Detours. A French expat’s insider's guide to exclusive food, chocolate and travel experiences in Sydney, Australia.

Introducing Mytinerary's deluxe chocolate tours in Sydney!

Hungry for off-the-beaten track foodie experiences to spice up your weekend? Chocoholics, rejoice! 

Join me on one of Mytinerary's brand-new chocolate tours, showcasing some of Sydney's most talented chocolate artisans. Just visit our events page to make a booking.

The half-day tours will include visits to four different chocolate hotspots, complimentary chocolate tastings, a meet & greet with the artisans and a light lunch (or late afternoon nibbles) with a glass of wine and chocolate treat.

As a Parisian born and bred, I’ve been addicted to (good) chocolate for as long as I can remember. The Carrie Bradshaw’s of the world love their Manolo’s, Louboutin’s and Jimmy Choo’s – I worship Pierre Hermé, Ladurée and Valrhona!

When I first arrived to Sydney almost four years ago, I was a bit concerned about the quality of chocolate I’d be finding here. Well. little did I expect what I found! There are some truly amazing chocolate artisans in Sydney and New South Wales, and I wanted to share with like-minded foodies some of the city’s lesser-known chocolate secrets - hence these exciting chocolate tours.

The small-group tours will give participants a unique insight into each artisan’s philosophy, product range and diverse culinary background. Watch out for Sydney's new generation of chocolatier extraordinaires!

Mytinerary is open for business!

Drum roll, please.... Yeayy!! Mytinerary is up and running! My career-change project has been quite long in the making, but it's been well worth the wait. Last week I conducted my very first private guided tours around Sydney, and when I saw how happy my clients were at the end of the day, how I had contributed to creating very special memories for them, I knew I was right all along in pursuing that dream of mine.

Are you visiting Sydney for the first time and want to see the best of what the city has to offer, but recoil at the thought of being herded around in a minibus? You've already seen all the Sydney icons and want to experience something different and "live like the locals" for a day? Are you hungry and ready to hit the Sydney foodie trail? Do you have friends or family visiting you for a couple of days and you're running out of ideas on what they could do while you're busy at work? Do you feel like re-discovering your own backyard and enjoying a very special day with your loved ones without the hassle of having to organise everything yourself?

Then Mytinerary is for you! Our private tours are custom made for YOU, based on what YOU like and what YOU want to discover. Think of "haute couture", but for travel!
