Victoria Guided Food and History Tour

Amazing food tour with our guide, Andy! The food choices were a fantastic and varied sampling of some of Victoria, BC’s finest. The history and hidden alleyways throughout the tour impressed even the BC locals. However, the most impressive part of the tour was Andy himself. His positive energy, enthusiasm and engaging personality kept things moving in a very fun and unforgettable way. A must do tour for anyone visiting Victoria - even if you’re a local!

Excellent introduction to Victoria and many of the cultural foods now found in the side streets and alleyways. Wonderful tastes and great historical information all done by a very friendly guide with a great sense of humor. Highly recommended.

One of the best tours I've ever taken. Andy gives you a great tour of parts of downtown Victoria with interesting history and facts while you get to try some amazing food. I have allergies and both he and the vendors we went to were so accommodating. Worth every calorie and every dollar!

We have done many food tours around the world and this was one of the best we’ve booked. Andy’s enthusiasm for Victoria, small business owners and the local cuisine was apparent through this carefully curated tour. The tastings were varied and delicious. The history and personal stories he shared were entertaining and informative. Just the right amount of walking and stops. We highly recommend this tour.

This a two hour walking tour with an easy, relaxed pace, lots of delicious food, and plenty of interesting stories about the history of Victoria. The time absolutely flew; it was so much fun! Andy clearly puts so much hard work and care into designing the tour and building relationships with those working in Victoria’s food industry. Andy also did a great job making sure the vegetarian in our group always had something delicious to eat along with the rest of us. It was so special to try so much of the amazing food the city has to offer and to meet the people providing it! I would recommend this tour to anyone who likes to eat!

Our guide was wonderful & very informative. The food we sampled was delicious! We had a variety of items to try & they were exceptional.

Our food and history tour in Victoria, BC was excellent! Our guide Andy was wonderful—knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. We loved learning about Victoria’s history while stopping at some fantastic local food spots. The food was delicious, the stories were fascinating, and the tour gave us a great way to see and experience the city. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Victoria. You won’t be disappointed!

Excellent tour, company owner is the tour guide, he’s got it down!!! Perfect amount of food, great variety. Very informative tour. As a personal note, if you’re thinking to book this and have a bunch of dietary restrictions… then don’t. Doing something else.

We take food tours all around the world and this was one of the best. No surprise, as we learned Andy, the owner operator, and sole employee, has taken food tours in 52 countries! He is a student of this craft for sure, and also a lifelong local and student of his own land. Andy has a beautiful relationship with the town and vendors to such an extent that when our harbour boat captain asked us what else we had done in Victoria his eyes lit up like a million stars when we said we took the food tour with Andy. The harbour boats don’t serve food, Andy is just known and loved! His knowledge of the history and food culture is so deep. The stops were fabulous and we ate a TON of food.

We are nerds so we love the history and stories mixed in with exposure to new foods. Great variety of cuisine... We DEFINITELY have some favorites and plan to return to those places during our stay. Thank you, Andy, for walking us around and even helping us out with future dining plans!
