We had a great experience going on this food walking tour through St. Lawrence Market and a quick stop in the Distillery District. Our guide, Julia was very knowledgable and informative. Not only was the food tasty, we got a history lesson of Old Town Toronto too. We'd definitely recommend this fun outing for all foodie lovers!

This food tour was wonderful! There were several stops, and every single meal was fantastic! Carol served as our host, and I was there with nine of my coworkers. She was very nice and extremely knowledgeable about the area and its history! She was also able to give us suggestions for the rest of our journey. We wanted to hang out with her after because we liked her so much, but she had another tour. I recommend this tour, especially Carol. Whenever you're in Toronto, ask for her!

One of the best parts of the trip to Toronto was this. Our tour guide, Carol, is very knowledgeable. She was able to point out some of the city's historic structures and areas while also being extremely knowledgeable about the delicious foods we tried. If Carol hadn't introduced us to the city's market, I would never have known about it. Whatever you do, be sure to include Carol and the food tour in your trip to Toronto.

Spent some wonderful time with Yulia, who was friendly, interesting, and very knowledgeable about the history and cuisine of the area. All of the options for meals were wonderful (we added the drinks package and were not disappointed). For the remainder of our trip to Toronto, Yulia also provided us with a ton of advice and suggestions, which was incredibly useful. I highly suggest this tour – just come hungry!

My overall impression of this tour was excellent. From Carol, our tour guide, who was informative and enthusiastic, to the caliber of the beer we were able to drink. At each brewery we visited, we had a terrific time, and by the time we were done drinking, we were more than happy. Our time in Toronto was a terrific way to begin our vacation.

05 Dec 2022

I had previously taken a food tour, which was an excellent experience, so I made the decision to do another one in Toronto. It ended up being my favorite experience from the vacation! I learned so much more from Carol than I would have on my own about the area of Toronto that we visited. Since I was traveling alone, Carol and the other tour guests made for a great company. The cuisine was also fantastic. In the future, I'd like to take a tour with her and this company.

Amazing tour. Both really educational and delicious. Carol was excellent, really informed, and enthusiastic on the tour. We saw a lot of the general market area as the tour went along at a reasonable pace. She did a great job of introducing us to Toronto and Canadian delicacies. We were satisfied with the high caliber of the cuisine and, darn it, we were unable to consume all of the "secret" stuff. But we made certain to complete our Caesars! The best way to experience Toronto is to take this tour, and if you're lucky, Carol will be your guide.

What a wonderful way to spend an early day learning about various local culinary delights while also learning fascinating things about Toronto. Lucky for us, Yulia was our tour guide and she enthusiastically shared her love of the city with us. We sampled a variety of awesome foods (the ham sandwich was to die for; I'm happy it was included in the trip because I never would have eaten it otherwise). Yulia's experience was not only about the cuisine. The second part was full of fascinating historical information about Toronto and fantastic suggestions for places to see on our own before we go. I strongly advise attending this tour and, if possible, asking for Yulia. Happy eating!

While spending a long weekend away from Chicago in September, my friend and I participated in Secret Food Tour of Toronto with Carol. It turned into a private culinary tour because we were the only ones scheduled for that day. Carol was incredibly courteous, understanding, and knowledgeable. Despite the fact that we were the only visitors on the tour, there was never a sense of urgency, and we ended up taking the same amount of time as was predicted for a larger group on the website. We were also given the same amount of food at several spots as a typical group of 6 to 10 people! Along with connecting the food we were eating to the restaurant and later the city's history. In addition, Carol highlighted historical sites that were crucial to Toronto's growth into the country's largest city. The food was intriguing and varied, representing many areas of Toronto and historical periods. For anyone searching for a full serving of regional cuisine plus a brief history lesson, I would most definitely recommend the tour.

Carol, our tour guide, was excellent! The tour followed its schedule and began on time. Carol was well-versed in the city's history and architectural styles. She guided us through the Market and told us many interesting facts that I never would have learned on my own. The food was delicious and authentic in both the shops and restaurants. The seafood, pizza, and beverage options at the restaurant were amazing. Her depth of knowledge and her beauty made this tour the greatest money I had spent while traveling. Definitely will do it again when I return!
