Fun Vancouver knowledge with great food. - We had a great time. Brian let us see sights of Vancouver while sampling cookies burgers and ice cream. I was a great time. He is a great host for Vancouver. I hope to keep in touch for a return visit soon. We love the city.

A Vancouverite Experience - As someone who usually saves food tours for traveling abroad, I wasn’t sure what to expect doing one in my own city—but I’m so glad I did. Our guide, Brian, was fantastic—super friendly, great energy, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun from start to finish. The food stops were all on point, with a great mix of flavors and hidden gems I didn’t even know existed. I’ve already made a list to revisit and will definitely be spreading the word to friends. Highly recommend this for both locals and visitors!

Like having a friend in the city - With this tour we saw parts of the city we wouldn’t have found on our own. The food was fun and we enjoyed exploring with a guide who knows the city. The small group size made the trip feel like we were visiting with a friend in the city

Vancouver Food Tour - We enjoyed a wonderful food tour exploration of Vancouver with Brian in early December. He was a fun and entertaining guide! His expertise and experience led us to great food and drink choices. We toured places on our visit to Vancouver that we would not have seen without his guidance. We highly recommend his services as a food and drink maven.

Great Food, Excellent Guide, Fantastic Tour – Highly Recommended - My wife and I visited Vancouver to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary, and we’re so glad we booked this tour! From the moment we reserved our spot, communication was seamless. Brian was incredibly helpful, even recommending some fantastic restaurants for us to try before our tour. On the day of the tour, it was just the two of us, which made it feel like a more personalized experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the snacks and drinks were a perfect touch. The views were stunning, and the entire experience felt incredibly well-organized from start to finish. It's no surprise that this tour has such glowing reviews — we can’t recommend it enough!

The hits kept coming - Absolutely delightful time! Our guide was so knowledgeable of the area and showed us some real gems. There's no way we would have found the places we visite, but now we have places to go back to! A great way to spend the afternoon!

Book this one! - Book this tour! If you want to experience Vancouver like a local, this is the tour to book. Brian was AMAZING. Communication before the tour was spot on and very helpful. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun! The food stops were all delicious, and the information he shared about the area was great. The tour starts with the most wonderful views and the tastiest cookie! We did not get to see the garden, but Brian made up for that with an extra special treat at Annabell's! The other stops were also fantastic. The smash burger was so good, and don't sleep on the fries! The pop up bar had a fun vibe & the ice cream shop was excellent! Our group of 4 enjoyed the casual nature of the tour and loved the conversations we shared with Brian during our tour. He gave us great tips on other things to do/see during our visit and made sure we knew how to get back to the train after our tour concluded. 10/10 would book this tour again.

Great Food, Amazing Food, Tremendous Value - I took the tour as a culinary introduction to Vancouver on my first day arriving to the city. Brian is so knowledgeable and a caring person. The tour was only him and I which made it seem private which I enjoyed and he tailored to my likes. Even though I don’t like heights I enjoyed the view from the high rise building and learning about the history of the city. I also enjoyed going to the Chinese garden, a zen place in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city. Now onto the food… each stop was amazing. First stop, coffee and a specialty cookie. Which I still think about. Next stop, a smash burger and fries that are to die for. Finally, ice cream that I will gladly travel to. Overall, the tour is great and it’s a must do whenever in Vancouver. Thank you for a great time Brian!!!

Fantastic Tour! Highly Recommend! - Brian was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable about Vancouver and the favorites of the locals. He took us to see a beautiful view of the city and we enjoyed a delicious specialty cookie, a smash burger that was to die for, and delicious ice cream (we don’t drink, so we didn’t partake of any alcohol that would have otherwise been part of the experience). Brian tailored our tour for us, even noticing that I kept adoring all the dogs we passed by and deciding to take us to a nearby dog park to enjoy watching the pups play. It was just such a great experience that I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.
