Description
Join our Secret Food Tour: Melbourne and uncover the city’s vibrant food culture, where global influences meet proudly Australian flavors. Follow your local expert guide through Melbourne’s iconic and hidden laneways, tasting your way through the heart of the city’s multicultural culinary scene.
As you walk, you’ll learn how Melbourne became Australia’s food capital — shaped by waves of immigration and the creativity of passionate locals. From hole-in-the-wall street food vendors to sophisticated boutique eateries, every tasting reveals a story of flavor, tradition, and innovation.
Depending on the season, you may sample indigenous delicacies like crocodile, emu, or kangaroo; savor rustic Roma-style focaccia; discover local cheeses and artisanal chocolates; and indulge in Greek-style desserts or small-batch gelato. Along the way, you’ll sip locally roasted coffee, enjoy a wine tasting, and even discover a secret Chinese street food loved by Melburnians.
This 3-hour guided food adventure will leave you full, inspired, and connected to Melbourne’s food-loving soul. By the end, you’ll have not only tasted the city’s best bites but also discovered its hidden corners, stories, and culinary heart.
