Fun afternoon!
Resurrection, East van and brew hall were very fun and made even better by our guide, Darren! Had a group of 19 and everyone enjoyed themselves. Just enough time at each. Had appetizers at BrewHall and the Mac and Cheese bites are so good! Fun 3 1/2 hours!

Belated Father’s Day
Hi This tour was a gift from my lovely daughters for Father’s Day. It was an awesome experience with the knowledge and compassion of our guide Tim ( the kilted one) what a pleasure. I know my daughters really enjoyed our outing and I will forever remember the experience. Sincerely JP

Great Mash Up Tour
I booked a private tour called the Mash Up tour which consisted of a brewery, distillery and winery all in downtown Vancouver. It was amazing! We had Darren as our guide and he was great! I highly recommend going with Canadian Craft Tours for any of their tours. Will definitely book them again.

Fantastic Brewery Tour Across Vancouver!
Had such a great time with our bachelor party crew experiencing 3 great breweries across Vancouver with our amazing guide Kevin! Kevin was very knowledgable on the brewing process and very familiar with the 3 breweries he took us to. All of the breweries were great, each with their own unique flare. Would highly recommend!
