We had a great afternoon on the JAM food tour in Dayton. Chrissie had planned a great tour, what I…read morelike the most about the tour was the variety of things we did along the way. Of course we had great food and fun drinks. Chrissie takes the tour over and above. Suggesting here is a good restroom stop. This is a great place to grab a Drink in the DORA. She kept the pace relaxed but kept us on track. Overall a fun tour with interesting stops getting to know many of the fine dining restaurateurs and story of how and why they decided to open in Dayton. If you want a fun afternoon I highly recommend joining Chrissie for a tour. Chrissie really needs to plan a second tour I would buy tickets in a heart beat!

We were lucky to get reservations for JAM Foodie Tours, since they have been selling out. With…read moreonly 12 spots per tour, it's an intimate gathering in which people got to know each other a little. Chrissie did a wonderful job including everyone and making each of us feel welcome. The tour included 6 food/drink stops and a few bonus stops of interest along the way. It lasted about 3.5 hours and we walked around 2 miles total. Each of the restaurants told us a little about their establishment and then shared a delicious sampling of what they have to offer. Chrissie was a fantastic guide with a wealth of information about Dayton history as we walked. She kept us moving to keep on schedule but it never felt rushed. JAM started as just a summer venture, but hopefully they will decide to add dates this fall. We will definitely recommend them to friends.

I've lived here most of my life but didn't know even half of what she taught us as we walked through downtown. The food tour hits four iconic local restaurants along the walking tour.

Every dish was incredible, and we were very full by the conclusion of the tour. Definitely recommend, especially with a fun group or a date!

Our samples included slices of prime filet, tacos, several Asian specialties, and an ice cream sundae. More than enough for a meal!

Went spelunking in this Ohio cave, this was an amazing experience. I'm currently reading this book…read moreabout Floyd Collins, and his adventures in caves. It's got this passage in it that reads.. "staying underground for days at a time. Often they would bring out Indian relics, which Turner packed in boxes and sent away. As the weeks passed, they became more and more enthusiastic about their work. Turner was apparently well satisfied with the results. At first they talked freely about their explorations, showing us maps Turner had made of the passages they had surveyed. But then a change occurred. No longer did Turner permit us to see his maps. His survey notes were kept under lock. When they talked about their work, the conversation became guarded. From that time forward, everything was secret. Ordinarily when men make a discovery, they are eager to let the world know about it. Why the secrecy? Floyd and Turner had undoubtedly discovered something worthwhile. This was evident from their actions and enthusiasm. It seemed that they should have been proud to show their discoveries to other people. But cavers such as Floyd and Edmund Turner are not ordinary people. A cave explorer goes through unbelievably difficult places, risking his life to reach some remote passage where no man has set foot before. And once in a lifetime, with luck, he makes a truly outstanding discovery. Perhaps it is a rare and beautiful formation. The remoteness adds to its beauty. It has never been seen by any human being; maybe no one should ever see it after him. He thinks of the commercialized caves, the crowds of tourists laughing, dropping candy wrappers and cigarette butts, looking for every opportunity to pick up a souvenir or scratch initials on the rocks. Is it worthwhile? Are people so important? There below ground, hidden and silent, hallowed by the absence of man, somehow things seem right as they are." I couldn't agree more with how this business operates, I wish them nothing but success as cave owner's and tour guides. If you get the chance to travel through this amazing cave, it's a must do.

One birthday many years ago, my wife thought it would be cool to take a tour of local breweries…read more Somehow though the power of the internet, we found Cincy Brew Bus, an experiment of sorts - which we found was just starting out. I honestly remember being told it was one of the first couple tours they did. So here we are, on a used yellow school bus with a bunch of strangers having no idea what to expect and honestly expectations were becoming cloudy, but we were up for a good time no matter what. What became crystal clear rather quickly was the owner knew a lot about the brewery history of the area, appreciated it, and was on fire for the quest for great beer. Damn if that doesn't sound like a cause I can get behind! Right after the first stop of drinks, a tour and chat with a brewer with some Q&A, we all didn't seem like strangers anymore. There was so much interaction between us all during the stop, all barriers were gone. Just a bunch of folks who had that same fire, a love of great beer. Flash forward to today, obviously the school bus got retired and Cincy Brew Bus has established themselves as the premiere brewery tour company in the greater Cincy area. We've taken several tours over the years from them during various stages of growth, and no matter what ends up being different... one thing remains constant. The fire for great beer, the transfer of it's rich history -it's effect on the area, and how it all comes together in the brewing process remains the solid focus for Mike and his team. We are still friends with many of those we've taken these tours with. If you're looking for something great to do in the area, this should be high on your list. Honestly, you're missing out if you don't.
