Was a great experience exploring with a guide rather than on our own! He was super friendly and easy to talk to, and we also tried amazing food that we would not have found by ourselves.

John was a great guide sharing his knowledge and history of Melacca. Good combination of walking the local streets mixed with car trips to areas away from the town centre. Thansk John for making us welcome to your home town!

I attended a night food tour in Melaka and had a fantastic experience. Our guide, John, was engaging throughout the entire journey and delivered everything that was promised on the website. He shared insightful stories about Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat, explained the significance of Malaysia’s national flower, the hibiscus, and even broke down the meaning behind each petal and how it links to the nation’s values. The storytelling added great depth and context to the walk. The food portion was equally impressive — I was fed until I genuinely couldn’t eat anymore, which is the highest compliment for any food tour. Overall, it was a well-paced, informative, and satisfying night tour that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Melaka.

Delicious food that I would not have tried if I didn’t join this tour. We also learned about the history of Melaka along the way. Guide John was amazing and funny.

We joined the Melaka After Dark Tour and had an amazing time. Our guide, John, was absolutely fantastic — humorous, friendly, and made the whole experience very enjoyable. The food served during the tour was great, and we were extremely full by the end of the night. Definitely come with an empty stomach! A fun and satisfying way to experience Melaka at night. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting.

An amazing food tour experience in Malacca. The guide was excellent, the selection of food was impressive, and we got to sample so many local delicacies. We ate incredibly well and enjoyed every moment. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Malacca.

The Malacca night food tour was honestly a great experience. It was a really easy and enjoyable way to try local food without having to figure out where to go or what to order. Our guide was friendly and knew the area well, sharing little stories about the food and neighbourhoods as we walked. We tried a good mix of dishes, including a few things I would not have thought to order myself, and everything felt nicely paced so we were full but not stuffed. Walking through the night markets and quieter streets made it feel very local and relaxed. If you enjoy eating and exploring at the same time, this tour is definitely worth doing.
