Submission declined on 31 October 2024 by KylieTastic (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

Secret Food Tours is an international food tourism company specializing in curated culinary tours across over 55 cities worldwide, including major hubs like Paris, New York, Tokyo, and Buenos Aires. Founded in 2013, the company offers unique, guided experiences led by local experts who introduce guests to traditional and "hidden" culinary spots. Each tour focuses on local food culture, covering both popular and lesser-known dishes. One highlight of each tour is the "Secret Dish," a unique item revealed only to participants during the experience.

Company Overview

Secret Food Tours operates as a branch of Essor Ltd., headquartered in London, UK. It has grown rapidly, known for its city-specific offerings that allow guests to explore food as a cultural lens while supporting local businesses. The tours are highly rated, with over 37,000 five-star reviews on platforms like TripAdvisor. The company has expanded to cities across Europe, Asia, North America, and Latin America, each featuring distinct themes and local specialties tailored to the regional food scene.

Unique Features

In addition to showcasing local delicacies, Secret Food Tours places emphasis on cultural immersion. The guides offer insights into the history, preparation, and cultural significance of the dishes. Tour groups are kept small for an intimate experience, and participants often gain access to off-the-beaten-path spots typically frequented by locals rather than tourists.

Recognition

The company has received international recognition from travel and food publications, including mentions in Forbes and The New York Times, for its innovative approach to food tourism. It is frequently highlighted as a top recommendation for travelers looking to experience authentic local cuisine.
