Cannot recommend this tour enough!! We had so much fun and experienced several spots we would never had found on our own. Brian was incredible and was so knowledgeable. The drinks, food and conversation were all 5 stars!!

Everything about this...
Everything about this tour was top notch…the drinks, the food, and (for lack of a better word) the “vibes.” We had such a fun evening with Brian, who even gave us additional recommendations for the rest of our trip.

Amazing Cocktail Tour - Loved it!!
Fantastic evening spent with Brian in Chinatown! The cocktails and food were delicious and the locations so unique. We got to choose our own cocktails and our wonderful, knowledgeable guide chose the appetizers; great to try new dishes (which there was plenty!). Would highly recommend this tour with Brian!

GO HERE, NOW!
Feels like going with an older cooler cousin you look upto who's walking you through all the cool neighborhood spots and giving you all the "ins" and "secrets". Loved finding out about the cool entry codes/actions, the story behind some of the places or the names of the drinks. The locations are all spectacular, great food and even better drinks. Our dietary needs were also accommodated by Brian to a T. Despite it being just us three - him, my partner, and I, we had a wonderful relaxing evening where conversation was flowing. Highly recommend, especially if you're genuinely looking for amazing speakeasies and insider tips.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vancouver.
How much does Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown cost?
+
Prices start at $189 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vancouver usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vancouver is not rushed.
Is Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vancouver, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vancouver can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vancouver and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vancouver within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vancouver?
+
On Outty we rank every Vancouver experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Grand Bicycle Tour of Vancouver, The Stanley Park Bicycle Tour, Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Capilano Suspension Bridge & Vancouver Lookout. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vancouver?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vancouver?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown?
+
Included: Personal guide; Snacks; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown?
+

What languages is Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown offered in?
+

Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hidden Cocktail Crawl in Chinatown?
+
