Andy was fun and knowledgeable. The tour felt like seeing the city with a close friend who knows all the best places to stop. Fun to learn the history and stop at places that have a deep connection to the community.

Andy's tour is the perfect mix of Victoria history and local food scene. All of the vendors we visited were delicious and clearly also valued members of the local community. We took the 11am tour and all the small bites added up to a good lunch.

Tour requires quite a bit of walking so good mobility and good walking shoes required. Dress for the weather. Great experience and would recommend the tour.
