I booked this tour through Shore Excursions Group for my stop in Victoria BC while on my NCL cruise to Alaska. What a great tour! Our guide was so friendly and informative (I wish I could remember her name), the stops were all so different but all so good! The Asian Corn Dog was my favorite - something I would never have tried but now I will seek it out. The tacos and sweets were good too. We stopped to taste wine, but I am allergic so the owner graciously gave me a locally made soda to taste. It was delicious! I enjoyed the information provided by the food establishments as well as the extra details from our guide. I highly recommend this tour!SuitcaseRick

Lots of food and local knowledge makes this a great tour the first day or two after you arrive. Fish, pizza, ice wine, poutine and more will make for a great ‘lunch.’ The candied fish at the first stop - and the great looking fish both in the fish tanks and coming in from the boats - is great! Be prepared to walk, but it’s a beautiful stroll and all flat land. Your takes you to many parts of Victoria, and these are great places to come back and visit later in your trip. Plan on a late dinner, as you will be full of food after this tour! Course, the tour guide always makes it special - as did ours!! While you’re in Victoria, we also suggest taking a water taxi up into the beautiful Gorge area for recreation.beargirl1776

We highly reccomend this tour. The food was different from one place to another and all of it was very good and adventurous. We learnd the history of all the food we tasted and the tour included also the history of Victoria. Our guide, Bonnie, was very good and easy to be with.
