Experience Details

This locally guided food walking tour includes all tastings and a real insight into the life of a local.


As they say, you can't beat Wellington on a good day and while we can't control the weather, we do like to make it a great days while you're exploring the city with us. The tour includes coffee, chocolate, a second generation owned restaurant, a gorgeous waterfront eatery with a special purpose and maybe the answer to the question 'where is the best cheese scone?" And we're topping it off with craft beer, charcuterie and cheese. Wellington is the culinary capital of New Zealand and we love you all our hidden gems!


It's a slow paced walking tour that shared the character, culture and history of this great capital city along the way. There is time to stop and buy if you would like to and our very knowledgeable team are more than happy to set you right for places to eat and enjoy during your tour!


All guests must be over 18 to try any alcohol
