The experience

The tour moves through Greenville's mid-town area, stopping at three distinct historic venues where you'll taste cocktails and appetizers prepared by the restaurants' executive chefs. Along the way, your guide shares historical points of interest about the city, including the Mice on Main, and explains how Greenville has developed into the destination it is today. The venues themselves are part of the story: each one reflects the charming downtown character that defines this southern city.

At each stop, you're treated as a VIP. The general managers and executive chefs greet you personally, and the service is designed around making you feel pampered rather than rushed. You'll meet other foodies on the tour, so the evening becomes a shared experience with people who came for the same reason you did. The whole tour runs 2 hours, which keeps the pace relaxed enough to actually talk to the people around you and absorb what you're learning about the city.

This works as both a date night and a way to see Greenville if you're new to the city. The cocktails and appetizers are included, and the tour is wheelchair accessible throughout all areas and surfaces. Dietary restrictions and allergies can be noted when you book.

What’s included

• Three cocktails and three appetizers across the three venues.
