Reviews of A Taste Of Kelowna Food Tours (Travel Agency)

Kolby Corbett

We had a great time exploring the Cultural District of Kelowna, a true hidden game. And our guide Andrew was professional, well informed, and kept the pace light and fun! Excellent food and drink options, and a great way to spend a afternoon in Kelowna! Well done Andrew, Id recommend your tour to anyone looking to get a real taste of Kelowna!

Our office Christmas Party could not have been more fun! What a great afternoon. Andrew brought us to many local restaurants and cafes while also provided us with history and facts. I would recommend this to anyone coming to town to visit or if you want to have a fun afternoon!

I was invited to participate in A Taste of Kelowna Food Tour by a friend. I am so glad I accepted the invite! Several restaurants participate daily and offer up the most delicious food. We had cold chai tea lattes, lemon squares, tacos, grapefruit margaritas, this amazing corn on a stick that is a staple in Mexico, ice cream sandwiches and finally Asian fusion salad buns. It was all so tasty! As we walked from place to place, we learned so much from Andrew about the history of Kelowna. We stopped into the Kasugai Japanese garden where they have colourful coy and gorgeous greenery. It was truly a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon and I recommend this amazing tour to tourists and residents alike.

Super fun and informative food tour of a really great city. At almost every stop, our table was reserved and we were welcomed. The owner or main chef would take time at our table to explain their passion and their work in a personal and fun way. Our tour guide was informative, respectful, timely, fun and took time to ensure that each individual in the group had a good time. He even made special arrangements for specific food allergy situations. Just a great tour. Top shelf!

Daryl French

This was a fantastic tour, our guide Andrew combined humor and great information which kept things flowing, with some tasty snacks and a few refreshments. Well worth the price and 2 hours flew by.

Andrew provided us a thorough and unique tour of downtown Kelowna in explaining Kelowna’s history and introducing us to new local businesses. The food and drinks were delicious and not your typical restaurant chain style meal. The value was great too. Not only were you getting a feel of Kelowna’s history, but you were receiving good portions of food and drinks. There was enough time during the tour to make purchases from each of these businesses for products to take home. Andrew addressed all questions making the group not feel rushed in any manner. It’s refreshing to be a part of a tour where the tour guide was extremely passionate of their city. I am originally from the Okanagan region and would highly recommend the tour to even locals.

Had a great time on this culinary tour through our city, learned a new thing or two! Fantastic food and drinks, cookie cut to the daily situation (we had hot weather) Andrew knows his stuff and is a great guide with many entertaining stories along the way. Highly recommended!

Carly Malchuk

10/10 would recommend! Such a great afternoon of amazing food and info! I learnt SO MUCH about Kelowna, even though I’m a local! You can tell Andrew genuinely loves what he does and loves this city he calls home. I’m so happy to have visited some of my favourite spots in town and also discovered some new! Thank you Taste of Kelowna Tours!

Matthew Abrey

Wow, what a fantastic tour! Our guide, Andrew, was absolutely wonderful and incredibly professional, all while also keeping us laughing throughout the entire trip. I was born and raised in the Okanagan, but I learned so many new things about the region through Andrew's great stories. The in-restaurant experience was just as great - The food and drinks were great and fresh at every stop along the way, and the portions were actually way bigger than I was expecting. I've been on food tours before where they only give you a little plastic sample cup, but luckily this wasn't anything like that! Super generous portion sizes. Overall, it was just a great way to spend our afternoon while also supporting small businesses, which was definitely much better than going to a big chain restaurant drive-thru and eating a sandwich in the car, haha! Thanks again to Andrew for such a great tour.

Learned more about Kelowna than I had living here for 10 years! Andrew is a very personable, top notch guide and every stop along the way was amazing. Great value for a few hours of fun!

Marion Barr

I enjoyed Andrew's tour tremendously and appreciated him sharing fascinating details about Kelowna. Andrew is a talented story teller and it's rare for a guide to be able to bring history alive in such a captivating way. The food and beverages were also delicious and I saw a funky, current side to Kelowna that I hadn't seen on previous trips. Reminiscent of the quality of walking food tours I've taken in New York City. Thanks for a wonderful afternoon!

We did this as part of a group and have never done a food tour before - it was Fantastic! Our guide was great and he explained more than we expected, great info and stories. The selection of food was diverse and everything was absolutely delicious. Great selection of beverages that catered for alcoholic and non alcoholic drinkers. Strongly recommend this tour, even if you are local.

The restaurants he took us to were interesting and the food was amazing. When we have company in the new year I will highly recommend this tour to them.

AMAZING tour! Some of my favourite memories on vacations are learning about the city and culture from walking tours - and this one exceeded my expectations! I’ve lived in Kelowna my entire life and still learned so many fascinating facts about our multicultural history, stories, and local businesses. This tour is also intertwined with delicious food and drink stops supplemented with facts from each locally owned restaurant. Andrew is a fun, knowledgeable guide! I highly recommend this tour for visitors to Kelowna or for any local! Incredible food, drinks, people, and local knowledge!

We did this tour after only a few hours of having arrived in Kelowna for the first time and it was the best way to be introduced to the city. Andrew brought us to some really great restaurants and the food did not disappoint. He also had a ton of recommendations for things to do around kelowna which was awesome. If you love food, learning the local scene, or need an introduction to the city this tour is absolutely for you. Going to need to find food tours everywhere I go now.

Andrew was a very informative guide. We went to 8 places to eat or drink. We learned lots about our own backyard and new stories from the businesses! Great value, will refer friends and take some in the future.

What a fantastic experience! Our tour guide, Andrew, was professional yet fun and full of interesting facts and stories about the area. We learned a lot of new things even though we’ve lived here for 9 years! It was a great opportunity to try out some new businesses that we hadn’t been to as well! The samples of food and beverages were delicious and very generous portions. Overall great value and a great time! This will definitely become a regular activity with our out of town guests!
