Loved it. - What an exceptional day. Colleen is a wonderful tour guide. Not only was the food incredible, we got to see some of Melbourne's amazing street art in the many laneways we visited. A thoroughly enjoyable experience and one that I would highly recommend.

Bucket Lost Foodie Walking Tour of Melbourne - Excellent walking tour with historical highlights. Very much enjoyed the Chocolate, Spanish, Modern Asian and Peruvian dishes (and paired cocktails!) we sampled and the Filipino Artisan Gelato. Highly recommend this experience.

Do the tour! - I appreciated the mix between history/stories and visiting amazing buildings in Melbourne and the visits to food places. My group did a chocolate tastings, then to Spanish, Asian fusion, Peruvian and ice-cream with a twist. A small group of delightful people, with a great guide. The food was so different to what I have had before - a revelation. And the great thing is, I live close to Melbourne, so I can go back to all the places we visited. Thanks to Sandra and my fellow foodies - lovely day. Clare

Great fun and great value! - Had an absolute blast! Our guide Colleen was very knowledgeable and fun. We took this tour so it would give us an idea what was around the City and what places to go to during our stay. Highly recommend doing this tour especially if you don't know your way around Melbourne.

Highly recommend - A memorable day of great food and excellent company with my tour group participants. Our guide Sandra was well scripted with local knowledge and knows a thing or two about where to eat! Food portions start off as snack and progress to moderate. I was very full by the end of the tour however larger appetites may be left wanting more.
