It’s important to know the difference between an OTA and a Tour Operator
Trip Advisor is an OTA.  OTA is an acronym for Online Travel Agency.  Agencies, such as Trip Advisor, Viator, Bookum, Airbnb, GetYourGuide, BeMyGuest, Expedia specialize in the sale of tours and activities with high commissions!

My husband and I are Tour Operators. We created Riverside Food Tours in 2016.  We only sell our tours.  There’s no middle man so you receive the lowest price  Plus we guarantee a full refund for any reason as long as we are notified 48 hours prior to the start of your tour. We have hundreds of 5-Star reviews on Trip Advisor, so many people find us on their site.  Here’s the problem:
When you book through an OTA,  you will pay 15-30% more than if you book directly through Riverside Food Tours.  Please Beware! For the lowest price, BOOK DIRECT through the company.
