Looking to discover the tastier side of Downtown Asheville? We’ve got you covered with our Eats and Drinks Detour! This self-guided scavenger hunt experience will take you to some of Asheville’s best restaurants as well as downtown’s most popular watering holes. From breweries and cideries to sweet treats and locally sourced fare, this tour is perfect for those looking to explore Asheville’s food and drink scene.
How does it work??
Your group will kick off at a designated spot with a welcome toast and brief run-down of the scavenger hunt rules from your personal tour coordinator. From there, you will guess clues and unscramble letters for a personalized, self-guided adventure through downtown Asheville! Each stop you visit will hold a clue to your next tasty experience. Your group can expect to experience 6 different establishments, all with either a tasty treat or a delicious beverage- and sometimes both! In addition, get ready for fun team activities and surprises for your group along the way.
Each Detour lasts approximately 3 hours and covers roughly 1.5 miles of downtown Asheville. Your Detour can begin any time between 11am-4pm.
