Local Sauce Tours - Sydney Food, Bar & Walking Tours - Haymarket, New South Wales

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.

My family and I did the Sydney Walking Tour with our tour guide Michael, who shared his vast knowledge on Australia’s history. He took us to the different key points around Sydney’s CBD and gave us a general feel of what it’s like to go around the city. We ended the tour at Squire’s Landing with a glass of beer which was delightful! Michael even gave us a list of other places and restaurants to visit while we were in the city! 😄

Fantastic tour! The tour was very informative and great value for money. Our guide was very informative and passionate about what he does. We tried delicious food and learnt the stories behind some beautiful street art. We got a lot out of doing the tour rather than just walking around the area on our own. Highly recommend for visitors to Sydney!

Local Sauce was the 3rd and final food/drink tour I partook in while I was in Sydney Australia on holiday recently and I have to say, it was the best in terms of price, keeping me interested/engaged, AND food offerings.

My instructions were to meet the group at the “I Have A Dream“ mural in Newtown, which was easy enough for me to find. Once I got there, I quickly identified others with the same lost expression and knew I’d found my tribe, lol. Shortly thereafter, Daniel appeared, introduced himself, and herded us around the corner to one of the most beautiful murals I’ve ever seen.

From there we had an icebreaker where we each introduced ourselves, then we were off. We walked a bit with Daniel pointing out art and historical references along the way until we arrived at the first food venue which served meat pies. I shared a beef pie with another tour person and it was AMAZING.

And so it was like this the rest of the tour. We saw amazing murals and learned of Newtown history in between walking to the other food venues. We stopped at an Egyptian place that served falafel balls that were to die for. Next was a vegan taco place where I had the best tacos in my life, EVER. No joke. And lets not forget the Turkish ice cream place, where it was so hard to choose between delicious flavors.

We ended the tour at Young Henry’s, which is a super cool brewery with all kinds of crazy murals and tchotchkes.

Daniel was a good spirited and knowledgeable guide. I enjoyed his guidance and energy. Overall, I was very happy with my Local Sauce experience and definitely recommend it for natives and travelers.

We did the Chinatown walking food tour with Justin. We booked directly with the company as it was a better deal than booking through a 3rd party website. We really enjoyed the tour - we tried several snacks in Chinatown from restaurants we would not have found on our own. The food was wonderful, and Justin was informative and entertaining as he shared the history of Chinatown. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour! I wish we had done the tour earlier in our trip so we had more time to explore Justin's list of recommended reatarants. Highly recommend!

Thank you, Justin, for letting me join the tour even though I was the only person who registered that day. And thank you to Daniel for being a great tour guide! I gained so much insight that helped me see Sydney in a deeper way. I really loved the locations and the stories. Hope to walk around Oz with you guys again sometime!

Steve was amazing. The tour was very well-paced and easy. The history of Sydney was delivered in humorous way. If history lessons were taught by Steve, I am sure I would’ve passed 🤣. The tour is definitely a 10/10 and Steve is for sure 100/10 good vibes only 🫶🏼

Such a great night. Small group, big fun.
We were only two guests plus our guide, but he really made an effort and created a fantastic experience. I had the best time ever. Delicious drinks, super cool locations, and a fun mix of street art and local history along the way. What’s not to love?
Highly recommend if you’re looking for a unique and memorable night out in Sydney.
