Uptown Explorer Food Tour was inspired by the walking tours we experienced when traveling to world class European cities including Lisbon, Vienna and Rome. We developed this tour for all who have a zest for life, taste for good food and the quest to enliven their senses. We welcome visitors to Red Rock Country to explore our neighborhood while enjoying tasty food, warm smiles, vibrant colors and distinctive culinary fare found right here in Sedona, Arizona. We are looking forward to sharing our table with you.
**For groups of less than 3 guests please call us direct and we can add you to an already confirmed food tour.
“This is definitely one of the best food tours we’ve ever done. This included more stops than the typical tour with much more food. Our guide was amazing. He was genuine, friendly, knowledgeable, and a super fun tour guide. He took the time to take photos and was very personable throughout the entire tour. We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend this to anyone. Thanks so much to our guide and Sedona Food Tours!”

A great way to spend an afternoon in Sedona! Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the various cultures that merged into the food scene here. 9 courses at 4 different eateries, it was a good thing we were walking! My friend & I joined a group of 4 and we had a fun & memorable afternoon. Highly recommend!

We had a party of 6 for the tour. John did an amazing job of both entertaining us and informing us of all things Sedona! It was a ton of food – GO HUNGRY – and we had a beautiful day to walk around Uptown. We do food tours everywhere we travel and this is a top tour! Thank you for a fun day and great suggestions of places to go while we were in town.
Savor the bold, slow-stewed flavors of Birria-style brisket, a rare and authentic delight with deep Mexican roots, now making its mark in Sedona’s vibrant food scene. Once a well-kept secret of Jalisco, this dish has captured the hearts of food lovers worldwide—but here, it remains an undiscovered treasure.
This dish is an exclusive highlight of the Uptown Explorer Food Tour, offering a taste not found anywhere else in town. Tender, marinated beef, simmered for hours in a rich blend of chiles and spices, is folded into a crispy, cheese-crusted tortilla, creating the perfect balance of crunch and melt-in-your-mouth indulgence. Paired with a savory consommé, infused with the essence of slow-braised meat, this dish invites you to dip, savor, and discover a tradition that’s as rich in history as it is in flavor.
Experience this one-of-a-kind culinary adventure with Sedona Food Tours, where hidden gems and unforgettable flavors await.
