Melbourne food history tour with food.

Think Melbourne food history tour with food. The bites along the way were great, the tour guide was great, the meal at the end was great.

Fabulous Melbourne Food Tour

We did the laneways and food tour with Kathy. The tour was very comprehensive and we learned so much about the history of the food found in Melbourne. We even experienced the first expresso coffee bar. I would highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed.

Melbourne food tour

Excellent tour guide Cathy. Very knowledgeable about the city and food history. We were lucky to be the only two the tour. We sampled excellent food and taken down lanes pointing out bars and food venues which we wouldn't have noticed. I would highly recommend.

Kathy - Melbourne Foodie Tour

Kathy was a fantastic host for a Taste of Melbourne Food. Her deep and intimate knowledge of the history of Melbourne and the individual restaurants which comprise its rich food culture was fascinating. On a day that was particularly hot she paid close attention to our comfort, making sure that each tasting stop served us water and that when on the street we were in the shade. This is a great experience that we highly recommend.
