Your culinary adventure continues at a local charcuterie venue, where you’ll indulge in a board of Canadian cheeses, fresh fruits, and artisanal crackers or bread. Learn how the region’s dairy traditions are reflected in the creamy, flavorful cheeses you’ll sample.

No Canadian food tour is complete without poutine—the ultimate comfort food. Savor a hearty serving of crispy fries topped with cheese curds and gravy, all while your guide shares the history behind this national favorite.

Time for a drink! Stop by a local storefront to taste Niagara’s famous ice wine, a sweet specialty of the region. Your guide will explain how this unique wine is made and why it’s considered a true gem of Canadian winemaking.

Finally, wrap up your tour on a sweet note with a visit to a Canadian fudge shop. Watch the artisans at work as they create their handmade confections, and enjoy a fresh piece of fudge as a delightful end to your day.
