About This Tour
Explore vibrant NuLu & historic Butchertown with locally-owned Louisville Food Tours on the original Nulu food tour to taste the flavors of Louisville! Over the course of 3 immersive hours, you'll visit 6 local eateries and enjoy 8 delicious bites that showcase Louisville's culinary heritage. Dishes include biscuits & gravy with roots in the foothills of Appalachia, Kentucky-style fried chicken, a Louisville BBQ dish, bourbon balls, and a Prohibition-era Hot Brown gravy. You'll also enjoy tastings of barrel-aged craft beer and a refreshing alcoholic slushy featuring Kentucky's beloved Ale8 soda. As you wander through the historic streets of two of Louisville's oldest neighborhoods, you’ll uncover the stories behind the city’s rich history, visit a historic home once occupied by Thomas Edison, sample a unique confection inspired by a Victorian actress, and trace the paths of the immigrants who shaped Louisville. This tour typically sells out. Reserve your spot early and come hungry!
