Meet the Makers Native Australian Food Tour

7 Reviews

4 hours

Overview

This small-group half-day food tour digs into native Australian flavours through the people making them. You’ll visit a mix of well-known and lesser-known spots, including Sydney Fish Market, a boutique distillery, family-run coffee roasters and local chocolatiers, with tastings along the way. Private transport and a guided lunch are included, so it’s a more curated, premium option for travellers who want depth rather than just hopping between food stops.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

If you’re into food and want something more personal than a standard city tour, this gives you a lot in one booking: transport, tastings, lunch and direct access to local producers. It suits backpackers who are happy to spend more for a well-organised small-group experience with a local angle, especially if you're short on time but still want a solid introduction to Australian ingredients beyond the usual tourist spots.

What to expect

The tour runs with a local guide and includes private car transfers between stops, taking you through quieter Sydney neighbourhoods as well as bigger-name venues. Expect a mix of behind-the-scenes access, producer stories and hands-on elements, including coffee, rum and native ingredient tastings or workshops. There’s also a fish market visit with curated tastings, plus a private guided lunch focused on native Australian cuisine. Water and refreshments are provided during the tour.
