Tripadvisor ranked the Boston experience #5 among Food Tours in the United States for 2026, placing it among the highest-ranked food tours in the country.

The Edinburgh experience has also earned recognition from Tripadvisor, extending Underground Donut Tour's award-winning food tour presence beyond the United States and into the United Kingdom.

Three Cities, One Award-Winning Experience

Although Boston, Seattle and Edinburgh each have their own history, culture and food traditions, Underground Donut Tour's approach remains consistent: use great local food as a way to help travelers experience a destination.

Each tour combines food tastings with local storytelling and sightseeing, creating an experience that goes beyond simply visiting restaurants or bakeries.

"Being recognized by Tripadvisor in Boston, Seattle and Edinburgh is an incredible honor," said Jeff Woelker, owner of Underground Donut Tour. "Each city is completely different, and that's one of the things we love about what we do. Our guides and local food partners bring the personality of each destination to life, and our travelers get to experience that through some really great donuts and pastries."

Woelker added, "These awards are ultimately a reflection of our guests. Their reviews and feedback have helped us build these tours, and we're incredibly grateful to everyone who has joined us and shared their experience."

Tripadvisor's Best of the Best

Tripadvisor's Travelers' Choice Best of the Best Awards are based on traveler reviews and opinions collected over a 12-month period. Tripadvisor describes the Best of the Best winners as experiences that represent the top 1% of listings on its platform.

The 2026 awards also mark the introduction of Food Tours as a Best of the Best category, recognizing the growing popularity of culinary experiences among travelers.
