History and great food from hole in the wall spots - Really fun way to learn more about Melbourne. Some AWESOME Asian food. Best bahn mi I have ever had. Some really great dumplings as well.

A Melbourne Must! - What a way to see Melbourne on foot, learn the history of the city, and eat delicious food. I am still thinking about the banh mi sandwich! Our tour group was lucky to have Andrew as our fearless leader, who led us through the streets and arcades of the city ensuring we had only the best coffee, sweets, and savory foods. He even went above and beyond, providing us with a list of restaurant recommendations (broken down by food genre) which helped guide my mom and I for the rest of stay in Melbourne. All excellent recommendations--Andrew knocked it out of the park!

Fantastic day out in Melbourne! - We had a fantastic day out with Andrew on this Foodie tour. His local knowledge was excellent and he knew all the best spots to eat and drink in Melbourne. At the end of the tour he gave us a long list of his recommendations, we’re locals so will enjoy working through his list! Highly recommend this tour, thanks for a great day!

Hidden gems - This tour took us through some of the lanes and alleyways that we probably wouldn’t found on our own, as well as some popular areas. In addition to sampling various types of food enjoyed by locals, our guide, Chev, related some background historical information about Melbourne. There were some alternative choices for those who didn’t like certain foods, pork or coffee, for example. The group of 10 was a good size.
