We really enjoyed our tour with local guide Arsham. Lots of really cool beers and fun chats in places off the tourist trail. Don't miss it! Tip - make sure your phone is working as the meeting spot indicated is busy and isn't totally accurate. We nearly missed the tour as Arsham couldn't contact me!
This was a brilliant, fun, informative tour. We really enjoyed the chats abd beers with our local guide Arsham from DaExperience. Highly recommend.
Our guide, Arsham, was very knowledge and personable. He made a good tour great. The tour felt like a great bang for the buck when it comes to the food, drink and information. Very highly recommend

I booked this tour as a Christmas gift for my Dad, and we had a great time. Arsham was a wonderful guide. He was warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Arsham provided stories, history, and interesting facts about all of the breweries we visited (and the city and locations in between). Even though we are locals to the Lower Mainland, we still learned a lot! We visited 4 breweries over about 2.5 hours, and tried 2 beers at each (with a surprise extra at our 2nd stop). We had bites at the first two locations. We were able to get a behind the scenes look at one of our stops, which was really cool. We picked a quiet weekend, and were the only group (of 2). This is an advantage offered over other brewery tours I looked into, which often require a minimum size to proceed without cancellation. The walking was not strenuous at all, and accessible. Expect to walk a little over a kilometer from the seabus terminal area. Our tour ended at the end of the breweries on Esplanade, and you will likely need to walk the same distance back (but this is also an opportunity to check out any of the distilleries, cideries, or breweries that you missed!). Bring an umbrella or jacket if raining, while the walks are quick, there isn't cover between stops. Clearly, a lot of care and research is put into this company's tour; I would be excited to try (and I would not hesitate to recommend) this, and any other tours offered by DaExperience! Thank you Arsham!
Wonderful experience with fantastic guide - Arsham. Not only did we get to sample a variety of carefully selected different brews but we learned so much about the interesting history of “North Van.” It’s obvious Arsham knows the area and its history as well as the numerous craft breweries and their prize winning offerings. Arsham is a natural as a tour guide, very personable and knowledgeable.
Arsham was our tour guide, he was fantastic and had so much knowledge about the history behind Vancouver! He took us to some really great spots I would have never thought to go to, we did not have a single bad drink they were all delicious! We even got to try some fun drinks, such as a Baja blast beer! I would recommend this tour and definitely want to do it again in the future!
Arsham was an excellent guide! Very knowledgeable on the history of Vancouver. We really enjoyed the beer flights and snacks. And the unique bars we went to. Our favorites were the Baja beer and Pinky Tuscadero! I would highly recommend him as your guide!
Had a fantastic time at the North Vancouver Walking Brewery Tour! Arsham was an amazing guide: he's very knowledgeable, and his charisma kept the tour engaging and fun. The selection of breweries all had their own ambiance, so each stop was a unique experience. There was a variety of hand-selected flavours on tap, and it was nice to be able to try so many different flavours. I really enjoyed the nostalgic creamsicle-like taste of the Orange Sour at Cerveceria Astellieros, the IPA at Shaketown, and the unique flavour of the Czech pilsner Syncopation at House of Funk. The first two stops were paired with food, of which my favourite was the carnitas taco - moist, flavourful, and delicious. If you're a beer lover, you have GOT to try this tour! I highly recommend; it was SO much fun!
Had a great time touring and chatting with our guide Arsham, learned a few history facts and had some good drinks I wouldn't normally try. Would love to try another tour led by him. Highly recommend!
