Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had a great time exploring Sydney with Robyn. Due to some travel mishaps we ended up scheduling pretty last minute, and she still took care to customize our tour and make sure we saw the parts of Sydney we hadn't seen yet. We loved the interesting historical context she provided and had a great time exploring The Rocks. We would have missed out on some of the most interesting parts of Sydney had it not been for our time with Robyn!"
"We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Robyn. She shared with us a wealth of knowledge about Sydney and its history, she showed us all the major highlights of the city, but also the hidden gems that we would never have found on our own. Robyn is interesting and informative, as well as personable and pleasant to be with. "
"Robyn filled our minds with history, culture and community and our tummies with a melting pot of ethnic specialties! One of the best food tours we've ever done and we've traveled extensively. Go hungry because it was plenty of food, we didn't eat breakfast, our tour was at 9 am and we were still full at dinnertime!"
"We had an amazing 10 tastings tour with Robyn. She was so warm and friendly and made us feel like family. She did a great job communicating before the tour and was so knowledgeable balancing our food tour with stories about the food and the history of Sydney. We tried some unique and delicious foods and had so much to eat we could hardly finish the last few tastings. It was the highlight of our time in Sydney and I can’t recommend her enough. I’m still dreaming of the Tokyo Tacos and wish I didn’t have to cross an entire ocean to eat them again. "
"We had a wonderful time getting to know Robyn and Australian culture. She took us to some great unforgettable gems of Sydney. We did the 7hr walking tour and Robyn went at our pace. She did frequent check-ins with my us. The food she introduced to us was also very delicious. Such a great experience for us."
"My son, Noah(17) , and I had an 8 hour layover in Sydney. We decided to book the food tour with Robyn and are so glad we did. Robyn was an absolute gem! Her knowledge was so extensive on food, history and literally anything else we asked. She was extremely pleasant and fun to spend the day with. The curated food stops were just amazing. Sydney is a city that is a melting pot of all different cultures and we were really able to see and taste that along our tour. My only regret is I didn’t do this tour during the beginning of my trip so I could have gone back to some of these hidden gems. I consider myself a foodie, and I searched extensively for places to eat on our trip and I didn’t find any of these spots. I highly suggest you book and like I said at the start so you can visit the spots again! Thank you Robyn!!!"
"I cannot recommend a tour with Robyn enough - she was welcoming, knowledgeable, fun, and really showed us the best Newtown has to offer. "
"We have had so many wonderful Tours With Locals, our tour with Chris was a little disappointing. Starting time was moved to 8:30 (which we agreed to). The North Sydney harbor front was a nice stroll & great views of the city across the bay. Took the train over to the city. A lot of back streets with not many hidden gems. Chris had a previous appointment, so our tour was only about 2 hours. I count on honest reviews. This is an honest one."
"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."
"We loved our time with Chris in the Newtown area. This is a trendy area of Sydney considered best for foodies. If you're considering a food tour in the Sydney area, this is the one to do. Chris customized the tour to our preferences and showed us the insider's tips to good food in Sydney. This is a must! "
