A Must-Do Experience with Andy! We had an absolutely fantastic time on Andy's Taste of Victoria Food Tour! This is truly a must-do experience for anyone visiting Victoria. Andy was an excellent guide who made the tour both informative and enjoyable. The food selections were outstanding, and we loved getting to experience the local culinary scene in such an authentic way. Andy's knowledge and passion for Victoria really shone through, making the entire experience memorable. We will definitely be doing this tour again on our next visit to Victoria. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and delicious way to explore the city! 5 stars - don't miss this one!

Andy was a great host. We discovered places we would never have known about on our own. Very informative and clearly loves what he does. Definitely recommend this tour.

Excellent tour! Lots of local foods, with good portion sizes, and meeting of local residents. Tour was imbedded with the history of the area. The best guide -bar none!

Multicultural tastings. We really enjoyed all the history and stories that Andy wove into the tour. It was paced perfectly and every bite made me wanting to taste more… but it was so filling too! Loved the local vendor/purveyor twist. Great food scene in Victoria!

10/10 experience!! We loved this tour so much and hope to take another with Andy when we come back in the summer. Great history, entertaining, AMAZING local food that we likely wouldn’t have known to try without his recommendations. Do not skip this tour, it’s absolutely worth it

Learned a lot about Victoria that I hadn’t read online. Fun to meet and hear the stories of the proprietors as we tasted their delicious food. A very good variety. Money and time well spent.

Andy is enthusiastic, has great smile, gives a thorough description of food and shop owners whom we can tell he thinks highly of and the feeling is mutual. The food is delicious and varied. This is our second food tour with Andy and we’d do it again!
