What Does a Food Tour Cost on Average?

Nadine Braehmer • October 13, 2024

Planning your next travel adventure and wondering what a food tour costs on average? If you want to dive into a city’s culinary scene and eat like a local, a food tour is an experience worth every penny. While prices vary depending on the city, tour length, group size, and what’s included, we’ll break down typical costs to help you plan your budget – and show why our food tours offer incredible value.

Average Prices for Food Tours

Food tours can range widely in price depending on the location, duration, and type of experience:

  • Short, street food tours (2-3 hours): $35 – $60 per person
  • Half-day food tours (4-5 hours): $70 – $100 per person
  • Full-day culinary adventures: $120 – $200 or more per person

Popular travel destinations like Paris, Lisbon, and Istanbul often fall within the $70 – $100 range for a half-day tour. More luxurious tours with cooking classes or private guides may cost a bit more but offer unique experiences that go beyond simple tastings.

What’s Included in a Food Tour?

The beauty of a food tour is that it’s more than just a meal – it’s a cultural experience. Typically, the price includes:

  • All food and drink tastings along the way
  • A local guide with insider knowledge of hidden gems
  • Stories and insights about the history and culture behind each dish
  • Walking tours through interesting neighborhoods that showcase the city’s essence

Some tours, like ours, also provide unique experiences such as meeting chefs, visiting food markets, or enjoying off-the-beaten-path stops most tourists miss.

Is a Food Tour Worth the Cost?

If you love trying new foods and getting to know a city beyond the typical tourist attractions, a food tour offers great value for your money. Instead of spending time figuring out where to eat, you’ll get expertly curated tastings in one go – saving time and avoiding guesswork.
