Sydney's only tour company dedicated exclusively TO native Australian ingredients.
Most travellers leave Australia saying, “I came all the way to Oz but never got to try real Australian food.” Unlike countries such as Italy or Japan, authentic Australian cuisine is hard to find and even harder to experience properly without the hefty price tag. We change that.
Our mission is to make bush tucker accessible through immersive food experiences that spotlight rare native ingredients and the modern producers shaping Australia’s food future. We partner with premium Inbound Tour Operators, Destination Management Companies, and cruise agencies to deliver trade-ready, commissionable experiences so your guests never travel thousands of miles only to miss out on authentic Australian native food.
Join one of our Sydney food tours today. Whether you’re a curious traveller or a seasoned foodie, our experiences are among the most authentic, memorable, and Instagram-worthy things to do in Sydney.
About us
Founded by Dave, an accountant who spent 20+ years in boardrooms before deciding life was too short for bland lunches and boring meetings.
Frustrated by how hard it was for visitors to experience authentic Australian food, he created something refreshingly different. Today, The Australian Food Guy offers unique tours, award-winning hampers and catering that celebrate bush tucker and the bold producers shaping Australia's food future.
Proudly partnered with ATEC and Destination NSW, we’re the only food experience in Sydney offering a turnkey, native-first approach. Made for discerning travellers and adventurous food lovers alike.

You Can’t Visit Australia Without Tasting Native Australian Food
When most travellers think of Australian cuisine, they picture meat pies, barbecues, or flat whites. But the real flavour of Australia lies in its native ingredients, bush tomatoes, lemon myrtle, wattleseed and finger limes. These unique, nutrient-rich foods have been part of our culture for tens of thousands of years and tell the story of this land better than any imported dish ever could.
If you're visiting Sydney, don’t settle for the standard tourist fare. There’s a world of flavour waiting beyond the cafés and pubs. Our native Australian food tours offer exclusive access to local producers, wild ingredients, and Indigenous culinary traditions, giving you a deeper connection to Country through taste. It’s not just a meal ,it’s a cultural immersion.
Trying bush tucker in Australia is like trying sushi in Japan or pasta in Italy, it’s an essential experience. Whether you’re sipping native-infused cocktails, foraging in the Botanic Gardens, or sampling smoked kangaroo and finger lime oysters, these are once-in-a-lifetime flavours you simply won’t find anywhere else in the world.
So if you’re looking for authentic things to do in Sydney, make sure native Australian food is at the top of your list.
