WHISTLER LIFE

Which Whistler Tasting Tour Should You Try?

It’s an age-old dilemma for any visitor to Whistler: with so many awesome restaurants, bars, and cafes, how do you possibly choose which ones to visit?

Luckily, Whistler Tasting Tours has come up with a perfect solution: in one evening, you can join a guided tour of like-minded people to visit several of Whistler’s top dining spots.

Not only are the tours an efficient way of experiencing some of Whistler’s best meals, but they’re also a great way to get to know Whistler Village, to meet new people, and to get the most bang for your buck.

Deciding to embark on a Whistler Tasting Tour is the easy part. The tough part is deciding which tour to try. Take this quiz to help you find your perfect fit.

It’s your lucky day – the local radio station has just phoned to inform you that you’ve won an all-expenses paid trip abroad! There are three prize packages to choose from, and you have exactly 60 seconds to choose one. Which do you pick?

  1. A Parisian escape where you’ll have a chance to shop, visit nearby wineries, and enjoy a five course meal prepared especially for you by a world renowned French chef beneath the twinkling lights of the Eiffel Tower.
  2. A cultural getaway to Croatia that involves exploring local markets, sampling the fresh seafood, and discovering hole-in-the-wall restaurants with incredible creations inspired by local ingredients.
  3. A decadent trip to Switzerland where you’ll travel through the mountains, indulge in traditional fondue, and tour a chocolate factory – complete with endless samples.

When you’re looking to try a new restaurant, which of the following is the most important factor to you?

  1. The restaurant has to offer a completely unique experience that will make for a memorable evening.
  2. The restaurant should be known for offering a particular type of cuisine, or excelling in one special dish that you just can’t get anywhere else.
  3. The restaurant needs to have a compelling cocktail menu – and a delicious dessert menu, too.

You’re flipping through a magazine on an airplane and notice there’s an article highlighting the city you’re about to visit. The article features a very favourable review for a new restaurant. Your thoughts are:

  1. “This sounds phenomenal – I have to try it!”
  2. “I’ll pass – I’d rather rely on a local’s recommendation than a magazine’s.”
  3. “Looks interesting, but I want to know more. What makes this restaurant unique?”

For one day only, you get to choose one of the following perks on Whistler/Blackcomb. Which do you choose?

  1. A special pass that lets you cut to the front of the line of any chairlift.
  2. Exclusive access to secret run that nobody else knows about – and that is covered with a foot of fresh powder.
  3. A VIP seat at après for you and three friends, complete with a private bartender who can whip up anything you can imagine.
