    This was a lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends. The food was lovely and portions generous as well as a good helping of alcoholic drinks to accompany each course. The only negative for me was that the details of the tour suggested that it would end at the Baltic Gallery which we were looking forward to, and sadly our tour didn’t go there which was a a shame. Avril the tour guide was fantastic and full of fun facts!

    From meeting our tour guide Andrew to the very end everything was fantastic. We started off in the Grainger Market where we sampled local beers and Indian food as well as oysters. We visited Blackfriars, a Tapas restaurant on Dean Street and then dessert in the French Quarter. All food was delicious and a member of our group was gluten intolerant which was not an issue for any of he venues. I will definitely try other tours and think this is a perfect gift. Andrew was friendly and told us about local architecture etc. but was never boring.

    Such a fantastic afternoon on this tour! We had the best guide - Andrew, who was the loveliest and most knowledgeable guide - and a great group of people, most of who were students over from the US (wishing them all the best for their futures!) The information shared, the food and the drink were fabulous - as were the venues we visited (we will definitely be back)! We especially enjoyed the Grainger market and the information shared there about the heritage of the brewery by the two owners. (It was closed by the time we got back or we would have been buying more!) Would definitely recommend. Thank you Andrew - and La Vacanza Travel! 😊

    I bought this for a Christmas present for my husband and didn't really know what to expect. We weren't disappointed, we had an amazing day. Our guide was Andrew who met us at the monument and immediately had us all relaxed and raring to go. He gave us a talk at every stop about the food,drink and places of interest. Every thing as perfect. We net some great people. Overall a fantastic experience and can't wait to do it again.

    It was a nice experience to explore Newcastle through the different foods loved by Geordies. The guide for the day was Andy. He was full of anecdotes and interesting facts about the city. Our group was small but big on laughs. Highly recommended. The most memorable part of the food tour for me was the dessert. It was a nice way to end an amazing experience. Who would have thought you can pair dessert with wine? Genius!
