Local Sauce Tours - Sydney Food, Bar & Walking Tours

Amazing tour! Steve was awesome, super friendly guy and very insightful. Sydney, its history and sights are already incredible as is, but his ability to tell the story was both enlightening and entertaining. I loved that this tour did not shy away from bearing light on the Aboriginal people, who they are, and some of their history as well — particularly the Gadigal people of the Eora nation where Sydney is situated. Beyond that, we got to try some local snacks and beer. I found the whole thing to be a really fun and engaging experience. Highly recommend!

I joined this Chinatown food tour thinking ahead to when friends visit—and ended up discovering places and stories I hadn’t known as well as I thought. I knew Mother Chu from UberEats 😄; the tour made it feel properly known. Every other stop was new, authentic, and full of history. Justin, our guide, was knowledgeable and empathetic without being performative. The tour offers clear historical context and gently highlights how migrants who faced the biggest barriers helped shape Australia’s food culture. Well paced, well fed, and genuinely interesting. Highly recommend.

We completed your small group walking tour today with Matt as our guide. He did an amazing job of taking our group through the history of Australia, the development of Sydney, and sharing stories behind many key locations along our trek. Matt was super knowledgeable, very personable, a true gentleman, and took great care of all of us.

The walking tour of Sydney was a great experience. It’s a great way to familiarize yourself with the city while having fun and learning a few things. Our tour guide, Steve, was incredible. He was knowledgeable, funny, and made sure everyone was having a good time. Be ready for some jokes. Pro tip: if you land in Sydney in the morning after a long flight, book the morning walking tour. It’s a great way to keep you up and avoid the jet lag.

This was a great tour, In fact I went back to 2 of the restaurants this evening and my new favorite dumpling is a soup dumpling. Best of both worlds. The guide was great and gave a lot of information that I didn't know as well as introduced some great food. I really enjoyed the tour. It's a must if you're not familiar with Asian cuisine. This is my 1st food tour with ALL my allergies and I was able to enjoy it! Wish I had more pictures but we weren't too busy chowing down.

Had such a wonderful time during the walking tour. Jake made the tour so fun and entertaining — it was like flipping thru a history storybook. It was not boring at all! His delivery of the history of Sydney would really get you hooked. Lots of fun with a lot of facts! Highly recommend and if you could join Jake’s tour — he’s amazing! he also gave us resto recommendations :)

I absolutely loved this Sydney City Walking History Tour. Jake was an incredible guide, friendly, engaging, and full of fascinating stories about the city’s past. He brought Sydney’s history to life with humor and insight, connecting historic landmarks with modern-day culture in a really fun way. The pace was perfect, with plenty of time to take in the sights and ask questions. I learned so much about the early colonial days, hidden laneways, and the characters that shaped Sydney. Jake’s passion for the city really made the experience memorable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Sydney beyond the usual tourist spots. Thanks again, Jake, for a great day!

Michael was great. Very detailed. Very enjoyable. At times his voice trailed off a bit. That'd be my only slight critique. But 95% of the time it was great. We learned so much over those four hours. Good value. 👍🏽
