Gourmet Beacon Tour FAQ
-
- Vegetarian substitutions are available on all our tours.
- Nut-free tastings are available on all tours. We have not had any problems in the past, but we do warn of potential cross-contaminations and traces of nuts in kitchens.
- Our Food Tours have been designed to highlight the best and most unique aspects of each establishment. Unfortunately, there isn’t always a “next best” food tasting option that also meets the special dietary needs of each of our guests. Since we have your health (and palate!) in mind, we truly appreciate your understanding on this issue.
- Please contact us if you are concerned about an allergy.

Not more than you can handle! All our walking tours involve about a mile of walking with places to sit, stand or rest in between over the course of the tour. We cover enough of a neighborhood’s food, history, and culture to satisfy everyone’s curiosity.
-
Lots! Enough food tastings are served that most people do not need dinner afterwards. And that is the truth! We have toured over thousands of people and it’s very rare that anyone walks away hungry.
