Great venue, guide & group - Qv market is a fantastic multicultural melting pot of food and products. It’s great when a diverse mix of strangers join up with a knowledgeable and engaging guide and see an interesting venue. Within a very short space of time we were sharing thoughts on the things we were seeing and tasting and learning about each other’s backgrounds and interests. I can absolutely recommend it.

Fabulous food, history and culture tour with Tristan. - Great perspectives on the history of Melbourne and the market, particularly the food and drink culture - loved the ‘coffee was the gateway drug to European food culture’ bit. Tastings were really good - even as a Melbourne local we went to areas of the market we don’t usually go to, and met someone lovely stall holders. Particularly liked the all Australian deli - we’ll be visiting there again for sure - but the coffee, donuts, and Gelato were also very good. Overall it was a great tour - this was our second tour with Tristan and he was really great again.

Delicious birthday treat! - What a delicious morning! Anna is a wonderful storyteller and brought our international group together so well that by the end of the 3 hours, we had inside jokes and so many laughs. Such a great tour to surprise my husband with for his birthday.

Great Cultural and food adventure - Enjoyed every minute of this tour by Anna, who patiently shared her wealth of knowledge about the market history and design aspects of building, traders background and stuff that you would normally don’t think about when roaming the place without a trusted guide
