Catherine our tour guide was the best ever. All three restaurants she took us to greeted us with open arms. The set up for wine and food was presented with great pride. We can’t say enough how well Catherine put thing together.

A 10 Star Evening!
Martha_M, May 2023
If I could give this tour 10 Stars, I would! My friends and I scheduled this evening walking tour as a way to help us acclimate to Melbourne time after arriving from the USA early that morning. It was absolutely the perfect way to spend our first evening in Melbourne! Fiona Sweetman from Hidden Secrets Tours planned a wonderful evening at three restaurants with really excellent food and outstanding wine pairings. Ignore that old comment about not enough food, there was plenty. Fiona clearly has a solid rapport with the restauranteurs, as they were very happy to see us, and we had excellent service. The unexpected and delightful surprise was Fiona’s knowledge of Australian and Melbourne history. The entire evening was a really lovely introduction to Melbourne! Book this tour, you will not be disappointed.
Do this one ! It’s huge fun
Carmel_C, Feb 2022
Delicious food and wine in fantastic restaurants, gently lead by a genial guide who enhances the experience with knowledge and wit. Would not have found these spots on my own.
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Dear Carmel, what a joy it was to have you and your wonderful friends on tour with us. Fiona loved having such a happy group, making the most of this time. Thanks for sharing your time, and also your words here. And we hope to see you again perhaps. There are other venues we can visit, Regards

Nicole, our guide, was incredible. Her knowledge of Melbourne's side streets was awesome. We went to three fantastic restaurants. I walked away with new friends that I will reconnect with next year!

Dear ReeRee17 What a fabulous review!, we love hearing from happy clients, especially when our guests make new friends too. A conversational style of tour that we love to share. Nicole was totally chuffed to hear from you, and we will share this review with our team and our venues. Thank you again for taking the time to write a note here!

Sean was a fascinating host and we really enjoyed our evening - we went to places we wouldn't have found otherwise and had some great food and drink. There is more wine than food though, so have a good lunch! Recommended!!
