Activity itinerary

Old Pasadena

  • 3h 30m
Explore the original commercial district in Pasadena, first settled in the late 1800's. Old Pasadena, best known for the Tournament of Roses Parade, elegant architecture and cultural landmarks, is also a place for exceptional and diverse dining. On this food walking tour, a local, knowledgeable guide will lead you on a delightful epicurean stroll through the hidden alleyways and charming courtyards of this US Historic District. You’ll enjoy 8 tasting stops, ranging from Middle Eastern falafel and Indian specialities to a California olive oil, an authentic Venzuelan cafe and handmade photo-worthy cupcakes.. Your guide will keep you entertained between tasting stops with engaging stories of how Old Pasadena transitioned from the centre of town to the local skid row to the one of the most successful urban renewal projects in the country. You'll never think of Pasadena as simply the home of the Rose Parade again!
