A Yummy Experience - Very enjoyable tour of the food market. Got to stop at a bunch of stalls to try samples of different foods available at the market. It's a great way to start the day and spend time on the island. Afterwards, you can take a quick ride on a ferry across the water to get back to the mainland. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun.

TOP NOTCH, LOTS of FOOD! - This tour is TOP NOTCH! Michael was enthusiastic and very informative. We tried maybe 20 different types of food, very versatile from tea/coffee, to break, to pickles, to Thai food, to dessert! (And many of each). Grenville Island is so quaint and you get time to purchase afterwards (and you get a discount with your name tag). So Fun! My teenage kids would have loved this!

Best way to experience Granville Island Market! - The Granville Island Market is a Vancouver icon, and this tour is the PERFECT way to explore and learn. The market's location is great, taking the Aquabus to the market is a must-do, the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, every food vendor on the tour is amazing.... and if that's not enough, you also get to skip the line for samples while you're on the tour :)

Worth getting up "early" - Enlightening, and exactly the right length. There is so much to see, it was wonderful to have a guide. Plus, plenty of time the rest of the day to further explore.
