Jo is very accommodating to food allergies, vegan, etc. with advance notice. Great variety of foods with local history sprinkled in for entertainment.
Thank you so much! It was my pleasure showing you around :-)
This is a must do while in Banff. Joanna took us on a food tour with so much variety. She had lots of knowledge of the area and it was a blast. I will definitely be recommending this tour to friends who will be visiting Banff next month. It made my trip!
Awww ☺️ thank you so much!!! What a wonderful review to read. It was fabulous having you on the tour. Thank you again.
It was a great tour of Canadian food. Places we probably wouldn't have tried otherwise. Jo was very proud of the Canadian food scene & we learned a lot.
Thank you very much! I'm so glad you had a wonderful time :-)
Really enjoy these foodie experiences and Joanna was a great host!
Thank you! You were a pretty good guest!
This tour was great. We got to try foods we never had before - everything tasted great. Joanna was a great guide - enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She got us in and out of places with no problem. Definitely saw more than just if I had been on my own. Would recommend this tour

What a wonderful review to read - and I agree... do the tour early in your stay! Thank you again and hope you enjoy the rest of your trip :-)
Couldn’t have been better. Joanna gave an insight into the food, its history and the history of Banff and the area. She mixed restaurants with shops selling food, including places we just would not have gone into. She was knowledgeable, good company and fun.
You were great fun as well! Thank you for such a fabulous review and I'd love to see you back this way again soon!
Joanna was our food tour guide for the evening. This was our first night in Banff and spending the evening strolling down Banff Avenue tasting some of the wonderful food was a great way to start our vacation. My only reason for not giving 5 stars was I felt the drinks we started with could have been split up as they were very different drinks. But Joanne did a great job of accommodating the shellfish allergy in our group and the non-drinker. I also thought we could have had a bit more dinner food than dessert (sweet treats) that being said all was truly wonderful. Joanne was easy to talk to and kept us interested in what she had to say about Banff and the food we tasted.
Thank you very much! Yes, I apologize about the different drinks. I didn't want the guest with the clam allergy to feel left out, and unfortunately that was the one stop we couldn't revisit later in the tour. I also apologize about the treats. In my tours, I aim for a balance of three savoury bites, three sweet treats, and three sips. Perhaps I should drop a sweet and add another savoury. But on the bright side, you all got the entire tour & nibbles tastings completely FREE! Thank you for being such a fun group... I really enjoyed spending the evening with you.
Great variety of food and drink arranged buoy our very knowledgeable guide Jo. Recommend to anyone who enjoys food
Thank you so much!!! It was such a fun day!!
