Andrew is a fantastic tour guide, he really highlighted the local food variety and he gave a good sense of the community the resides in Kelowna. Being born and raised in Toronto I have a diverse palette and wasn't expecting much.. my mistake! Kelowna is home to some great food from some humble people that have gathered from all around the world. Andrew knew many locals, who were all friendly, warm and welcoming. I had such a great time during my tour that I came back to Kelowna again and never left! I would recommend this tour to anyone curious about local food spots, the history of the city and some well known landmarks. Andrew covers it all and his tour is very informative. 10/10 would tour again!

I actually don’t usually write reviews. And we did this to her last summer, and I didn’t write a review then but as we’re getting ready for spring break and looking to book a food tour in a new destination, I can’t stop thinking about this tour. Whenever I travel with my kids, we do food tours because I like to expose them to new things. I don’t expect them to eat everything on the tour and I don’t expect them to like everything, they are kids. But they have discovered cool new things like kombucha, escargot, and pølser. It’s not unusual for them to leave things uneaten on a food tour and if they leave hungry, that’s fine, there are McDonald’s everywhere but at least they tried. I don’t feel like it was a waste of money because they got a cool new experience. Andrew, on the other hand felt differently. He went out of his way to make sure that my kids got something to eat at every single stop, if they didn’t like avocado toast there was bread and jam. If the tacos were too spicy, they got special tacos. At first, I was a little uncomfortable like my kids were scamming him or something… but as the tour went on, and he kept checking in with them, I realized that he just genuinely cared that they were having the same great experience that all of the adults on his tours do. We are done food tours, all of the world, in famous culinary cities, but this remains one of our favorite, and a gold standard of service
