Christine Williams
Managing Partner/Lead Tour Guide
Christine is a lifelong entrepreneur, has a passion for great dining experiences and is a wanderlust with a love of traveling. Having been raised in a bi-cultural family with parents living in two countries, traveling to Europe often as a child was necessary. Christine grew up in North Carolina, graduated from UNC-Chapel HIll and has been a fulltime Florida resident since 1993.
Sarasota is her hometown by intention and purpose. The unique lifestyle of Sarasota is the perfect blend of her childhood: small town living combined with a vibrant downtown filled with international visitors and residents and endless outdoor community events.
Christine is proud to share the Sarasota community with every guest that chooses an experience with Sunset Food Tours.
What to Expect:
A fun evening of walking, learning and eating! These experiences are guided walking tours led by an area expert. You will learn a bit of history, folklore, fun facts, the food scene, current events & insight into the lifestyle. There are 2-3 restaurant samplings/light bites that provide a variety of flavors and ambience. These are quick sit-down food stops, designed to introduce guests to local popular establishments. There may be pop-bys at other local businesses and landmarks along the route. Tours require a total minimum of 4 guests to host an experience. Tours should be booked in advance; they sell out and restaurant partners require us to reserve seating at least 72 hours in advance. Tour guides are customarily compensated mostly from gratuity.
