Looking for a Dallas food tour that’s anything but ordinary? Incloodie Food Tour’s Tejano Trails offers an unforgettable mix of flavor, history, and culture as you explore the vibrant Oak Cliff neighborhood. Led by founder Lauren Williams, this walking tour takes you beyond the basics and straight into the heart of the city’s Hispanic heritage, with every bite telling a story.
Come hungry, bring your walking shoes, and get ready for an experience that goes way beyond the plate.
1. A gluten-free Dallas food tour that’s big on flavor
Many traditional Hispanic dishes are naturally gluten-free—corn-based tamales, tacos, stews, and sauces that go back generations. If you’ve ever struggled to enjoy food while managing dietary restrictions, this tour was made with you in mind. Lauren started Incloodie after being diagnosed with gluten intolerance at 22, and she knows firsthand what it’s like to feel left out at the table.
Here, you’ll enjoy authentic, mouthwatering food without worrying about what’s safe to eat. This isn’t “gluten-free” as a label—it’s gluten-free by tradition, and every bite tells a story.
2. Explore Oak Cliff, a neighborhood full of soul
Get off the beaten path and into Oak Cliff—a vibrant, evolving part of Dallas that’s bursting with history, street art, and serious culinary gems.
You’ll pass indie shops, murals, and historic architecture as you wind your way from stop to stop. Along the way, you’ll learn about the legacy of Little Mexico and other cultural touchstones that shaped the neighborhood. It’s the kind of place you’d probably never find on your own—and that’s what makes it so special.
3. You’ll walk, taste, and sip your way through the city
This Dallas food tour isn’t rushed or rigid. It’s a 3-hour, 3-mile walk with up to five food tastings spaced out just right to keep your energy (and appetite) steady. Along the way, you’ll enjoy two complimentary alcoholic shots—yes, included in your ticket—and plenty of time to soak in the atmosphere.
Expect a thoughtful flow that allows you to enjoy, explore, and digest without ever feeling overwhelmed.
4. Led by someone who truly knows the city—and the stories behind it
Your guide for the day is Lauren, Incloodie’s founder and longtime food industry pro. She’s not just leading the tour—she’s sharing her personal passion for food, culture, and community. Lauren brings the heart to every stop, offering everything from historical context to personal anecdotes that connect you to the people behind the plates.
You’ll hear about JFK history, local legends, and even architectural fun facts as you walk between tastings.
5. Small groups, big connections
Each tour is limited to just six people, so you’ll never feel lost in a crowd. Whether you’re flying solo, bringing a partner, or showing visiting friends around town, there’s space to connect, chat, and share reactions along the way. You’re not just touring—you’re experiencing the city like a local, and leaving with a few new foodie friends.
Got allergies or other dietary concerns? Just let Lauren know when booking. Incloodie is all about making sure everyone feels welcome.
