Description

Your Harbourfront Food Walking Tour will begin with your friendly local guide greeting you outside the Marriott Harbourfront Hotel. From here, you will embark on an unforgettable culinary journey, starting with some incredibly fresh oysters. As you indulge in the ocean's finest, your guide will share local insights and stories about Halifax’s waterfront.

As you continue your exploration, you will make your way toward the next stop, passing the Halifax ferry terminal and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, both of which offer stunning views and rich maritime history. At the second stop on your Halifax food tour, you will savor a rich and creamy seafood chowder. This dish will warm you up and leave your taste buds singing with the flavors of the sea.

After the soup, it's time for a true Halifax classic, the donair. This iconic wrap is a must-try during your visit, with tender meat, fresh veggies, and a signature sweet sauce wrapped in a soft pita. It’s a unique taste of the city you won’t forget.

No visit to Halifax is complete without experiencing its prized lobster. For the final stop of your food walking tour in Halifax, you will enjoy a freshly prepared lobster roll. Paired with a sweet dessert, it’s the perfect way to end your culinary adventure.

As you savor the lobster roll, take in the stunning waterfront views, reflecting on the flavors you have just experienced on one of the best food walking tours in Halifax. With every bite, you will understand why this tour is a favorite for food lovers and visitors alike.

Jim was amazing!! Not only did we have a full "taste" of Halifax (from oysters to donairs!), but Jim was a brilliant conversationalist who answered all of our questions about government, education, the economy and so much more in Canada. Would highly recommend this tour!

Absolutely a Must Do! Nash was an amazing guide—we not only ate five delicious foods, but enjoyed a warm, friendly, informative guide who introduced us to the area’s history and culture. There can’t be better foods in Halifax, nor a better lobster roll in the world (and we’ve tasted Martha Stewart’s favorite in Maine). We’ve never enjoyed such generous portions on a food tour. Cannot recommend highly enough!

The tour was fantastic and our guide Andrew made it so much fun. The stops were varied and the food selection was amazing. If you’re interested in Halifax history, regional food and finding great restaurants this is the tour for you. Excellent value for money. Don’t eat lunch before you go as the servings were very generous.
