First thing off the bat.. Our guide was awesome.. He was very knowledgeable and very friendly ensuring that each person was taken care off.. In saying that, he was the best part of the tour.. I was genuinely excited about this tour. Whilst I found some of the places that we visited interesting, they weren't hands-on whatsoever.. A gourmet food... More

“Fabulous trip”

Reviewed 19 May 2013

I went on the Inner West tour and had a great time. The driver/guide was very good and very knowledgable. The Italian deli was a highlight but all the places were great. It was an excellent way to discover gourmet Sydney.

“A Must!!”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

This experience was one of the tops in Sydney. What better way to explore a city or a country than through its cuisine. Not only did we make 5 stops with different cuisines and drinks, but we got to to to 5 different neighborhoods and areas. We started with a wonderful Italian deli, as good as any Bronx Arthur Avenue... More
