Omaha Culinary Tours

A really good time and well worth the money. We did the Blackstone tour. Visited Farnam House, Crescent Moon, Stirnella, Noli's and Coneflower Creamery. Had plenty to eat and left full. The tour guide was fun and informative. I'm looking forward to doing another tour.

Wanted something of an introduction to the local food in Omaha for a first time visit, so I booked the Old Market walking tour and it was fabulous! Shelly was fun, approachable and well-informed. We stopped and tasted at six places with a nice variety of foods and drinks. Plus, we got a nice history of the preservation of the Old Market district and the rising food scene in Omaha. Thoroughly impressed. Do food tours a lot when I travel (which is often) and this is one of the best in a long while.

Whether you want to get to know like minded people, get a variety of taste sensations in one fell swoop, get acquainted with culinary purveyors you didn't even know about or are visiting Omaha and want more than the run of the mill attraction, this is the way to go! My boyfriend and i live here but are professional hermits and never do the things we say we're going to. A friend invited us to come along and finally felt like the people we always wanted to be...people on TV! Socializing, tasting, discussing and laughing but most of all, marveling at all the new, fabulously modern places we have around the corner, like the gorgeous yet earthy Grey Plume and the innovative yet inviting Brix! In three hours we walked to 6 different locations and all the while our adorable tour guide gave us insights into the history of our city and of the establishments we were about to see. The tours will continue to expand geographically and thematically so the possibilities are endless. My boyfriend and I are in our 40's and finally had our first real grown up experience as foodies in what I now realize is a culturally diverse and ever changing city. My Omaha! Thank you Omaha Culinary Tours!

Shelly our tour guide was awesome!Love the food tour downtown Old Market area. Can't wait to do another tour. Awesome time with awesome food. Went to restaurants I never really knew were around. Learned a lot about Omaha through out the tour also. If you have a chance, try booking a tour as you will enjoy it.

We did the Blackstone tour and had a fantastic time. There were 10 people total on our tour, including the tour guide. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and had something interesting to say on every stop. We went to a lot of great places: Farnam House brewery, Stirnella, Butterfish, Noli's, and Coneflower Creamery. It was a great way to spend an afternoon and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to try new restaurants without risking much! I'd go back to every single place and have a full meal.

Didn't know what to expect when my daughter bought me a Brews and Bites Tour of the Old Market package for two. I was pleasantly surprised! Our host/guide was friendly, interactive and had fun facts about Omaha. The local craft beers were excellent and the sample portions were delicious. I would definitely recommend this Tour for a nice night out to try locally cooked cuisine and local brews!

Three of us went on the Blackstone tour. We have been on multiple food tours in several states. We enjoy them because they provide delicious food, information about the restaurant, as well as the history and architecture of the area. This tour did provide delicious food, but nothing else. If we had been given a list of the stops, we could have done the tour by ourselves. Also most food tours are limited to twelve to fifteen people, while there were 24 on this tour--way too many in my opinion.

Oh my, Kristen is amazing. A professional and knowledgeable individual with experience and personality. I would recommend OCT to anyone visiting Omaha. We may stop and do this for our next visit. I can't think of a better way to tour Omaha. We will be taking our bull customers here.

Lovely Saturday afternoon spent in Omaha's Blackstone District. Food was very, very good -- especially the Pizza at Noli's (which I am still craving and may get for lunch today). Guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. First stop was Farnam House Brewery where we sampled some beer, received a tour of the brewing facilities and enjoyed hearty sections of their house burger. Next it was on to the Crescent Moon to enjoy their "Best of Omaha" Reuben sandwich. Sample sizes here were also generous. We moved on to the highlight of the tour (for me anyway) Noli's Pizza. It was Pizza nirvana. A nice sized pie with 6 or seven variations -- something for everyone. All that I tasted were excellent so I am not sure what I will order upon my next visits. And I do mean visits. Finally it was on to dessert. Ice Cream from Coneflower creamery. Many unusual offerings. Being lactose intolerant I selected Sorbet and it was very good. But I really, really, really wanted to try the coffee ice cream. Those who had it claimed it to be amazing. I've done many culinary tours in many cities and this is the first time I left feeling like I didn't need to stop for a snack on the way home. As such, it is well worth the money. I'm looking forward to trying some of the other tours that are offered.

Took a walking tour of 6 Omaha restaurants/businesses in midtown this morning. We had delicious tastings at each location. The staff of Omaha Culinary Tours is very professional, courteous, gracious and knowledgeable. In spite of the bitter cold, it was great fun! I understand that soon there will be an Omaha legacy steakhouse tour and an Omaha chocolate tour. Will definitely be signing up for both of those.
