Stacy – United States

The tour was fantastic! Marc was so knowledgeable about the Buffalo history and we loved the electric bikes. This is a must do!!!

N
Nicole – Germany

The tour was one of our highlights in Buffalo. Marc, our guide, took our group along very well and entertained us with his musical accompaniment (ukulele). He conveyed the story of his discovery of Buffalo chicken wings very well. The places we visited were also really great (and the chicken wings are simply delicious). The bike tour itself had something to it too. We explored Buffalo by bike - you should discover new cities by bike more often. A warning: you really need to be safe on your bike, otherwise it will be very cramped. Otherwise it was perfect - 5 stars for an unforgettable tour.

Full description

Earn your wings on this fresh Buffalo food tour with samples of Buffalo's tastiest chicken wings. On this incredible journey, we’ll dive deep into the history of Buffalo’s most famous and misunderstood dish and attempt to answer the question, “Who was the true inventor of the first Buffalo Wing?”.

The tour begins with a visit with Lina Brown Young, daughter Buffalo’s original King Of Wings, who shares personal photos, stories, and her dad’s long-lost mumbo wing recipe, which had been unavailable for 23 years.

We’ll continue with a stop at the Anchor Bar, where we’ll learn the wild story of how their wings were born by accident and sample their classic Buffalo Wing. Skip the tourist line and crowds and get an inside look (and taste) at this beloved wing institution.

The tour concludes with a visit to Tiny Thai, an up-and-coming food truck, where we’ll sample a legendary recipe that connects the past, present, and future of chicken wings. Experience the tour that’s been featured by the Food Network, NY Times, and Vice Media, and learn how an American food icon came to be.
