We had such a thorough explanation of the history of the region and an explanation of many of the customs. It was informative without being stifling. Each place we visited was expecting us and they had prepared a very authentic dish for us to sample. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone...
We had such a thorough explanation of the history of the region and an explanation of many of the customs. It was informative without being stifling. Each place we visited was expecting us and they had prepared a very authentic dish for us to sample. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area or to people who live here and would like a sample plate from some different restaurants. I was surprised at how informative and entertaining our guide was. She certainly knows what she is talking about having grown up in this area.rdrissel

Hearing Marie mix a history lesson with the food description of what we were about to taste. The food was truly fantastic. And at each stop, we were made comfortable by the owner/hosts.

Thank you to Marie, we had such a great time and enjoyed visiting with the people that were in this group. there were 5 tastings in the tour. Marie is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of history of the area. So not only are you getting a food tour but an informative tour of Lafayette and the Acadian culture. Marie told us to contact her if we needed to know anything else. I bugged her for a couple of things and she was spot on with her recommendations. I recommend this tour for anyone who is visiting the Lafayette area.Trip05207823439

Very good food, nice ride and EXTREMELY informative. Maybe include a drink here and there and it would be pretty much perfect. But we enjoyed it a lot anyways.
