Awesome New Experience! My colleagues and I experienced The Tasting Tour during our leadership retreat in Jacksonville, FL. We visited five locations and walked to each one. Each stop was better than the previous one. What an awesome new experience in a familiar location such as Jacksonville. I was thoroughly impressed. We enjoyed awesome food, cocktails and fellowship! Ask for Molly, she was a fun and knowledgeable tour guide!

IS GRATUITY INCLUDED IN THE TOUR PRICE?
Gratuity for your Tour Host is not included in the price of the tour, but can be added upon check out or extended after the tour. Customary gratuity ranges from 15%-20% of the tour price.

WHAT SHOULD WE BRING ON THE TOUR?
- Water bottle - stay hydrated during the hot summer months.
- Umbrella for shade or inclement weather. The tours go out rain or shine. However, if you drink enough wine and you won't even notice the weather! :)
- Comfortable shoes, if on a walking tour. Walking tours can cover a distance of up to and beyond 10 city blocks. There may be stairs to climb and sidewalk with inclines (without handrails).
WHAT ABOUT FOOD RESTRICTIONS AND/OR ALLERGIES?
The Chefs serve a specialty dish, of their choosing, to our guests. Due to the current state of the service industry and severe lack of employees, the venues will try to accommodate special requests (to the best of their ability), but cannot be guaranteed. If a guest is Vegan or Vegetarian, there is a high probability of salads.
What is your mask policy?
Food & Beverage Tours: Face masks for guests are not required and used at your own discretion. However, this is a GROUP activity. Our guests will travel and be seated together - as a group. Our guides carry hand sanitizer and you are also encouraged to bring your own. Please note: Florida is in phase 3. Face mask mandates have been lifted for fully vaccinated persons. However, some venues may still require masks to be used when entering and exiting the building.
Do you offer non-drinking discounts?
Sorry, 'non-drinking' discounts are NOT offered, as we provide libation substitutions.
Corks & Forks Jax
My fiance and I did the Corks & Forks tour in Riverside Jacksonville. Our host, Molly, was fun and engaging. The stops on the tour had amazing food and wine. We were the only 2 on this tour, but Molly did a fabulous job of keeping us fed and entertained. I highly recommend for either natives or tourists.
