Great overview of the city, good recommendations and the group was definitely catered to. Super friendly ginger fella, and everyone we saw knew him well. If you have a lot of questions or are a slow drinker expect the time to be more like 4 hrs then 3. Wasn't a problem just expect it could run longer. Thanks much
Best Ever

What a great way to see some of Kelowna. Stops and food were exceptional. Andrew's knowledge of the city was great and his style is very friendly and inviting. All of the establishments were engaging and pleased to have us visiting their places of business. Take this tour.
