Las Vegas Food Tour

One of the best parts of coming to Las Vegas is the smorgasbord of food options at one's fingertips. From the big, glitzy restaurants on the Las Vegas Strip to the charming, smaller boutique restaurants, there is so much to experience!

In fact, there is such an overwhelming amount of options that it is almost impossible for out-of-towners to feel like they made the best choices or they got the most out of their dining options – after all, trying new food places is a big part of going on vacation, and if your time is limited, there's no way to get the full scope of what this city has to offer.

Las Vegas Food Tours is a newer concept that eliminates the guesswork by giving diners an insider's take on some of the best culinary spots in Las Vegas. This tour provides a variety of guided and self-guided tours; guests can navigate through several dining options in some of the best food hotspots in the city.

Whether you're looking for a new date night idea, a fun night out with friends, or to further your culinary knowledge in Las Vegas, Finger Licking Foodie Tours is the ultimate food adventure you didn't know you were even looking for!

About Las Vegas Foodie Tours

Finger Licking Foodie Tours is a Las Vegas-based company that boasts a series of food tours featuring some of the most iconic restaurants both on and off The Strip that has recently been featured on massive media outlets like CNN, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Las Vegas Review-Journal, and more.

Each food tour consists of three (3) stops, featuring signature dishes from chef-driven restaurants, a virtual guide, and optional upgrades to sample pre-selected signature cocktails from each destination. Guests must be over the age of 21 and provide appropriate identification to avail of alcoholic beverages.

*The final net price for all tour packages includes all restaurant gratuities allowing guests to book with ease and peace of mind, ready for a night of indulgence!

HOW DOES IT WORK?

• Guests select the time they want to start their tour from available timeslots and are then sent a virtual itinerary with departure and arrival times for each venue.
• Guests can select an optional upgrade to include signature cocktails or – with the ARIA tour – a VIP helicopter experience, including a limo pickup from ARIA Resort & Casino.

Each tour package features a different set of restaurants in the area selected and varies from night to night; you won't know which exact restaurants you'll be dining at until you get your itinerary, which is part of the fun!

For the guided tours, you will be meeting a friendly and knowledgeable host to guide you from spot to spot as you embark on your foodie adventure. For self-guided tours, you will receive a virtual itinerary of your destinations + other hotspots in the area if you want to explore after your meal!
