‘Gourmand in Gibsons’
A Private Food & Wine Experience
$149 pp plus tax
Wednesdays and Thursdays, October 1st to May 1st
Your ‘Gourmand in Gibsons’ food journey begins in the heart of Historic Gibsons Landing. This guided, fine dining walking tour features a series of delicious courses from celebrated local restaurants. Each meal is served with a complimentary paired wine (32 ounce). We’ll also start out with a tasting stop at Sunshine Coast Olive Oil Co. where you can enjoy a cocktail and savoury local and international delights.
If you are looking to treat yourself to Gibsons’ culinary best, while learning a bit of local lore, this is the tour for you.
Skip the Bill
We pay in advance so you don’t have to. This allows us to easily pop-in and out, and on to next stop on our Sunshine Coast Art Tours food adventure.
*Price includes guide, meals, Wine, Cocktails, restaurant taxes & restaurant gratuity (but not guide gratuity). We are happy to accommodate dietary preferences and wine substitutions.
Let’s get you home safely
Food and wine are good friends and it’s nice to know you can enjoy an evening out while getting home safely. Your well-being is our top priority and for a reasonable fee we offer door-to-door safe rides in our customised 15-passenger high-roofed bus.
Why Gibsons?
Gibsons Landing
The charming town of Gibson’s with its plethora of restaurants, breweries and distilleries is rapidly establishing itself as sought-after food and beverage destination. Add in award-winning chefs and food with a focus on local and seasonal offerings and you have a world class Food and Wine tour. Plus, this is a fantastic way to support local businesses during the off-season.
Partners
So far, we have partnered with six food and beverage establishments on the Landing. We will continue to foster new relationships and will eventually have a rotating roster of partners and ‘food tour’ offerings.
HOW IT WORKS
Your Sunshine Coast Art Tours guide will meet you in the town square beneath the statue of the town’s namesake, George Gibsons (directly across from Molly’s Reach). If you have chosen our Safe- Rides, shuttle service, you and your guests will be picked up in a deluxe 15-passenger Shuttle at your preferred location and transported to Gibsons Landing.
We recommend our shuttle service as there is no safer way to enjoy a food and beverage tour than with a dedicated professional driver / tour guide. Put your feet up and let Sunshine Coast Art Tours show you the town, and at the end of the day, we deliver you back safely to your original pickup location.
Menu
As many of our partnering restaurants offer seasonal meals, it is best to call ahead to see what is on offer a week prior to the tour. Also, a good time to inform us of any of dietary preferences.
