Vancouver Foodie Tour : Granville Island Market Food Tour
Beschrijving
Granville Island Market, aan de oevers van False Creek, overdekt door een stedelijke brug, is een favoriet onder de chef-koks en fijnproevers van de stad. Het is een groot deel van de ziel van de stad. Terwijl de kleurrijke markt om je heen zoemt, stap je achter de schermen om een kant te ervaren die velen nooit zien - zelfs de lokale bevolking. Geniet van hartige en zoete hapjes van gerenommeerde culinaire ambachtslieden en sluit je aan bij hun passie voor eten en erfgoed.

Hobbs kon aan de westkust geen lekker smakende augurken vinden, dus startte hij een augurkenbedrijf om altijd over zijn eigen voorraad goed smakende augurken te beschikken.

Bezoek ons in de Pickle Bar, onze oorspronkelijke locatie op de Granville Island Market.

Fantastic tasting tour of the many delights of Granville Market. Mu was a fabulous guide. He paced the tour well, knew so much about the food and vendors and ensured everyone was well looked after. The tastes themselves were a good balance of savory and sweet and covered a unique range from pickles to pad see ew! Finishing with the local Lee’s donut was a special treat.
Recently completed the Granville Island Market Public Tour with Nolan. He was a great tour guide-engaging, interesting, and easy to get along with. Tour included tasting from a countless number of vendors as well as some Granville Island/Vancouver history. Good for all ages. A little pricey but ultimately had a great time. Thanks Nolan!
Our guide, Mu, was outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our food tasting tour with him and would do it again in a heartbeat just to enjoy his company and fun style in sharing the culinary and island history. The food and beverage samples were well sequenced to deliver a fantastic overview of the many delights of Granville Market. Lemonade, artisanal bread, cream Earl Grey tea, salmon, cured meats, Thai noodles, macaroons, the famous honey glazed donut, and so much more. We were stuffed and happy by the end. Great tour, highly recommend this to anyone who likes food!
This was one of the best food tours I have taken. Good variety of tastings, generous portions and great information about the owners and their ingredients. Mu, our guide was considerate, knowledgeable and had a passion for what he was doing and talking about. Besides the food history and market history, he also gave us information on the harbor’s industrial history and that of the indigenous people of that area. Mu is a great asset to this tour company and I sincerely appreciate his friendly and joyous personality. I highly recommend him and this tour.

So pleased we picked this tour. Easy to book and great communication. Our tour guide, Mu, was clearly so passionate about the foodie delights in Granville Island Public Market and we enjoyed a perfectly curated tour rather like a taster banquet. Cooling iced lemonade tea, Breads, Cheeses, pickles, charcuterie meats, salmon, yummy sweet treats, coffee and finally donuts. We learned all about the entrepreneurs who set up their businesses here and who are just as enthusiastic as Mu is about food. Our group included a family with young children who had a great time enjoying the foodie delights too. Although the market isn't ginormous there is quite a lot of walking involved as you weave in and out of the market. We didnt need a little else to eat that day and had a delightful trip back to Vancouver vis False Creek ferries and an Uber.

Even though Granville Island Public Market can feel busy and chaotic, everything was run so efficiently. Our guide kept the group organized, had a great demeanor throughout, and made navigating the market feel effortless.

Michael was awesome and really knew his stuff! The pace and choices were perfect. Felt though out and we appreciated that the Canadian government invests in doing these types of endeavours. Keep it up, guys! Awesome job. This exposed us to local gems we wouldn't have found otherwise.
