Discover North Vancouver’s Emerging Foodie Scene! A Scenic & Delicious culinary walking food tour adventure! Your journey begins with a picturesque, short SeaBus ferry ride across Burrard Inlet, offering panoramic waterfront views of the city skyline and surrounding mountains. You will arrive on the North Vancouver's buzzing waterfront, home to the iconic Lonsdale Quay Market and the lively Shipyards District—a hub for food lovers, culture explorers, and with stunning scenic views. On this 3-hour guided walking food tour, you’ll embark on a mouthwatering all-inclusive tasting journey, tasting handcrafted, delicious local dishes such as House-made Italian pasta, authentic handmade pirogies, West Coast candied salmon, Vancouver's best ice cream, local beer and wine and more. Take in the magnificent skyline and mountain views. Along the way, your local expert guide shares fascinating stories of the area’s history. A delicious side of Vancouver awaits you on the North Shore!
Begin at Waterfront Station, one of Vancouver's most iconic transit hubs and a historic landmark in its own right. Housed in a grand early-1900s heritage building on the edge of Gastown, it's the meeting point for the SkyTrain, SeaBus, West Coast Express, and buses — making it the perfect launch pad for exploring the city. With Gastown, Canada Place, and the waterfront all just steps away, it's both a practical starting point and a beautiful piece of Vancouver history.
From Waterfront Station, guests hop aboard the SeaBus for a scenic round-trip harbour crossing. This iconic passenger ferry glides across Burrard Inlet to Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouver and back, offering sweeping views of the downtown skyline, the working harbour, and the North Shore mountains along the way. It's a relaxing, quintessentially Vancouver experience — and one of the best value sightseeing rides in the city.
Just steps from the SeaBus terminal, Lonsdale Quay Market is a lively waterfront public market and the perfect place to taste some local foods. Wander the bright, skylit halls filled with fresh food stalls, local vendors, and artisan shops,
Right next to Lonsdale Quay, The Shipyards District is a vibrant waterfront gathering place built on North Vancouver's historic industrial roots. We stroll the scenic promenade and visit some local restaurants, and take in stunning views across the harbour to the downtown skyline.

Kelsy was a lovely guide, very friendly and answered all of our questions. The food choices were great and a nice variety, and it was a nice little walk around the shipyards/shoreline.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We really appreciate it :)
5 star service, knowledge and food. We did 2 food tours -gas town and ship yards and we were blown away by the tour guides and the company as a whole. Very professional and personable. And great personalities.
Thank you so much, John!
We had a fantastic experience on this food tour! It was our first food tour ever, and even though we live in the lower mainland and frequent North Vancouver, we learnt so much and got to discover so many amazing local businesses. Shout-out to our tour guide, Sean, who is very funny and knowledgeable. Thank you so much!
We are so thrilled to hear you had a great time with Sean on our North Van tour :D
Absolutely loved this food tour and especially our guide Kelsey for our last full day in Vancouver and to discover North Vancouver. She was a delight-kind, extremely knowledgeable, entertaining, and made sure we were 100% taken care of and had a blast. Had no idea so many cool eateries and shops existed in this area. Thanks for a fantastic afternoon!
Thank you so much for the amazing review! Kelsey will be so happy to hear it.
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable on the history of Vancouver as well as the food scene. I recommend her highly try to get her as your tour guide.
Thank you so much, Joe! We appreciate it :)
Very easy to find meeting spot to begin our journey. Kelsey our guide was a great leader, very friendly and excellent communicator. She was very knowledgeable about some historical aspects of the places we visited. I was afraid I would go hungry with the portion sizes but it was sufficient over the time of the tour. The food were all amazing, I especially loved the pasta. Great size for the tour as well which made it pleasant enough to have conversations amongst each other.
Thank you so much, Richard! We are happy to hear you had a good time :)
Kelsey was an amazing an knowledgable guide. She made it really fun. And I LOVED hearing a bit about the history of the shipyard.
Thank you so much, John! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the Shipyards tour.
It’s a fun way to get into the North Vancouver neighborhood. Fair blend of history information and food stops. Would like to have had a couple more food stops to try. But the tour leaves you time to do your own exploring after the events ends.
Thank you for the honest feedback, Steve! We appreciate it.
Great tour! Fun, interesting, informative; all the things I have always loved about food tours. AND if you have any dietary restrictions, Kelsey is the best!
Thank you for the wonderful review! Kelsey will be thrilled :)
Kelley was an excellent tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable of the area. She added many interesting tidbits. She was thoughtful, friendly and interesting to listen too. Everyone should ask for Kelsey. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you so much, Debbie! We appreciate the review :)
