Full description Experience the flavors of Niagara-on-the-Lake on a guided food tour through its charming streets. This small-group experience takes you to six carefully selected stops, where you’ll sample Canada’s most iconic treats, from rich maple syrup and buttery tarts to savory poutine and world-famous ice wine. Along the way, your expert guide will share fascinating stories, including the unbelievable tale of the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist.

Begin your journey with a VIP maple syrup tasting before the shop opens to the public. Try a variety of syrups, discover how this liquid gold is made, and enjoy a special maple treat.

Next, visit a historic bakery to taste Canada’s beloved butter tart—a flaky, sweet dessert with a rich filling. Hear the story behind this local delicacy and why it’s a must-try in Canadian cuisine.

Continue your culinary adventure at a local charcuterie venue, where you’ll indulge in a selection of Canadian cheeses, fresh fruit, and artisanal crackers. Learn how Niagara’s dairy traditions influence the flavors of these delicious cheeses.

No Canadian food tour is complete without poutine—a comforting dish of crispy fries topped with cheese curds and gravy. Enjoy this national favorite while your guide shares its fascinating history.

Then, sip on Niagara’s famous ice wine, a uniquely sweet and luxurious specialty. Your guide will explain the freezing process that makes this wine so distinctive and why it’s considered a true gem of the region.

End your tour on a sweet note with a visit to a traditional fudge shop.
