Private Foodie Tour - Newtown, Sydney - Fantastic Experience! Our host - Robyn Vernon - was prompt, knowledgeable and kept our group of four moving at an appropriate pace. We had 10 gastric and beverage stops and truly enjoyed them all! The strawberry - watermelon cake at Black Star Pastries was incredible - as was Tokyo Taco, Robyn gave wonderful historical narratives along the way and made it a point to take us down several side streets to explain many of the murals and local artwork. I highly recommend this tour and suggest you request Robyn if you can.

Great food walking tour - Robyn was very knowledgeable. Food scene is absolutely wonderful. Everything we ate was fantastic. Also learned about some history too. A little pricey though.

Tasting tours are the best. - The highlight of the walking tour was a stop at The Black Star bakery. Not only were selections works of art but very tasty. The watermelon cake had a slice of real watermelon in it.

Awesome experience! - What a fabulous day we had on this food tour with Robyn! It was far more than just about food. We got to experience the local Sydney neighborhood of Newtown, learning about the area's history, culture and people as well as the food. Robyn was articulate, personable, highly knowledgeable, and interesting. She was easy to communicate with before our tour, quickly responding to my questions. She was also flexible, adjusting the tour to our group's needs, such as dietary restrictions. We went to a multitude of restaurants and a pub, tasting a large variety of foods and drinks. Everyone in our group loved the experience, and it far exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend it!

Fun experience but overpriced - Great guide and really cool neighborhood. Tour way overpriced for the food items. Good “street food” and fun way to get a feel for Australian food culture. Knowledgeable and fun guide. Was expecting much more relative to food, restaurants vs. counter service, ambiance, and ideally an occasional glass of beer/wine.

Not what I expected - We thought the food tasting would be Australian cuisine. Instead, it was a tasting of other cultures which isn’t what we wanted to experience.
