    Blue Fern's walking food tours across DC, Georgetown, Old Town Alexandria, and U Street consistently deliver memorable experiences that blend history, culture, and excellent cuisine. The three-hour tours hit that sweet spot where generous food portions actually add up to a full meal, while guides weave in fascinating historical context about the neighborhoods you're exploring. Multiple guests mention these tours becoming the highlight of their entire DC visit, which speaks volumes. The guides truly shine here. Joe, Laurie, Jenn, Neka, and Richard all earn enthusiastic praise for being knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely passionate about their communities. They're described as eager to answer questions, witty, and attentive to group needs. The restaurant selections showcase diverse, quality cuisine—from Turkish specialties to fresh-ground pizza to impressive crème brûlée—at authentic farm-to-fork spots. Even large groups report smooth, well-paced experiences with perfect timing at each stop. For anyone wanting to explore DC neighborhoods through food while actually learning something substantial, this consistently delivers.

    Great food tour in Old Town Alexandria. David was very knowledgeable about American history. The food was delicious. We would do it again!
