Molly was a wonderful guide for this tour that included a cafe stop, several stops & tastings in the Queen Victoria Market, a small lunch at an interesting Japanese restaurant, ending with an adult beverage at a local brewery in the market. Very well organized & fun! Only little hiccup was where to meet because of the street numbers.
Molly is a super guide...

We had the best time on our tour this morning with Molly. We loved finding all of the little places that she took us to and learning about the history and what makes each place so special. Lunch was delicious and there were so many tasting places along the way which were all great. Thank you Molly and we would highly recommend her tour for everyone.

I can’t recommend Taste of Melbourne Tours enough – it was honestly one of the best things I’ve done in the city. From the get-go, our host Molly made everyone feel welcome. She’s warm, funny, and clearly knows her stuff when it comes to Melbourne’s food and drink scene. We wandered through laneways I’ve never noticed before, ducking into cosy cafés, cool little bars, and hidden eateries that I’d probably walk right past on my own. Every stop felt like a discovery! One of the nicest surprises was how friendly everyone on the tour was. It didn’t take long before we were all chatting like old friends – there’s something about bonding over great food and drinks that just brings people together. If you're into local flavours, good vibes, and want to see a side of Melbourne that most people miss, this tour is a must. Molly made it feel like we were being shown around by a friend who knows all the city’s best-kept secrets. Loved every minute of it!
Drink coffee like a Melbournian!

Had a great time wandering the streets of Melbourne and seeing the local roasters and cafes! Even when it was raining, Molly kept the mood high! She was insightful and taught me a lot about the coffee that is made in Melbourne. Would highly recommend!!

Our tour with Molly was absolutely wonderful. We saw more of the area than just the QVM itself but we're also treated to many delicious adventures within the market. We were given insight on Australian and specifically Melbournian food and culture. This tour is probably best for 18+ but she was very accommodating and made sure our 12 y.o. had equally delicious options in places where we enjoyed beverages she might not want or couldn't have. The food samples were varied and plentiful and we were offered interesting information and discounts at all the stops. Cheers, Molly!
Amazing tour experience

Absolutely loved this tour!! Molly had us feeling like locals checking out the coolest (and most delicious) spots around Melbourne. She is a wealth of knowledge and experience in the dining and site seeing scene, answering all of our questions between locations. We can’t recommend her tours enough!!
Fun & Yum !!

Just wanting to share what a spectacular time we had on our tour with Molly!! The moment I saw the bright Pink Jumpsuit in the distance, knew that we were in for a fun filled day :D really cannot recommend enough if you want to find a few hidden gems in the city that you would definitely miss otherwise (Born and raised in Melbourne and even I was surprised!!). Keep doing what you're doing Molly, think you have found your calling :))
