Auckland Tastebud Tour

Join The Big Foody Food Tours for a fabulous morning of discovery around Auckland.

This tour is a fantastic introduction to Auckland's incredible food scene where you will visit hidden foody treasures, meet local producers and taste delicious delights and fresh New Zealand seafood.

Auckland is a multicultural, exciting city with a fantastic collection of award winning restaurants and cafes. Our passionate guides will share with you our top dining tips, Auckland history, architecture and more.

The Tastebud Tour takes you around the city centre and out to the suburbs where we find flavour by visiting local producers, farmers markets (if it's in the weekend), café’s, restaurants, speciality shops and much more. You’ll soak in our guide’s knowledge along the way as well as giving your taste buds a great workout, finishing off with a light lunch.

Our experienced, passionate and fun tour guides will give you a day you will thoroughly enjoy! The Tour is driven (so you can sit back and relax) and for 4 hours includes a number of sites, as well as lots of tastes, flavours and experiences you will talk about again and again.

Perfect for people who are visiting and new residents to Auckland City.

Here is what some of our visitors have said in the past.
“I wish we had done this tour when we first came to Auckland. I would have known so much more of what to expect and look for in the rest of New Zealand. The Tastebud tour is not only about the food, it’s about the people, the places and the sites - it’s a must in Auckland!” - Gloria G USA

"I have been travelling to Auckland regularly for work and wanted to see more than the airport and motel and Elle's tour certainly gave me a lot more avenues to explore when I am next in town. This lady knows her food, restaurants and shops, with great (friendly) advice and a tour that covered local markets through to specialty shops it was a day to remember!" - Lynelle Sydney
