The Queen Victoria is an experience not to be missed. My guide aided my learning of spices, cheese, honey and various breads. My market personal were interesting and friendly. Food tasting and wine tasting exceptional!

The best selection of cheese even right at Melbourne Victoria Market. Our guide Tamara was really friendly. She also recommended us nice cafe that we can visit at our own time.
