We thoroughly enjoyed our Bites and Sites tour of Victoria, B.C. Our guide, Gary was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and he was so interesting and our tour was so fun-filled that it left us wanting more! So much so that my husband and I are already making plans to return to your beautiful city! We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the history of Victoria and the delectable bites that we tasted during our tour! Thank you, Gary!

Interesting tour that last about 3 hours. Food offered in Chinatown was a fish pâte and crackers with an alcoholic beverage (called a Shaft) coffee and liqueur. Second food option poutine and a beer (not regional). And finally a chocolate from Roger's chocolate. Overall the tour information was interesting. Food so so. Guide seemed knowledgeable.

Our guide (Gary H.) was super informative and was able to answer every question. He was very pleasant and kept the tour on pace. Be aware this is NOT a food tour, but just some snacks along the way. We learned a lot about Victoria in a short amount of time. Would definitely recommend.

Fish was an excellent guide to old Victoria…he was quite personable and told us all the history of both Old Town and Chinatown. We were provided delicious snacks and also treated to a ferry ride. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would ….don’t miss this tour!!!!! Deb and Chuck
