What to expect
You'll walk at a gentle pace between three award-winning venues, stopping to taste dishes that rotate seasonally but centre on local bounty: native spices, tropical fruits, seafood, and game meat prepared with finesse. Your guide shares stories of Darwin's bombing raids, multicultural communities, and how Aboriginal ingredients shaped the regional kitchen. Between tastings, you'll encounter large-scale street murals; some reveal hidden layers when viewed through the AR app on your phone. Dietary requirements are accommodated with advance notice. The tour wraps with something sweet and tropical to finish.

Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring sunscreen; the pace is leisurely but you'll be outdoors.
