Delicious food tour with amazing local history. Jack and Emily did an amazing job. Highly recommend
It was fun to be a tourist in my own city. I saw and learned things I never knew. I like that it was different sweet treats: donut, milkshake, croissant, and baklava. I loved that the milkshake was very “Pittsburgh” with the strawberry pretzel salad shake. The guides were very friendly.
I liked the stops and how we had a good walk between.
Incredible sweet treat and history tour in Pittsburgh, PA! There were 4 food stops that included donuts, milkshakes, croissants, and baklava. Everything was delicious and from locally founded spots! In addition to the history about the bakeries, there were some additional history stops including Point State Park and the William Omni Penn Hotel. Highly recommend!
Great walking tour of the burgh with lots of history, sweets, and laughs. Brought my pup!
