A wonderful afternoon sampling delicious local delights. - What a wonderful afternoon. Andy was enthusiastic and supremely knowledgeable about Victoria’s history and food scene. We sampled some delicious food and throughly enjoyed hearing about the businesses behind each. We went with our 23 year old son and 20 year old daughter - both really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend!

Excellent In Every Way - Andy was an excellent tour guide and selected excellent restaurants for the group to try. Initially, I was somewhat skeptical of the price ($75 each) but after taking the tour I was completely (100%) satisfied. We all agreed that it was one of the highlights of our trip to Victoria. I "highly" recommend this tour to anyone who loves history and eating delicious food.
