Off the Eaten Track, Victoria Food & Walking Tours
14 Years of Curating Victoria’s Most Exceptional Food Experiences
Since 2012, Off The Eaten Track has set the standard for culinary tourism in Victoria. As the oldest food tour company on Vancouver Island, we don’t follow trends — we’ve helped shape the local food conversation.
Founded by acclaimed food writer and restaurant judge Bonnie Todd, our tours are built on deep industry relationships, insider knowledge, and a passion for culinary excellence. Bonnie has served as a judge for the YAM Magazine Restaurant Awards and regularly contributes to regional food publications — giving our guests access to a level of expertise few tour companies can offer.
When you tour with us, you’re not just tasting — you’re stepping inside Victoria’s culinary story with someone who helps define it.
Why Choose Off The Eaten Track

We collaborate with Victoria’s top-rated restaurants, acclaimed chefs, and award-winning producers. Expect generous, thoughtfully curated tastings that reflect creativity, craftsmanship, and the best of Vancouver Island’s seasonal bounty.

Our guides are professionally trained storytellers — blending history, architecture, culture, and culinary insight into a seamless narrative. Every stop has context. Every dish has a story.

Our mission is to provide a fun, safe, dependable and memorable experience. We intentionally cap our tours at 12 guests. This allows for meaningful storytelling, deeper connection, and a relaxed, unhurried pace that feels refined rather than rushed.
