We had a phenomenal experience exploring Auckland’s culinary highlights with Laura. She brings a unique artistic flair to the tour, likely rooted in her career as a writer and actress; her ability to weave intricate stories about each dish made the tasting much more meaningful. For fans of The Brokenwood Mysteries, it was a special thrill to realize we were being guided by one of the show’s own actresses. She is charming, knowledgeable, and the ultimate host.

The food was amazing, but Alex is the one who made the tour so enjoyable. Kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating, her fun facts made for a fantastic afternoon. Highly recommend this tour. Vielen Dank Alex!

We did the tour with Laura and a total of 8 guests, a nice size. Laura was a fabulous guide, telling/showing us a lot about Auckland, past and present. As for the food, it was all excellent, along with wine at one location. I mentioned I didn’t much like fish, but it was no big deal, and she contacted the next stop and they were able to provide something different at that stop. She didn’t have to do that, since I hadn’t mentioned it ahead of time (I usually just eat around the fish). Lesson: tell them your preferences up front. All in all, a highly recommended activity.

Laura, our guide was a pleasure to experience! Very knowledgeable and kept us safe navigating the streets of Auckland. The food stops were all amazing and her knowledge of the venue and it’s uniqueness added wonderful insights to our experience.

We loved the tour. Alex was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun. Some members of our group didn’t eat certain foods and she was very helpful in getting the restaurants to accommodate. Highly recommend this tour!

We had a very enjoyable and tasty stroll around downtown Auckland with Laura. The food choices were excellent, and the group was small enough to be seated at a single table in each restaurant. Plenty of seafood, with local and Asian flavors, and gelato to complete the afternoon. Highly recommended!
