What a fantastic way to see Melbourne. We learned a little about the city, its people, hidden laneways & of course what the locals love to eat & drink. The website says “tastes” of food. The portions are delicious & generous and by the end you’ll be full. We didn’t need dinner afterwards. Monique is an excellent guide & knows her city. Although we are four Victorians we learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Highly recommended

A really fun afternoon with Monique and a lovely bunch of fellow travelers being treated to a great history tour of Melbourne and the evolution of the vast array of beautiful food to be found in the city. Highly recommend you book this experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a great tour to get to know the ins and outs of Melbourne. Our tour guide Chev was awesome. The food was great and so was the company. It was a small group of 9 so that was nice.

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour through Melbourne on our first day here. Not only did we get a taste of the foodie culture but we learned a lot about the city! Andrew was a fantastic guide, giving us tons of info about the founding of Melbourne, the historic landmarks and streets we passed, in addition to explaining the backgrounds of the different foods and restaurants we stopped at. Would 100% recommend, especially for newcomers to Melbourne!
