History
Maine Foodie Tours was established in 2009, after owner/director Pam Laskey moved back to her home state of Maine and found the town of Portland to be full of culinary talent that offered great potential to an entrepreneurial spirit willing to showcase it! She began the walking tours as a one-woman show, featuring many foods that are native to Maine, and creative interpretations, prepared in delicious ways. In 2011, Maine Foodie Tours branched out to Kennebunkport, in 2012, Bar Harbor, and in 2015 Rockland adding more foodie guides along the way. The Portland Culinary Walking Tours itinerary is the base for the primary tour that runs in each city, such as the Savor Bar Harbor Tour. The Happy 2-Hour Tour in Bar Harbor was first offered in the summer of 2015..
Specialties
Exploring the local food and beverage scene is our thing! Our guests are introduced to some of our favorite locales in Kennebunkport and the Lower Village. We offer a mix of tasting experiences with quintessential Maine dishes and shops who specialize in culinary artisan goods. Tours are not only edible and imbibable but also educational. We offer a locals perspective, share nuggets of knowledge, points of interest and history. Tours are scheduled regularly May - October in the Kennebunks. We also offer private tour options for groups of eight or more. Since one good tour deserves another, tour itineraries are also available seasonally in Rockland and Bar Harbor, while we operate in Portland all year long.
