ABOUT US
Our Story
Taste of Kansas City Food Tours was created from a lifelong love of food, travel, and meaningful experiences. After exploring cities around the world and participating in food tours across different cultures and cuisines, one thing became clear: food is the most powerful way to understand a place and the people who call it home. Kansas City holds a special place in my heart. From its rich history and creative neighborhoods, to its ever-evolving culinary scene, this city deserves to be experienced beyond the surface. Taste of Kansas City Food Tours was born out of a desire to showcase the locally owned, chef-driven restaurants that make KC’s food culture so special—while sharing the stories, history, and character that define each neighborhood. These tours are thoughtfully designed to feel authentic, welcoming, and unforgettable. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or rediscovering your hometown, my goal is simple: to help you fall in love with Kansas City through its food, its people, and the experiences that keep you coming back for more.
Our Mission
We strive to be the highest rated tour company in Kansas City. Taste of Kansas City Food Tours exists to connect people to Kansas City through food—highlighting locally owned, chef-driven restaurants and the stories behind them, while creating memorable walking experiences that inspire guests to return, explore, and support the neighborhoods they visit.

Fun way to try new foods and see parts of KC you may not typically see! I've been on this tour 3 times and had a fabulous experience every time! The first 2 were employee appreciation outings - we had tons of fun, learned a lot about Kansas City and was a great way to get to know some of my coworkers better. I enjoyed it so much, that I took my parents on a tour when they were in town this year and they also loved it! Highly recommend.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Fantastic Rebecca was committed to us having a great time. Her organization of the tour as well as her ad libbing with some extra time was outstanding. Her knowledge of Kansas City history enhanced the overall experience. Then there was the food! We loved all of it. It was great to go to some out-of-the-way places that we had never visited, even as Kansas City residents. She gave us a teaser of her prohibition tour and we are looking for time to sign up for that one too. Overall, it was a great tour and we would recommend it to locals and visitors alike.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Race to Sign Up! Great value for the money!!!! Had a blast with the group, perfect size of thirteen made up of three different small groups. The guide was very knowledgable about the history of the area and the food we were served along the way was so good! If you are headed to KC for a quick trip or live in the area you should check out Taste of Kansas City Food Tours.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Such a good time!! We had such a great time on the Foodie Tour. We met some very nice people and learned some background on the places we went. Ray did a fantastic job as the tour guide. He taught us some KC history and took us to restaurants we wouldn't have found on our own. We loved the variety in the food we tried. I can't say enough good things about our experience. Looking forward to coming back to KC to try one of the other tours!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Informative, delicious food, and we would highly recommend this tour. Fantastic tour guide, who was engaging and informative. She did not add corny jokes or weird puns to the tour. Her knowledge was current and delivered in a very understandable format. Even though it was cold and rainy, she made sure we were dry, comfortable, and safe. The food was delicious and was ready when we arrived at each location.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
