Entertainment From Food – We Are Indulge Idaho Food Tours
Indulge Boise Food Tours started in 2016, becoming the first Boise food and culinary tour company dedicated to helping visitors and Idaho residents enjoy the best food and cultural experience off the beaten path in the City of Trees. Idaho’s capital city has much to offer, including an incredible array of culinary artisans, skilled brewers and passionate wine makers.
Indulge Idaho is a family affair that was fostered as a result of growing up in the military, which has exposed us to places around the globe (including Spain, Greece, California, Arizona, and New York). It was those travel experiences that forged a closer bond between our family and Idaho.
Our love & appreciation for Idaho inspired us to create Idaho’s finest culinary walking tours that will be given in the most beautiful neighborhoods in the state’s iconic cities starting first with our signature Historic Downtown Boise Food & Cultural Tour (est. 2016) with more unique cultural & culinary experiences to come.
