Milwaukee's spanning RiverWalk, located in the vibrant Milwaukee neighborhood of Westown, includes a stop (or two) featuring rich German culture and food on historic Old World 3rd Street... but that's only the beginning on this tour where old traditions meet delicious new delights!
And, unlike many of our other tours, this route allows for shopping time - splurge along the way and buy local treasures at a cheese shop, sausage manufacturer, spice house, and more.
This tour offers authentic German food tastings as well as an opportunity to eat, drink and socialize your way into newer establishments in the area. Sample Milwaukee's oldest microbrewery complete with a visit to their Beer Memorabilia collection with one-of-a-kind beer and brewing artifacts while sipping on MIlwaukee-brewed beer; schlemiel and schlimazel your way across the Milwaukee River to visit The Fonz; dine on fantastic foods and more!
Our tour concludes as we tip our hat to 007, ending at a unique underground establishment where, if desired, you can spend additional time after your food tour is complete. And hey, if we're nice, we might even give you the top-secret password to get into the joint.
