What you can expect

Discover the heart of Canada’s capital through its food, stories, and people on our Ottawa Food Tour in the historic ByWard Market. Since 1826, this lively area has been the city’s culinary gathering place, where chefs, artisans, and locals come together to share the best of Ottawa’s flavours.

Guided by a passionate local expert, you’ll stroll through charming streets and vibrant market stalls while learning the fascinating history of Ottawa and its oldest area. Along the way, you’ll visit iconic eateries and hidden gems that have shaped the city’s food culture.

Your journey includes 7 delicious tastings, each representing a slice of Canadian identity. Begin with a warm, golden BeaverTail, a must-try Ottawa treat. Then, step inside the city’s oldest tavern to enjoy rich, comforting poutine topped with authentic squeaky cheese curds.

Next, delight in artisanal cheeses crafted by regional producers, followed by molasses-glazed duck, a dish that showcases local creativity and depth of flavour. You’ll also sample pure maple syrup, exploring its subtle variations and cultural roots, a true Canadian icon.

The experience ends with a decadent dessert that ties the journey together — plus a secret tasting exclusive to our guests.

More than just a meal, this tour is a flavourful walk through Ottawa’s history, culture, and community. Come hungry and leave inspired by the city’s culinary spirit!
