History
Ventura Food Tours opened for business in the summer of 2011. Owner Allison Costa is a local foodwriter and lover of all things eating and drinking in Ventura, Ojai, and Santa Barbara . Starting Ventura Food Tours, a food walking tour company, is yet another way she shares this passion for food, her love of the area, and some of her favorite food finds with others. Come on one of our tours and join us as we eat our way through town.
Specialties
Ventura Food Tours offers guided food walking tours, lasting between three and four hours, in various locations around Ventura County and Santa Barbara. Each tour stops at 5-6 different locations, where guests will enjoy tastings of some of the area's best food finds. As we walk the tour route, you'll meet chefs, entrepreneurs, and learn about the history of the area. Our tasting tours are intimate and informal, giving you a behind the scenes look into some of our gourmet food producers and culinary purveyors - chocolates, tacos, baked goods, local wine, and gourmet treats are just the beginning.
