Taste your way through Cincinnati's celebrated Over-the-Rhine neighborhood — craft breweries, James Beard–recognized restaurants, and legendary chili stops on a guided culinary journey through one of America's greatest food cities.
What to expect
The tour winds through Over-the-Rhine, a UNESCO-recognized concentration of Italianate architecture now buzzing with Michelin-radar kitchens and craft taprooms. Guides are passionate Cincinnati natives who connect every bite to the city's layered history, from 19th-century German brewmasters to today's award-winning chefs. Expect 6–8 generous tastings — craft lager, Skyline Chili, artisan charcuterie, craft cocktails, and more — across a leisurely 2.5–3 hour stroll. Group sizes are kept small for genuine conversation and unhurried enjoyment.
Good to know
Departs from central OTR, a short rideshare from the riverfront. Book directly on the American Legacy Tours site; food tours sell out weeks ahead. Wear comfortable shoes; inform the operator of any dietary restrictions at booking.
