I am glad I received this as a gift because I’m not sure I would have spent money on this otherwise. We received more of a Capitol Hill history tour of random facts than a food tour. Not to mention our tour guide wasn’t the friendliest. She seemed very opinionated and didn’t do a great job connecting history to the restaurant.
In total, when looking at the cost of each tasting it was maybe valued at $30 a person (if that). For $70 a person I would have hoped for a bit more, including bigger portions, more information on the restaurants we were going to and more creative selections for the restaurants. Overall I wouldn’t recommend this particular tour but maybe it was just our guide and the neighborhood.

Robert is a fantastic guide! He is great with accommodating the whole group into the tour infusing past and current history. The foods on this neighborhood tour are great as well…

They put on a good show. Quite a few laughs, but clearly slanted hard left. They claim to balanced, but they are not. To make a big deal about Trump's documents, but nothing about biden's - unfair. To mock MTG and Bobbit, but not AOC and the squad - really? If you are a committed leftist, you will probably love it, but otherwise, you may find it a bit annoying as I did.

Christian led the tour, he had insightful tidbits that he shared. I wish he had pushed us to stick together more though as when speaking you couldn't always hear what he was saying.
Food was just ok to me. Not a fan of it being served family style with a bunch of strangers all touching the food. And 2 places were Hispanic (Mexican). Would have liked better options of diversity.
Joined this tour for the Salvadorian option and they served Quesadillas. That's not even real. Serve Pupusas next time.
Enjoyed speaking to the people of the group more than the tour honestly.

Robert was a fantastic guide - he gave us a great overview of the history, architecture, and culture of Capitol Hill and was a lot of fun to be with. We got to cover a lot of ground, much of it off the main roads to places where he had interesting stories. There was a good mix of food at a variety of places - the cod fritters at our first stop were insanely good! This was our first time doing this type of tour, but it won't be our last!

So much fun walking around and seeing this re-vitalized area of DC. Enjoyed everything from the sparkling sangria to the home made pop-tarts.

The tour was perfect. Christian was very personable and informative throughout the tour. Our small tour group size of only 6 people was very nice. The walk was just as interesting passing through the neighborhood. The variety, quantity and quality of the food tastings were perfect. Didn’t need dinner that night.
