So far I have been on many food tours. On this one, I didn’t think I could get anything new, but I was wrong. Our tour guide introduced us to Turkish ice cream; different Aussie pies, rolls and cakes, and a Vietnamese appetizer. I was fascinated from the food tour and can only recommend to do it.

Chris, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the different types of Australian food. The experience was listed as food and drink and the expectation when drink is advertised that an alcoholic beverage be on the menu but it was not. I felt the tour was in an area less traveled by tourists. I would have preferred the venue take place in the CBD. With the exception of the tokyotaco and the thai food, the food was not very good. Not a good value for your money.

This food tour was an absolute blast! Chris, our guide, was a whole vibe and super knowledgeable about the food and local history. He was also incredibly patient with us snapping pics at every stop. Don’t be fooled by the portion sizes, we shared every plate and it was definitely enough for two. Dietary restrictions accommodated. TokyoTaco and Black Star Pastry were standout favorites - 10/10! Highly recommend and would definitely do it again!

My wife and I were in Sydney for a few days and decided to take a Foodie Tour. I had communicated with Robyn and she agreed to pick us up at our hotel. The Foodie Tour was in Newtown. Robyn was very knowledgable and personable. She was a wonderful guide. We had a great time. The food was excellent and Robyn knew some of the people who worked in the restaurants. So, we had a chance to get to speak and learn about their business. I can't say enough about how Robyn made this a wonderful tour to remember.

Guide never showed or contacted us. Viator refunded the cost, but we wasted a morning and some Uber charges. Guide later text and said she doubled booked. I would not recommend.

Completely enjoyed the afternoon we spent with Robyn touring through a neighborhood in Sydney tasting various foods and learning about the culture and history of the area. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sydney. She also went out of her way to help us navigate the train system to get to where we were touring and then back to our hotel.
Great food tour

Robyn was an amazing tour guide. She was super knowledgeable, and took us to so many great places. One we were able to go back to before we left. She gave us great tips for the area and some for when we go to NZ.
Friendly, flexible and focused

Robyn was inquisitive about what we hoped to see/do/experience--relatable to our party aged 20-54 and knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed our time together. The amount of food and variety was terrific. The street art around Newtown was an added bonus. Overall a great experience.
Only OK

This tour was only ok. Our guide was not very engaging and was a challenge to connect with. Three of the food stops felt unique to Australia but the rest was food we have at home in the US, including Thai and Indian food. None of the food was especially good.
