• We have done food tours...

  We have done food tours all over the world and this one was at best underwhelming. I would put the blame squarely on the local organizers or owners. Our guide Stu, admitted that he had never done one before and had simply been told to take the group to five eateries. Not one of the places knew we were coming in advance and there was very little knowledge about the place or the food. We actually did most of the organizing. To his defense, I’m not sure whoever did the booking gave him any background. When prompted he had lots of knowledge about the history of Halifax but hadn’t been told to share any additional information but rather just take us to the food spots. It was also “sold” as an understanding about food and tips and recommendations about eating places. None of those were available. We went to five spots, three of which were within 40 meters of each other, so not much strolling. Again, I can’t blame the guide as he was set up for failure by the local organizers who obviously picked the places and who seemed happy to just take the money and not give any information or preparation to the guide. We knew we were off to a tough start when we arrived at the first restaurant and the owner was surprised we didn’t have a reservation and allowed us how lucky we were and then our guide announced that he wasn’t really a good food person. On the plus side the food was all delicious and plentiful. Definitely if this tour was any indication of Viator tours in Halifax, I would not recommend this company!

• The guide was unprepared. He said he doesn’t do food. There were no reservations

  Food is good. The guide makes all the difference in the experience and this guide doesn’t represent the company in a positive way.

  The food was delicious and plentiful. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Don’t plan on eating dinner afterwards.

  We had a terrific food tour in Halifax with Evan. The food was great (especially the seafood chowder and the oysters) and Evan was very knowledgeable, not only about the food, but also about Halifax and its history. He explained in great detail the differences between the various types of oysters we were offered. By the time our tour ended, we were not only happily stuffed with great food, but also felt like we had taken a short course on the history of Halifax. And we appreciated his suggestion that we check out the Maritime Museum if we had time - we spent our last morning in Halifax there and didn’t regret it. We highly recommend this tour!
