    The food was outstanding. Everything was of high quality and you didn’t leave feeling hungry. The tour guide Yasmine was lovely and very personable. Lots about the history of the area too.

    We did the Byward Market Evening Tour and it was amazing! Richard was the best guide, every stop we thought was the best until we reached the next one. The food, the drinks, the history, everything you could ask for. We were so full though, when they say bring your appetite, they mean it! Also, my first croffle was incredible, First Bite was a nice surprise at the end. We still managed to get the light treat in amongst all the other goodness stuffed in our bellies. If you’re thinking about doing a food tour, this is the one to do!

    Bike and Bites tour in partnership with Escape Bike Tours was an excellent way to experience the people, food, and culture of Ottawa…all while getting to spin your wheels. Food was diverse and delicious. Bike guide Richard was outstanding very knowledgeable, fun to be around and easy to ride with. Fabia was worldly and well versed in the Ottawa food scene. Together they teamed to teach, and he me enjoy a beautiful day. Great company and food! While it was pricey for just two folks it was a valuable experience for my wife and I.

    Flavia was a wonderful and knowledgable tour guide who took us through byward market in an expert way, giving us a bit of history and art between visits to a few of Byward market's wonderful eateries. We had an AMAZING start with Pure Kitchen's radical cauliflower wings. I have never loved cauliflower so much! Next we had a beef taco at Corazon de Maiz, which was delicious, and we really enjoyed stopping at Lil Z's pizza and trying the Lil Z. Can't wait to try more of the unique pizza's there. After the savory options, we enjoyed tea at the byward market tea store. I am not a big cold tea drinker, but it was so aromatic, we both really enjoyed it. At the cupcake lounge the dolce de leche cupcake was moist and not too sweet, and we also enjoyed the mandatory beavertail stop. Altogether it was a really enjoyable experience and a fun way to get to know byward market.

    We signed up for the Chocolate Lover’s Tour as an activity for our anniversary - because we both love chocolate! Not knowing entirely what to expect, we were delighted to find ourselves blissfully enjoying chocolate for two hours from some of the best bakeries and cafés in the Byward Market. Stefanie is such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide who truly got us excited about chocolate, from its history to how it’s made and transformed. We tasted churros, macarons, pastries and gelato - and it felt like we travelled around the world as we learned about the history of all these creations. I cannot recommend this tour and C’est Bon enough - you will enjoy yourself and learn a lot in any class or tour you sign up for. And, you will get to appreciate all of the hidden food gems Ottawa has to offer!
