Visite des coulisses du marché aux poissons de Sydney

Dan took us on a wonderful informative tour of behind the scenes at the fish market. He was extremely knowledgeable and passionately gave us a good understanding of everything from catching the fish, the boats, the auction floor and processes involved in getting them to market. He showed us a tank of 10kg Tasmanian crabs, crayfish and a variety of fish from small whiting to tuna and marlin.

I would tell anyone who travels to Sydney that this is a must-tour. We learned so many fascinating facts about the fishing industry, and our guides were super knowledgeable and friendly. It was so fun to learn about the fish auction, and to see some of it live. You also get to see so many different fish species up close. I know it’s a pain to get up so early in the morning, but trust us, it is worth it. And don’t worry, there is a coffee stop on the tour! The building itself is gorgeous, and after the tour, there are so many kiosks to choose from for brunch. (If you like sushi/sashimi or oysters, this is the place to be!)

Amazing insight into the fishing industry and different species of fish really good guide

One word WOW! Our tour with guide Dan was absolutely incredible. Right from the moment we booked to the time we left the whole journey felt like we were part of the family. The atmosphere of the workers salesman and fisherman was something truely special and you should all be grateful for. The wealth of knowledge from Dan about every species of fish was absolutely incredible. The way you get to see every stage of the marketing process from the fisherman on the boat till the moment it leaves in a truck it is something everyone needs to see. Hands down one of the best tours / experiences we have had in Sydney and will definitely recommend to anyone travelling here

We had an incredible behind-the-scenes tour of the Sydney Fish Market with Mike. His passion for seafood, the industry, and the market itself really shone through from start to finish. Mike’s knowledge was outstanding, and the way he carried himself throughout the tour made the experience both engaging and enjoyable. Everyone in the group certainly walked away having learned something new. A fantastic tour and highly recommended!

Roger, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, personable and enthusiastic. Tbh I was in two minds about the tour, but I enjoyed it so much! He imparted his wealth of knowledge in the most tireless and cheerful fashion. It was so interesting and entertaining. Thanks Roger.

Very enjoyable two hours going behind the scenes at the Sydney Fish Market viewing the Dutch auction system in action, retail operations, logistics, fishing fleet etc. Very informative guide with details on fish species together with cooking tips. Early start at 6am but there are other times available during the day. Highly recommended.

Excellent behind the scenes tour. Our guide, Dan, was enthusiastic about the market and his knowledge of the fish impressive. We got to see the auction, the stores, the Wheelers moving the boxes of fish around, the fishing trawlers and we were lucky enough to see this huge tuna that came in that morning. This trip was worth every penny and would definitely recommend.

What a fantastic tour of the workings of the Sydney fish markets! So interesting to watch the auctions and then the entire process of how the fish end up in the local (or international) fish shops! We were lucky enough to see the excitement amongst all of the workers when a 188kg blue fin tuna was actioned and subsequently displayed for public viewing today.

Fantastic educational piece on market operations and controls, food handling , fish types and the sea to shop front process Our guide Dan was epic , a promoters dream, full of knowledge and insights to every part of the fishing industry and all our questions too.
