.
      The tour company, including Sarah, who was our guide, went out of their way to schedule a time that worked for my wife and I. She was super knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting and funny stories about Mr. Rogers, his life and the time he and his wife spent at Rollins College and elsewhere. It was just the right amount of walking. I would definitely encourage anyone who thinks they might be interested to visit both Rollins College and Winter Park. Both are beautiful.

      This is a Tour You Will Want to Take Over!
      These folks really know how to treat their guests. I HIGHLY recommend this tour. Venue choices were wonderful, the hosts treat us very well and food was fabulous. (Remember - this is a "tasting" and you will get full if you indulge in all the food and drinks. ) Take money with you , 'cause they arrange for discounts at the venue too on the day of tour and you will want to take some of these great items home with you. I WILL be going back and taking all my friends.

      A memorable and pleasant tour
      We really enjoyed the tour. Rich’s wealth of knowledge and the easy way he tells the history of Winter Park and his many insights into little known family dynamics of the Rodgers’ family was engaging. Some especially fond memories were hallways of Rollins College and the statue of Mr Rogers and the kids. We loved every minute. Time well spent. Reminds us that there is always something new to discover. The boat tour and lunch on our own rounded out a memorable day.

      Great Way to Explore Orlando!
      I did the Flavors of Winter Park Foodie Tour this past weekend and it was really wonderful! We made about 6 stops and learned about the history of the area. The tour was well organized, and the guides were fantastic. The food itself was amazing - enjoyed getting to know some local businesses in the area! This activity is perfect for all ages! Highly recommend and looking forward to my next tour with them!

      A Nice Saturday
      The Flavors of the Winter Park Foodie Tour was a nice morning out. We started out at an easy-to-find location with a lot of complimentary, nearby parking. We stopped at a variety of locations and tasted bite size samples of sweets, candies, and Jamaican patties. We liked that the manager of Blu on the Avenue restaurant personally came and talked with us about the restaurant and other nearby ones. Likewise, we liked the food samples at Ancient Olive and Hamilton’s Kitchen. But keep in mind these are just samples, so don’t go hungry. Rich had great tidbits about the history of Winter Park but we wanted more of this. He seemed like he had a wealth of local information, but we only got a little taste of it on this tour. I imagine his ghost tour and Mr. Rogers tour would be interesting.

      Private VIP Experience at Universal Orlando was Amazing
      This was so very worth it! Dani was our guide and she was with us the entire day, telling us all the back stories and letting us know the details of the rides when anyone was uncertain about riding . We did the Motorbike ride three times that day! We also walked backstage , met Spider-Man , and Dani walked us to the very front of the line anywhere we went . The experience includes a breakfast buffet and lunch buffet in a private air conditioned area and also dinner which you can take at your choice of several restaurant options at the park. The ease of the experience and amazing guide we were lucky to have , made it an unforgettable experience ! We will do it again for sure .

      Exceeded our expectations! What a fun tour!
      We found this tour to be exceptional! It was a pleasant walk and the information that our guide had was incredible! The time went quickly because we were fascinated. We love Mr. Rogers and to see Winter Park in his context was great. The boat tour at the end through the canals was wonderful. I would recommend this to everybody visiting in the area.
