Cajun Food Tours in Lafayette

Paprika, cayenne, black pepper, onion, shrimp, and crawfish. A roux of butter and flour. These are the tastes of Cajun food, a style of cuisine exclusive to southwest Louisiana.
Lafayette, the Heart of Cajun Country, is the place in southwest Louisiana to get your spoonful of Cajun flavors. It wasn’t named one of the “Tastiest Towns in the South" by Southern Living for nothing. Oh, and did we mention Lafayette was also called the “Best U.S. Food City” in Rand McNally/USA Today’s Best of the Road? Pretty impressive, if you ask us!
Tracking down individual restaurants can be difficult. This one has 4.5 stars but only 15 reviews. This one has been around a long time, but the menu is hard to find. With the daily tours offered by Cajun Food Tours, those days of paralysis by analysis are over! All you have to do is hop on the tour bus and you’ll experience the finest flavors Louisiana has to offer. 

Get your fill of popular dishes like gumbo, etouffee, seafood, boudin, king cake, and more as you visit numerous locally owned authentic Cajun eateries while your passionate guide brings the culture to life.  

 Depending on your personal tastes–pun very much intended–Cajun Food Tours offers a variety of tour options. On the "Original Cajun Food Tour," you’ll visit five of Lafayette's favorite restaurants (there are more than 30 on the long list of possibilities) and get to know the Acadiana region’s culinary profile. If you choose the “Breaux Bridge Walking Food Tour," you'll meet in the historic downtown for a comfortable stroll down the streets of this 200-year-old settlement. You’ll make stops in the celebrated eateries along the way for a mouth-watering experience. Cajun food can get messy, so we won’t judge if you want to BYOB (bring your own bib). 

The "Around the World in Acadiana Taste Tour” takes you on a tasting adventure “beyond the borders” of Louisiana as you visit local restaurants that serve up flavors from across the globe. Not many people know it, but Lafayette is a hidden gem for great Asian, Latin, Mediterranean, and European cuisines. 

For a most memorable day, book the "All-Day Cajun Experience."  Not only will you eat like a local, but this day also includes a Cajun swamp boat tour in beautiful Lake Martin, Cajun dancing lessons, a guided tour of the Vermilionville Living History Museum, and more.
Book your unforgettable experience with Cajun Food Tours for a day full of fun, passion, great food, and new friendships.
