Fun family tour

Jennifer_M, Aug 2025
We had a super fun time on this foodie walking tour. We brought our adventurous eaters- 6,8,11 yo. Foods were all samples of local cuisine that you may not get elsewhere. We had a perfect weather day.

Fun and yummy tour!

My husband and I loved this and the tour guide was friendly and informative. The tasting sizes were substantial, so make sure you are hungry! Went with our 13 year old son. It wasn’t very interesting for him, so this may be better-suited for adults. Definitely worth the money, though!!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Disappointment

Laurie_L, Jun 2025
I read great things about this tour so maybe I was expecting too much. However, it started at the first restaurant and the second one was next door, we were given some seafood and a dessert with a cup of tap water. Then we stood looking at plants for ten minutes before getting Hawaiian pizza with nothing to drink again. Apparently the next stop was over a mile away and by this time, I had decided it wouldn't be worth the walk. Disappointing

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Great Experience, better than thought

Ben was an excellent guide with great information about the food but history of Victoria as well. I have done several food tours by Viator world wide and this was the best especially in terms of the food, amount of food stops and portions. Normally it's small bite size, but we got whole slices of pizza and chocolates that weren't cut up into smaller pieces! Sounds weird I know, but some places cut up single serving sizes but that didn't happen on this tour. Definitely recommend for the food, tour of the city, and some historical information!

Best Canadian Foodie Tour

AJ was awesome. He gave us lots of history and information about Victoria. Plus lots of food, including samples of smoked salmon, Canadian pizza, Bannock, chocolate, poutin, and a sip of ice wine! Great tour! Highly recommend.
