Niagara Culinary Tours began after a trip to Charleston where a food tour inspired Steven and Kimberley to create their own company. Realizing how incredibly lucky they are to live in Niagara they knew this was a wonderful way to share their good fortune with others. We have so many chefs known for being locavores, an area steeped in history, surrounded by VQA wines and the Niagara Escarpment. Whether you are a visiting world traveller, a day tripper or a local who wants to stop and smell the prosciutto, Niagara Culinary Tours is for you.
