Are you planning a first-time visit to Kansas City? Or maybe you’re a frequent visitor, or even a resident, who would just like to get a better handle on, and a behind-the-scenes look at, the local Q scene. If so, you might want to consider taking a tour with KC Barbecue Tours. They offer two different tours. The midday Original Kansas City Barbecue Tour visits four Q joints. The four may vary but one recent visitor said they went to LC’s, Woodyard, Gates, and Arthur Bryant’s, all, in our opinion, worth a visit.
The four-hour tour will run you $65 and includes all food, bus transportation, and gratuities at the restaurants. There’s also an evening Cue & Brew tour for $59. On this tour, you visit three Q houses and a local brewery, and each gust is permitted to bring a small cooler filled with whatever they like (presumably, most folks bring beer – no kids on this tour). Check out all the details at their website. Each tour is limited to 16 people, and they tend to sell out in advance.
