Home to award-winning restaurants and chefs, there’s always something new and delicious to try in Vancouver. Check off multiple boxes on your foodie bucket list this summer with these new food and beer tours:
Vancouver Brewery Tours
A brand-new craft beer experience is brewing in the heart of Vancouver’s oldest neighborhood. Brought to you by the beer lovers at Vancouver Brewery Tours, Gastown Pub Walks introduces guests to some of Vancouver’s best craft beer pubs located in the historic Gastown neighborhood. Led by passionate and knowledgeable beer guides you’ll visit three craft beer focused pubs to learn about Vancouver’s thriving craft beer scene—Vancouver has 46 microbreweries within city limits!—and the history of Gastown. The tour includes the iconic Alibi Room, considered by many to be Vancouver’s best craft beer pub and second home to the city’s biggest craft beer fans. Offered every Tuesday and Thursday from 3pm-6pm, and tickets are $69.99 + tax. For guests who want the experience (but not the beer) wine is an option at every stop.
Vancouver Foodie Tours
One of Forbes’ Top 9 Food Tours in the world, Vancouver Foodie Tours hosts seriously delicious walking food tours where you’ll explore downtown Vancouver’s history, architecture and waterfront vistas. The newest offering, the Best of Downtown Tour, encompasses the city’s fresh, seasonal, and multicultural flavours with award-winning West Coast seafood, authentic Chinese dim sum, Italian gelato, and more. The three-hour walking tour includes an exclusive trip of signature gelato recipes from Bella Gelateria (plus you get to skip the line!), five best-in-class downtown restaurants, and craft beer, local wine, and cocktail parings. The tour begins in the heart of downtown Vancouver, a 5-minute walk from most downtown hotels.
The Gastronomic Gastown Tour is Vancouver Foodie Tours’ most popular tour, taking foodies on an indulgent adventure through the maze of restaurants and cocktail bars in Vancouver’s oldest neighbourhood.
