Iowa Food Tour

The idea for Iowa Food Tour was sparked by a deep love for travel —and a passion for experiencing each destination through its history, culture, and especially its food. It all began with a food tour in Scottsdale, Arizona. That one flavorful adventure opened our eyes (and taste buds) to the incredible way food connects people to a place. From that moment on, food tours became a regular part of our travels. Eventually, a question took root: What if we brought this experience home? Inspired by the food tour experience in Scottsdale and fueled by a love for our hometown, we began imagining a food tour set right here in Pella, Iowa— a place rich in Dutch heritage, hometown pride, and local flavor. After plenty of research, conversations, and planning, Iowa Food Tour came to life.
