Origins of Sacramento Food & Cultural Walking Tour (April - June)
The Origins of Sacramento Food and Cultural Walking Tour explores the very beginnings of Sacramento,from Sutter's colony Nueva Helvecia to the Fabulous Forties, with tastings of the best dishes the immigrants brought with them. You'll learn about how the many diverse groups forged our great city and created its agricultural dominance. Participants enjoy a 3.25 hour, 2.5 mile flat walking route past historical national landmarks, gorgeous mission style churches and famed architecture throughout period neighborhoods. Liberally sprinkled among these sites are ethnic eateries that echo the region's diversity. Come taste Sacramento's amazing authentic foods hailing from far flung lands such as Spain, Czechoslovakia, Turkey, and China's Szechuan province.
Our Origins of Sacramento Food Tour finds us meandering through two very historical but popular neighborhoods; Midtown's Sutters District and East Sacramento's Fabulous Forties. Stroll under tree-lined streets while you explore hidden gem eateries. Meet the talented and passionate chefs while sampling their creations a foodie's dream come true!
