5.00We had a wonderful tour with Bob! He was knowledgeable, interesting and passionate about Chinese food, history and culture. We learned so much and left with very full tummies after so much delicious food! Definitely a highlight of our first visit to Vancouver.

2.00Chinatown in Vancouver is in decay with a good bit of "street" people and lots of empty buildings, which puts a damper on the tour. The historical part was interesting, if you like that. The food part was kind of simplistic: waiting outside places to have a platter of food and a toothpick passed around to participants. A Dim Sum sit down lunch was ok but kind of rushed. Our tour guide was very nice and the information he shared was interesting.
Fascinating food and history tour.
