TESTIMONIALS

Trusted by travellers worldwide

  • This was a fun tour. We saw interesting areas in Sydney that we would not have discovered on our own. The food was all excellent. We tried some very different things like an infused gin tasting and meat pies at a famous food cart like restaurant. Helen shared interesting information about the history of the various areas. We liked the small group size of just 8 people.

  • We had an amazing time with Jen! She took us all over Sydney and what I really appreciated about this tour is that we went everywhere we were told beforehand and tried lots of different dishes. This tour provided plenty of food and drinks, something that can be very lacking with these type of tours. In addition to having a guide who felt like an old friend, this tour made sure to escort us around the city to get the best eats possible instead of just taking us through one neighborhood making it easy on the guide. This is a must if you like food!
