    My daughter and I had such an amazing experience on our Foodie Culture Tour of Melbourne. Our lovely Host (Christine) was so knowledgeable on the history of Melbourne. We not only saw many interesting sites, we also stopped into 6 different restaurants throughout the day. Amazing day!! Thank you 🤩

    Met our guide Christine at the Immigration Museum. She was very personable, informative and had many funny anecdotes to amuse us along the way, After showing us through the museum, the foodie tour stared in earnest. We began with Vietnamese street food, then on for some dumplings in China town. Along the way Christine showed us through some amazing buildings and gave us a running commentary on how each of the different cultures have helped to shape the city of Melbourne. Then on to taste some wonderful Indian food, with more anecdotes. Federation Square was next where we had an amazing feed of Octopus, Emu and pickled watermelon. Just when we thought we couldn't eat anymore, we topped it off with gelato. A truly amazing tour which I highly recommend. Thanks Christine for an exceptional experience.

    I went for a Melbourne Foodie Culture tour and to be very honest, I had some of the most amazing food and experience! I've always been a fan of collecting stories and this trip was exactly that! It's well-curated, takes into consideration your food preferences, takes you to the best spots in town, I think my favourite was the Aboriginal Food Joint where we had some authentic aboriginal food and the ending where we met someone who'd gone to a gelato - school to learn how to make gelato! There are sooo many cultures here in Melbourne and it was a pure delight to be able to access them all in a span of 4 hours along with so many stories! I got some great stories for my IG - @capturesmagic so tbh FOODIE TRAILS - YOU ARE MAGIC ✨ thank you for the experience!
