1038, "Gourmet Tours"
Posted by goodfoodgirl, Sun Apr-15-07 06:44 PM
I'd like your feedback on this business idea. I live in the San Francisco area, with Napa and Sonoma close by. Thousands of people have this city on their "To Visit" list every year. It is also an area of fantastic diverse food. I'm thinking of organizing Gourmet Tours, which would include upscale transportation to various restaurants. As an example, we would visit one restaurnat for an appetizer, one for an entree, and one for a special dessert. LEt's say this tour would run from 6-9pm. Have you ever done such a thing? How much would you be willing to pay for this? (I'm a foodie, so the food would be $$$ but it could be more or less depending on the crowd). How interested would you be in such a tour when on vacation?

Thanks

I like this idea. I think the benefit would be visiting an unfamiliar town and actually getting to experience a variety of locations in a short period of time. Having someone prearrange the reservations and basically take care of it all is a HUGE benefit. The bonus of the transportation to each place is nice too. I can see this working in most major cities, actually. I am unsure on price without knowing what your expenses and time devoted to each party would be... I did want you to know that I really think your idea has merit and look forward to hearing more about it.
