Went on the farmers market tour and it far surpassed expectations. Every time I thought a tasting was the finale, there were multiple more stalls to stop by. I had no idea the history of the market and it's stalls, and the wonderful tour guide gave me an appreciation that I definitely would not have had if I had just gone to the market on my own.
We both thought our tour guide, Therese was awesome. My only regret is that i was too busy to take Melting Pot Food Tours.
I've done 3 tours (so far). The latest was the LA Farmer's Market, and it was a typical example. The guides that they use are all great fun. Yes they know their subject very well, but they also know how to explain things in an entertaining manner. The whole party learned a lot about the history of the overall market, as well as the stalls that we visited and some that we didn't.
Friendly knowledgeable tour loved it!!
Had the best tour of the original Farmer’s market in LA. Andrew was interesting, entertaining and the food was outstanding. Great way to sample the food and learn the history of the market.
Wow! What a great experience. Lots of fun and very educational too.
We loved our food tour of the Original Farmer’s Market! Andrew was our guide and he was OUTSTANDING. We appreciated the variety and quality of food, and enjoyed learning the history of the farmer’s market and LA in general. It was also fun hearing stories and history of some of the vendors who have been there for generations. Did I mention the food?! It exceeded our expectations and I can confidently recommend Melting Pot Food Tours!
This was such a fun tour. Although I grew up in Pasadena, I still learned many new things about the history of Pasadena. We made 8 stops and each spot was a unique, family owned business with excellent food. The portions were hearty, and Barbara was a fun and very knowledgeable tour guide. I absolutely recmmend this tour.
My husband and I did the Old Pasadena Food Tour with Sabrina, and it was fantastic. We went to about 8 different places in Pasadena, learned so much about the area, and had some fantastic food. We went to places we would have never found and truly had the most fantastic food. She even gave us recommendations that we used throughout the rest of the time we stayed in Pasadena. I would highly recommend this. $75 per person - we definitely got our money worth and more!
We just spent the morning with Andrew on the Farmer's Market tour. He is charming, has a wealth of knowledge about the history of the area. His good choices and the pace of the tour were all excellent.
