Our tour starts at a quintessentially Victoria donut shop, Empire Donuts, in the heart of downtown. Empire is known for its unique donuts in an intergalactic 50’s diner style shop. From there, we walk a short distance to a beloved coffee and donut spot in Victoria, passing some of the best restaurant locations (according to our guides!) along the way. Next, we will make our way down to Government Street, taking in the inner harbour which includes the Empress hotel and parliament buildings. As we weave our way back into downtown, we will eventually hit our third donut spot, a local ma and pop shop for delightful donuts. Finally, we will walk towards Chinatown and end at Friend and Family Bake in Fantan Alley. This bakery has numerous Filipino treats, including donuts, and if we are lucky, we can see these delicious treats being made. We can’t wait to show you this wonderful city in all its donut glory! We hope to see you soon! Book your tour today!

For the love of donuts

It was a lot of fun. Erk was very informative and gave interesting and fun facts about Victoria and the donut shops. You eat a lot of donuts and they are different. Highly recommended for donut lovers.

Doughnuts, cronuts, churros and everything in between!

Erk was an amazing, fun, informative guide! We learned much about the history of Victoria and more about doughnuts - who knew?! The doughnuts/locations were delicious and all great choices. Thank you for a lovely 2 hours!

A "sweet" day of donuts

Erk was an excellent guide: knowledgeable, personable and professional. Our family enjoyed the tour very much & with two younger kids, certainly recommend it to other families! Learned so much about donuts that I never knew!
