About

This guided walking tour features 4 delicious courses at four award winning Whistler restaurants. Included is a visit to an impressive 15,000-bottle wine cellar where guests learn to saber champagne. If you are looking to treat yourself to Whistler’s best, this is the tour for you.

All along your guide will enhance the experience with their local knowledge and enthusiasm for the wonderful restaurant dining scene in Whistler.

Guests will also collect a playing card at each venue with prizes for the best poker hands at last stop (no experience necessary).

Optional Wine Pairings

We first serve a 3oz glass of BC sparkling wine after one of the guests chops open the bottle with a sword at the first restaurant. The next two restaurants serve a 3oz glass of your choice between a red or white wine and we finish with a 1oz glass of BC’s famous icewine at the last restaurant.

The price includes 10% liquor tax and associated gratuities which makes it great value for guests wishing to have wine with their dinner. Any additional wine or drinks can be purchased directly from the restaurants.
