Secret Food Tours: Las Vegas Strip

Secret Food Tours: Las Vegas Strip is a small-group walking tasting tour of the central Las Vegas Strip in Nevada, run by Secret Food Tours, an international walking food tour company that operates in many cities. The Las Vegas tour starts at the Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill entrance at Caesars Palace, 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, and lasts about three to three and a half hours, covering roughly one mile, much of it indoors. Groups are capped at ten guests, which keeps the pace conversational and makes it easy to hear the guide. The route has five food stops. The menu includes short rib Irish nachos and seasonal pub bites at the start, followed by a seasonal pizza, crispy eggplant parmesan and meatballs, handmade gelato or sorbet, and a final 'Secret Dish' whose identity the operator keeps undisclosed until the stop. The balance is mostly savoury, with the gelato or sorbet as the main sweet course. The price is $139.99 per person, children aged two and under are free, and an optional three-drink upgrade is available for guests aged 21 and over. Water is included. Additional drinks, transport and gratuities for the guide are not included. Between stops the guide offers commentary on the Strip's history, the design of the resorts and the stories behind the restaurants. English is the working language. Secret Food Tours generally asks guests to state dietary restrictions when booking so substitutions can be arranged, though menus at the individual restaurants limit the options, and the operator's booking page lists the available dietary adjustments. The tour suits first-time visitors who want orientation as well as food, solo travellers who prefer a small group, and families with older children. The mix of indoor and outdoor walking along Las Vegas Boulevard means comfortable footwear matters, and in summer the outdoor sections can be very hot. Bookings are made through the operator's Las Vegas page.
