Driving Dinner Tours

While there are a few traditional downtown areas in the bigger towns of the NEK, much of the region is made up of a cluster of buildings forming that town’s core. This means many of our restaurants can’t be visited on a walking tour. But with the beautiful scenery here in Vermont, a driving tour is just as much fun.

Below, we have featured these driving tours. There are more restaurants on each one than you can probably eat your way through on one trip – but this gives you options to choose from depending on the weather, day of the week, or your food preferences.

Check them out, and let us know how your next food tour turns out.
