A must! - Preethi was amazing. So knowledgeable and helpful! I would recommend this to anyone. If you’re thinking about it do it, Do It. And do it at the beginning of your trip.

Don’t wait- book this tour! - My family of 5 took the Downtown Asian Eats tour with Anjela and it was amazing!!! The route is thoughtfully planned with stops at iconic Vancouver eateries, enough time between destinations to work up an appetite again, and fun little stops for shopping. Anjela was a fantastic tour guide and we learned so much history and interesting trivia along the way. Appropriate for little kids on up. This was definitely a highlight of our trip!

Well worth the time and price tour. - My husband and I were excited to see this VC downtown tour. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and catered to our individual needs and concerns. The food choices were excellent, as were the variety of stores and markets that we visited. We would not have had such a wonderful experience if we tried to discover these places on our own. Definitely will be trying the other tours offered by this tour company. Definitely will go back to all the restaurants we visited. Shout out to Anjela guide. We'll try and book another tour her.

Don't do any other foodie tour!! - This was an exceptionally good foodie tour. It was extremely well organised and the guide (Pretty??) was superb. Her local knowledge and her knowledge of Asian food was just amazing. In addition she was pleasant and engaging. The food was to die for!! Exquisite and such generous portions. It was really good value for money. We would absolutely recommend this tour. We have done good tours in many countries and locations. This was by far the best we have ever experienced.

Memorable food tour, loved it! - If you’re considering a food tour, look no further. Angela was the highlight of our trip. She was so enthusiastic about showing us some of the great food places in Vancouver. The food was delicious. The pace was perfect. Come hungry because there is a lot of food. I highly recommend this tour.

Gastronomic Delight - We were excited for our second food tour upon our return to Vancouver, and we weren't disappointed. Our host and guide, Manuela, was most excellent. Her enthusiasm and wealth of knowledge re Asian food, culture and Vancouver's Asian food scene was a beyond impressive. It felt like we arrived as strangers and departed as friends! The tour itself was unlike any of the many big city food tours we've taken. Rather that squeezing in 7-9 short stops, our tour was designed to include only 5, creating a more leisurely and intimate experience. Tasting is not a fair description of our food experience, as beside our "tastings" of dumplings, Asian soft serve ice cream, we also shared both a full sum dim and Korean BBQ meal. We completed our tour with stop to enjoy a delicious desert fruit drink that was a perfect ending to a wonderful gastronomic excursion. WARNING: come with a big appetite and pace yourself ... you won't leave hungry!

Delicious way to get to know Vancouver - We had only one day in Vancouver, so the tour was a great way to jump in and learn, eat and have fun. Our tour guide, Preethi, was not only personable, organized and professional, but also knowledgeable about food and the city. We loved all the food we had and appreciated that it was curated for us to enjoy highlighting both bigger restaurants and more hidden gems.

An absolute requirement while visiting Vancouver - It was an excellent excellent experience. Aside from the wonderful food, Manuela and Bronson were convivial and warm tour guides. I have been on food tours all over the world. This by far is the best.
