Fabulous experience

Bob was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Four hours seemed like a long time for a tour but it was divided up into different sections that were each unique and interesting and time went very fast. Bob is very knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about the history and symbolism in the beautiful Chinese Gardens. The walk through the area with stops at the various shops was fascinating and the samples were yummy.
We were not expecting that much food at the dim sum lunch- it was more than plentiful and delicious. So much food, maybe too much food but we very much enjoyed.
My 82 year old father was having knee issues and Bob was so accommodating; arranged for us to sit at the bakery to give him a rest and continuously looking out for him. We were very appreciative of his flexibility and consideration.
The 5 of us enjoyed this tour so much and we highly recommend it to others. Bob is lovely and a wealth of knowledge. Don’t miss this exceptional experience.

We were given the wrong start time, hanging around for an hour. The tour was very informative and the food samples good followed by a good lunch.
Bob was an excellent guide who knew his subject and carefully answered all questions. We very much enjoyed meeting him.

What a lovely time we had. Our guide is very knowledgeable and likable. First, we sat in a room in the Sun Yat-Sen garden for some cultural information, then we visited the garden. After, we walked in the street of Chinatown and visited a few shops and restaurants. We learnt quite a few things and tasted even more. Highly recommended.
Excellent food tour with Chef Bob

Chef Bob showed us interesting parts of Vancouver’s Chinatown with plenty of history. We stopped at food and tea shops along the way. He made history interesting and funny!

The Tour is worth every cent! Bob knows Chinatown inside out and his tips are very welcome. The hints on Chinese culture and way of life helped us to understand the chinese way of thinking. Highlight was our common meal in a dim sum restaurant! Thanks again Bob!

David was an excellent guide and host and even engaged our two teenagers. We enjoyed the tea shops and the Chinese markets.

Bob was fun and knowledgeable about Chinatown. We're glad we took the time to learn about the history of Chinatown and the importance of this community in Vancouver and BC. It was also a delicious tour with lots of opportunities to eat and drink from local restaurants and cafes!
We couldn’t give higher praise to this tour!

We live in Vancouver. And have gone to China town lots of times; never knowing what we are seeing or tasting. With the very knowledgeable direction of Bob. I learned about the culture and the stores, the vegetables and how you cook them. And then at The restaurant how those vegetables taste. And I learned about teas the they age like wine !! What an exiting and cultural experience in my own city!!
I totally recommend it. !! It is very worthwhile !

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
