GETTING AROUND:
Detroit Foodie Tours are walk-able and offer you the opportunity to get in some light exercise and burn off some of the delicious food you will be sampling! Most of the neighborhood locations are no more than a few blocks from one another. There are typically plentiful Lyft and Uber drivers in the area that can easily and affordably provide a more customized form of transportation.
ARE SAMPLES LIMITED?
Yes and No… We know that everything will be so delicious you will want more but remember to pace yourself so you leave room to enjoy a sample from every stop. The chefs are preparing food based on one small plate sample per person. DFT politely requests that you limit your samples to one per location to help ensure that all tour participants can sample the featured small plate(s). Since this is an opportunity to give a good number of locations a try, we encourage you to visit the locations again in the near future!

SEATING:
To ensure a premium customer experience, DFT limits the number of tickets sold based on the capacities of participating locations. Locations vary on size, seating options, capacity and layout as well as some locations may be more popular than others and therefore we can’t guarantee seating.
WEATHER:
All foodie tours are RAIN or SHINE! Bring your umbrella if it looks like rain!
