Took tour with my family for my 24 year old's birthday. We had a great time. Food by Foot Culinary Walking Tour was guided by Betsy Cartier who is extremely knowledgeable about the Beaufort area and personable...like going with your favorite aunt. The food tour was a progressive meal starting with appetizers, then entree and finishing with dessert. All food was tasty but the dessert was amazing. We visited local shops along the way and strolled through the historic Beaufort while Betsy discussed the history of the homes and anectodes. David, Betsy's husband, met up with us from time to time as he led his own tour. The two bring their own unique style so I'm sure either Betsy or David would be great tour guides. Since Hungry Tours has other tours including by bikes we will go again...and again. Thank you Betsy and David for a fun afternoon. read more

We had a fantastically delicious tour with Betsy in Beaufort! If you want to know more about this quaint and beautiful town, while sampling foods at the locals' favorite spots--- the culinary walking tour is a must. It was wonderful spending over 3+ hours, walking through a progressive food experience. Appetizers first at Finz (fresh- catch tacos)...then Front Street Grill for lunch...Clawson's for huge desserts....and all with the best tour guide providing us the rich history and folklore of Beaufort. We will definitely come back for a few more of her tours--so much fun, learning and eating all rolled into one! read more

My husband booked the Walking Food Tour with Betsy. I'm in my third trimester, otherwise would have booked the bike tour! She was a phenomenal tour guide and host of the town of Beaufort. We learned so much that we wouldn't have had the opportunity to know about if we didn't do her tour. She takes the time to get to know the community and stories behind everything to be able to share her knowledge about the beautiful and super cute town. We definitely recommend this tour and wouldn't blink an eye to do it again! read more

My aunt and I went on the Hidden Beaufort biking tour and loved it. Betsy was very accommodating when I called to schedule it. The tour was fun, and informative. I've been coming to Beaufort for years and still learned a lot. You really get to see and enjoy the historic town. Betsy even took our pictures for us and gave us a postcard at the end. Highly recommend taking this tour. Betsy is a great host, personable, knowledgeable and fun! read more

Well... tonight we toast to Betsy (and baby Dean) for our amazing food tour today. The company was fabulous but Betsy did a phenomenal job of picking fabulous food and had great stories to share. We are so thankful that we RSVPd months ago for this special friends weekend!! Crab cakes to shrimp tacos to delicious appetizers and warmed desserts- all were delish! Thanks, Betsy!! read more

If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. I called to book the tour and spoke to David on the phone. We was quite possibly the nicest person I have ever spoken to...ever! Not only did he help book the tour for my husband and me (who have never been to Beaufort), he offered suggestions on where to eat and some things to do while we were here. The tour itself was great! We did the culinary bike tour. We stopped at 3 different restaurants - one for appetizers, one for lunch and one for dessert. The food was all delicious! In between, Betsy toured us around Old Beaufort and pointed out some historical homes and gave us the history of the town. We went to a really quaint olive oil shop and a wine shop with some really neat stuff that we were able to sample. The bike ride was leisurely and fun on beach cruisers. We got the entire tour in before a storm rolled in which was perfect! I would highly recommend David & Betsy for anyone visiting Beaufort. It was 3 hours that we really enjoyed! read more

Such a great couple that makes every tour personal!!! Definitely will take another tour in the future :)

Our bike tour with Betsy was amazing. She took time to find a spot to see the beautiful horses, and paid extra attention to every detail. She had no problem giving us a breakfast recommendation. We cannot wait to come back and do a culinary tour with Hungry Town. Thank you for making our anniversary so very special! read more

The Hidden Beaufort Tour was amazing! It was a great way to see everything this beautiful city has to offer while learning it's old history. We had the best time with the owner, Betsy. She took us all over the city while pointing out historical sites, landmarks, and restaurants. It was such a beautiful day that we were lucky to see the horses in the distance on Rachel Carson Reserve. Betsy is a fantastic storyteller! My wife and I can't wait to visit again and take another tour with Betsy. I highly recommend booking the tour on your first day visiting. It's a must when visiting Beaufort, NC. read more

My family and I were traveling to Atlantic Beach for the first time. I researched things to do in the area and found out about Hungry Town Tours. My girls, 18 and 20, are huge Nicholas Sparks fans so we decided to sign them up for The Ride to Remember Tour, and my husband and I planned to do a food tour. Due to the pandemic the food tours weren't running so we quickly watched the two films mentioned in the tour description and showed up for the ride. Betsy was fantastic! So warm and knowledgeable not just about the Sparks' books but about the whole town of Beaufort! We had a blast and can't wait to try another tour next summer! Such a perfect way to spend a morning with your family!! read more

This is a can't miss when you come to Beaufort (NC not SC). David and Betty took us on an evening bike ride throughout downtown Beaufort. The pace was leisurely and they stopped often to tell interesting bits of info. We even went by the house Blackbeard was rumored to have stayed. There are differently themed tours going out throughout the day, making this a great option to try multiple times. We really want to try the culinary tour that stops at local places to eat and drink along the way. You really can't go wrong with a Hungry Town Tours adventure. read more

Great experience and the owners really care. The bikes are in great shape and each bike has a unique name (see my picture). The rates are very reasonable at $5 per hour for a two hour minimum. Beaufort is small and so we were able to ride around the whole town in two hours. We didn't do a guided tour but next time we will since we aren't from the area. read more

Had an amazing time on the Ride to Remember tour! Betsy is such a lovely and knowledgeable tour guide. Because she knows the town, its history, and the people in it so well, we got to hear the most fascinating stories from a perspective that makes you feel like part of the community. Such an incredible experience. Will definitely be back for the culinary tour! read more

Had such a great time on the bike tour! We chose the culinary tour on a Monday. The selections were a little different that day since a handful of places in town are closed on Monday, but Betsy and David both are very knowledgeable about the town and made great decisions in where we biked to and what we ate. Both also have a background in hospitality, and it shows. You feel welcomed from the moment you first talk to them. I had found their website online and had decided to walk into their store before we booked. We spoke to David who didn't pressure us at all, just explained the tour options and gave us some info. (They have a great weather policy too! Basically just work with you to get you what you want, if it's a light rain they can turn it into a walking tour, reschedule you or even give you a refund). We endes up calling later that day to book. We toured with one other couple, which made it a nice intimate event. Betsy is a true hostess, the hospitality is not an act, it truely runs through her blood. Our tour consisted of wine tasting, olive oil and balsamic tasting, and toured around 3 restaurants to get an app, entree and dessert, all were delicious. We also biked around Beaufort and Betsy explained history of the homes, we even visited in front of black beards rumoured home. The two of them are so incorporated into the community you would think they had lived there their entire lives! My only suggestion would be to have options for more biking, maybe the tour we chose just happened to have less biking to make time for more eating, but I want to work off those calories! I would recommend these tours to anyone visiting, they truely have options for everyone and are soo accommodating! read more

We had a nice culinary tour with Dave. We were staying in Emerald Isle for our 'minimoon' and decided morning of that we should check out Beaufort, NC. We called around 11:45am on a Wednesday asking if we could take the culinary tour that day, and though we hadn't made reservations beforehand he was more than happy to oblige. He said take our time getting there, and we showed up around 12:20pm. We visited 3 restaurants - one for appetizers, one for lunch, and one for dessert - and also visited a local olive oil shop and wine shop. He also took us on a bike tour of the town, and gave us a bit of history, too. All in all we enjoyed the 4-hours we spent with Dave - he provided a personal touch to our day in Beaufort! read more

You will not be disappointed!! Betsy & David have thought of everything to make your tour something you will never forget. Every minute was enchanting. Both were so knowledgeable and it was clear this wasn't just a "job" for them. They live and breathe small town charm and hospitality. My husband and I ended up having a private Ride to Remember tour (perfect for any Nicholas Sparks fan). I truly felt his novels come to life and as though I was living in one of his stories. I really hope to return, but for now I will savor these beautiful memories! read more

We took the historic tour of Beaufort with Betsy for our girls weekend. Such a beautiful day and a fantastic time learning about the history of Beaufort. Betsy was knowledgeable and fun! Highly recommend!! read more

Betsy and David both have a hospitality background and it shows. They are consummate professionals. We were there visiting our son and daughter and spouses and did the historic tour of Beaufort. A must for anyone visiting this quaint oceanfront town along the intracoastal. We learned the history of the community, got a tour of historic homes and cemetery and learned a lot about Blackbeard the pirate and Rachel Carson the environmentalist. Two local legends! Betsy could be the Mayor she knew Everyone by first name and made us feel like locals. Highly recommend this bike tour. read more

I don't know why I waited so long to do one of their tours! Girls' weekend at Atlantic Beach. One person had done one of the tours previously and loved it. We did the Bike, Brunch and Bubbles tour on Sunday, and it was a blast. Food was excellent (Beaufort Grocery). Betsy led our tour and was so much fun and knew so much about Beaufort. She and her husband own the business and offer several different tours and will even customize one for you. Can't wait to go back for the Nicholas Sparks tour! read more

We had a group of 6 take the historic Beaufort bike tour with Hungry Town Tours. We had a GREAT experience. The owners/tour guide was very knowledgable, friendly, and professional. The bikes are in great condition and very comfortable to ride. This is one of the best bike tours I've taken of all the places I've been. The tour is very interesting and done at a nice comfortable pace. The owner can also make some great reccomendations for things to do and places to eat. They also do a culinary tour so their food recommendation are probably very reliable. read more

Relaxed and informative! My husband and I took the culinary bike tour, although there are several different kinds of tours available. Owners and tour guides Betsy and David LOVE what they do, and it shows from the moment you arrive. Being a petite gal with even shorter legs, I'm always a little trepidatious and resigned to the fact that rented bikes will be a bit too big for me. Not so here! Betsy not only had a stylish and well-maintained bike available for a lady of my size, but also made sure both of us were comfortable on our rides with a quick test run through the side parking lot before embarking on the tour. Ahhhh.... We went to 5 culinary stops total, and it was clear the storeowners, staff, and townspeople had a familiar and positive relationship with the company. Betsy is a wealth of knowledge, and we loved the personalized feel of the whole tour, from learning about Beaufort's past and present to just enjoying the views from the gorgeous decks of some of the restaurants. And riding bikes in the neighborhood while getting a history lesson is a great way to spend an afternoon, indeed! read more

What a way to explore Beaufort. We booked our private tour on our first full day in Beaufort. They were great and worked with our schedule. We learned so much about the history of the town and the awesome architecture of the houses. We loved it. Was the perfect way to start off our weekend. And the owners were so great and gave us all the info on local places to dine and other things to do too. Really can't say enough! read more

Betsy cannot be nicer, more informative and fun! Our tour was 8 family members all female! Our bike tour day was raining at first, we walked to our destinations (with shopping in between). Each culinary stop was greeted by friendly faces, great food and stories of the island. As the eating went on, the sun came out & Betsy loaded us on our bikes. Very manageable ride. If my travels bring me back to NC I will certainly go again! You won't be disappointed read more

I've been spending time every summer on the Crystal Coast for over 30 years and visit Beaufort yearly. Today we took the Culinary Bike Tour with Betsy and had a terrific experience! Not only did we enjoy some of the best eats in town, but we learned tons as we cruised the backstreets stopping often at points of interest while Betsy gave us historical info and local lore. Great for couples and families with children. Well worth the price too. read more

This was without a doubt one of the best things my sisters and I did on our vacation. They offer a walking tour but we took their culinary bike tour. The owner and tour guide, Betsy, is awesome! She is so friendly, knowledgeable, and informative! It felt like we were with a longtime friend! Her choices of restaurants for us to have our food was superb! The food was fresh and delicious! The views from the restaurants were great! Betsy was greeted with great admiration from everyone everywhere we went and was treated warmly like a friend! She made each stop a great experience and made sure we were completely satisfied! I would love to do this tour with her again sometime. If you're looking for a different kind of tour with a great outcome and a wonderful tour guide, I highly recommend calling Hungry Town Tours and making a reservation! You will be so pleased! Thank you Betsy for a great time! read more

Our bike tour was a fantastic way to see and learn about the city of Beaufort! We enjoyed Betsy and Mark's company immensely. Our culinary&history tour left us full and happy. We visited 5 unique restaurants/shops along the waterfront as well as a short tour of the historic neighborhood off the shore. Adorable beach bikes too. Thank you Betsy!! read more

We had the most amazing time doing the historic Beaufort bike tour! I went with a group of 11 girls for a bachelorette and they made it such a wonderful experience! The owners were so sweet and I plan on doing another tour when we return for her wedding! I am not a strong bike rider so they had a scooter for me to ride during the tour which was so thoughtful and allowed my to be able to join the girls for the tour! read more
