“A wonderful way to try different cuisines in the Gastown area and learn about this area’s history. The foods included Japanese chicken karaage, Norwegian waffles, French potatoe dish, Italian pasta and more. We also got some alcoholic drinks as a part of the meals, either a local brewed beer or a locally sourced wine. Of course there are nonalcoholic choices too. In addition we ended up going to one of the restaurants the following day for dinner. We really enjoyed our tour guide, Connor. Great choice for 3 hours in Vancouver.”

Taste five cuisines, sip a cocktail, and hear Gastown stories on this three-hour Vancouver walking food tour.

“We loved the variety of restaurants that we visited, several of which we would most likely not have chosen on our own, but we're happy that we experienced. All of the food that we sampled (plenty of it!) was quite tasty, and we were especially pleasantly surprised with the butter chicken poutine and fried cauliflower at the vegan restaurant we visited. Our guide Landon was super friendly, professional, knowledgeable and very accommodating. Highly recommend, especially at the start of your visit to Vancouver, to get a great overview of the Gastown area and all of the amazing dining options.”
