I recently contacted Taste of Vancouver Food Tours for a group tour for some conference delegates and we had a great time! The food was great and the history we learned about Gastown was great. Our tour guide was fun and witty! We would definitely book again for future events.

We were in the mood to really enjoy this but found it to be somewhat disappointing. Enjoyed some of the trivia and facts but not crazy about the tole of the character - would probably have enjoyed a host who was him or herself and more engaged with the group. Gassy Jack lead the group and gave his spiel in... More

I'm a long time Vancouver resident but went on the tour when my Mom came into town and am so glad I did! There were many places that I had never heard of before but will definitely be going back to. The guide was funny and informative about the history and the food was delicious at every stop. My only... More

We set off on an afternoon which was very informative, entertaining and fun. Great food samples and surprisingly we were very full by the end. Loved the BBQ at Peckinpah and the Maple syrup place was very informative. iif you are looking for a different afternoon adventure , whether a local or out to town guest I would recommend this...

The two hour tour is a wonderful way to see and learn about Vancouver's Gastown area. The guide 'Gassy Jack' was knowledgeable and fun and the places visited showcased what the city has to offer. I would highly recommend it...great value for the cost.

I invited 5 other friends to join my husband and I on this tour of Gastown and we were rewarded with an excellent opportunity to learn a bit of history, make some new friends and enjoy the variety of foods offered. Great way to know the restaurants in the area - already have three new favourites to come back to.... More

We recently took this walking tour of the Gastown area in Vancouver, Canada.

Along the was we enjoyed everything from Lobster Mac & Cheese, Oatmeal Stout and onto... More

Found out about this tour through Groupon. The two hours went by quick. I enjoyed the food we were offered and gave me a taste of the different restaurants in Gastown. It was nice to be able to walk through the neighbourhood and learn about its history. I gave it 4/5 because I think the portion sizes could've been bigger.... More

I took this tour as a local after purchasing tickets on Groupon. I must say I learned many interesting facts about Gastown from "Gassy Jack" which I wasn't aware of and sampled many different foods. I have taken a food tour in Honolulu which put this tour to shame. The tour operators for the Gastown tour did not engage the... More

Gassy Jack took us on an incredible eating, walking tour of Gastown. The food was so good and the quantity was way more than expected. We had done the same tour in Seattle and were only given small servings of each item. The history we learned of the area was invaluable. We ended up back at one of the restaurants... More
