Yes. Non-walking food tours are available by request and are a great option for private groups who prefer transportation between stops. These tours offer the same curated tastings and expert guidance, with the added convenience of traveling by bus.

Please note that transportation is not included in the tour price and must be rented separately. We’re happy to help coordinate logistics and timing once your group size and tour details are confirmed.

If you’re interested in a bus tour, just let us know when booking your private experience.

The number of tastings depends on the tour you choose! Our tours include anywhere from 5 to 10 tastings, each thoughtfully curated to showcase the best flavors of the city.

Yes! Tour times are flexible, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request based on partner availability. Morning, afternoon, and evening tours are all possible, though some stops may have limited hours.

If you have a specific time in mind, let us know—we’re happy to work with you to make it happen.

Because we partner with locally owned eateries to showcase their signature dishes, we’re not always able to accommodate all dietary restrictions. While many stops offer alternative options, a few favorites simply do not.

We encourage guests with dietary questions or concerns to reach out before booking so we can help determine whether the tour is a good fit for you.

When booking for a group, please share as much dietary information as you have during the checkout process. We understand plans evolve, so you’re welcome to follow up as you confirm details with each member of your group. We’re always happy to answer questions and offer guidance when possible. 

Group size depends on the type of tour you choose. For walking food tours, we can comfortably accommodate up to 25 guests.

For private tours that include transportation, group size will depend on the capacity of the bus or vehicle rented for your tour. We’re happy to help determine the best option based on your group size and preferred experience.

If you’re planning for a larger group or have specific needs, just reach out and we’ll help you find the best fit.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
