We did the food tour today and it was an outstanding experience. We have already done many food tours in different cities, including across Europe, but this one truly stands out. The selection was perfectly put together and we got to truly wonderful cafés, restaurants and places. Andrew freely shared his deep knowledge about the city, the people, the region and the many hidden gems. We HIGHLY recommend to do this food tour as the FIRST THING when you arrive in Kelowna. You will get so much more out of your stay - even if you have been to Kelowna before. - We cannot imagine a better way to discover the city. Thank you very much, Andrew, for this fantastic experience!
Andrew was a top guide and told us a lot about Kelowna. The food was great and we got to see a lot behind the scenes. They were small, local restaurants, which was great that he supports them!
The day was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Andrew guided us so well, explaining everything along the way. Every place we visited was fantastic, and the flow of the tour was perfectly planned. The hours flew by, and overall, we had such a great time!
Excellent local food and drink. Would not have known about these places if it wasn’t for the tour. Lots of great historical information provided by Andrew. Easy walking, didn’t feel rushed at all, but managed to cover a big part of downtown. Highly recommend 🙂🙂
Very informative friendly guide.
Fantastic tour, Andrew was great! Great options for food and portions were generous and Andrew was fantastic in providing knowledge of Kelowna. Would definitely recommend!
Great tour! Come hungry! So much good food. Such a variety of different types of food. Andrew was wonderful and had so much knowledge of the area. Would highly recommend!
Thank you so very much for a wonderful tour on Saturday, all the food was delicious - we ended back at Sprout and el taquieros for more tacos the next day! You did an amazing job and kept it fun the whole time, I appreciated the personable touch and how we got to know you too. We all enjoyed ourselves immensely and learned while getting stuffed, it was so much fun. Thank you so much!!
We decided to do a walking food and drink tour in the Cultural District in downtown Kelowna. Andrew, our tour guide with "A Taste of Kelowna Food Tours", did a wonderful job of not only taking us to some of the greatest food places in town, but filling us in on the culture and history of the area. We would highly recommend it.
