Excellent food tour - Wow! What a fantastic experience. We had so much fun with our excellent guide, Ben, who is very friendly and knowledgeable. Due to the small group size, I could ask many questions about Victoria and travel. The food was tasty, and the portions were generous. We tried candied salmon for the first time and loved it! The walking pace was also comfortable. Thanks so much for an excellent time. This was one of the best food tours I have ever been on. Thanks again!

A must for first time Victoria - A tour that is absolutely recommended. We were spoiled by AJ directly at the meeting point with delicious salmon variations and heard interesting things about the store. Then there was bannock with berries, delicious. On the further way, treats were repeated along with interesting stories about the food, but also the buildings on the way to the places of enjoyment. We were altogether a group of 5 adults and a child and it just matched everything, weather, food, drink and stories. If you like food and want to learn about Victoria, you just have to do the tour.

Fun food tour! - Fun tour! Our guide, A.J. was friendly, personable and knowledgeable. A good variety of taste treats were presented with the historical background of the food being Canadian. Easy walk with plenty of stops. Definitely a worthwhile tour.

Don’t miss this! - Great tour with AJ as our local guide. We enjoyed learning about the history of the area and the food was amazing! We went back to several places, our favorite being Finest at Sea for the best fish you’ll ever have!

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.

Disappointment - 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

Uber Eats Canada Charging my credit card - Uber eats is the worst to deal with. I will strongly advise anyone using their services. They have been charging my credit card for many months but don't care about. I have reported unrecognized charge for many months but they don't care. I will reporting them to BBB.
