“Fantastic evening food tour - We were looking for a food tour that would take place in the evening so we could make the best use of our limited time in Melbourne. Hugo was such a knowledgeable and engaging tour guide. He brought us to places we would never have found on our own: restaurants with speakeasy vibes and hole-in-the-wall places. These ended up being some of the best food we ate during our entire five weeks in Australia!” (Reviewed on 2025-01-25)
