Discovering delicious Melaka food - We had a great time on the tour. John was very knowledgeable and led us to places we would not have found on our own. The food was interesting, delicious, and a balanced mix of Malay, Baba Nyonya, Indian, and Chinese. Would recommend.

5 star wonderful local food tour from an experienced guide - We were guided through several eateries both inside local restaurants and sitting at Street vendor stalls in local alleyways that we would not probably have ventured into without a guide. John was informative about the history, mixture of cultures and ethnic heritages of the population local to Malacca and the effects on the cuisine and intermingling of flavours. He was very informative and selected some good and varied foods for us to try. Altogether a great experience.

Insights into Melaka's multicultural heritage through food - A fantastic way to discover Melaka! For me, the food tours are one of the best experiences to get to know the culture of a place and this tour was exactly what I expected. Our guide John is a true local expert who knows all the family-run stalls that have been around for generations. He also explained the roots of Peranakan culture and history of Melaka. A must for anyone who wants to know the "why" behind the food.

Great walking Food Tour with John - We had a fantastic food walking tour and would highly recommend it. Our guide John was extremely knowledgeable and clearly very experienced, especially when it comes to the authentic and diverse cuisine of Malaysia and Melaka in particular. He introduced us to many local dishes and explained their cultural background in a way that made the experience much more meaningful. In addition to the food, he shared many fascinating insights about the local culture, traditions, and history of the area. The route itself was beautiful, especially the walk along the river, which made the tour even more enjoyable. It felt like a perfect combination of great food, cultural learning, and sightseeing. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and definitely deserves a 5-star rating.

A lovely evening Melaka food tour - My wife and I had a very enjoyable evening Melaka food tour with our guide John. He was friendly and knowledgeable. 2 of the food stops were places we would have walked straight past as tourists. He was also very careful when ordering after we had informed him of a food allergy. Many thanks John
