FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Some information to help you plan your virtual event.
How does a virtual experience work?

It’s easy! Guests are given a delivery window time and the samples are delivered to each guests’s door with no contact necessary. Or guests receive their tasting box via shipping. Guests are given the link via email so that they can log-on to the event. Off The Eaten Track then hosts the experience online and leads the group through the tasting.

How many people can attend a virtual experience?

Depends on the event but it ranges from 4-10 guests minimum. We take a maximum of 40 deliveries per day. More then one person can attend on one computer so the number of attendees is technically unlimited however our delivery capabilites do have a limit. The smaller the group the more intimate the experience.

What if there are dietary concerns, allergies and vegetarians in the group?

No worries, we can absolutely accommodate vegetarians, some allergies and most dietary concerns. As long as we know in advance, we can usually make anything happen!

How does the process work for booking a private experience?
We highly suggest you give us a call so we can chat about what your needs are so we can recommend the appropriate tour (778-918-4584). After that we usually require a 50% deposit to hold the date. That deposit is 100% refundable up to 48 hours before the tour commences. We issue the remaining invoice 24 hours before the tour starts and then you sit back and just enjoy the experience!
What if we don’t know how many guests will be attending?
No worries, we just need a general idea of what the minimum number would be. We can always add or remove as things change. We just need a final number 24 hours before the experience commences for delivery and a longer window for shipping.
What online platform do you use to host the experiences?
We use a few: Zoom is the most common but we can also host using Google Meet or Microsoft Teams. If you have a prefered platform we are open to using what is best for you.
How long are the virtual experiences?
Up to you but we suggest a minimum of 45 minutes. Typically our virual experiences are 1-hour long and typically no longer then 2-hours.
