This charming and popular eatery blends Peranakan flavors with modern flair, offering a taste of heritage in every bite.
Enjoy an evening stroll along the scenic Melaka River as your guide shares captivating stories of the city’s legends. Along the way, discover Malaysia’s oldest functioning mosque built in 1728, learn about the national flower, and see the contrast between the new town and old town, before ending with a glimpse of a well-preserved traditional village in the heart of Melaka.
Jambatan Pasar Melaka, or Melaka Market Bridge, is one of the city’s oldest and most iconic bridges, connecting the historic quarters along the Melaka River near Jonker Street. Once a bustling crossing point for traders heading to the old market, the bridge has witnessed centuries of cultural exchange between Malay, Chinese, Indian, and European communities. Today, it stands as a charming reminder of Melaka’s trading past, offering picturesque views of the riverbanks lined with heritage shophouses, cafes, and murals. Especially beautiful at night when illuminated, the bridge symbolizes the timeless charm and vibrant history of this UNESCO World Heritage city.
Enjoy a pleasant guided walk along the serene riverside, where every step reveals a story.
Enter the grounds of Kampong Morten, the oldest yet most well preserved kampung or village in Melaka. It's a living heritage. We’ll stop by a local restaurant to savor one of Malaysia’s most beloved dishes—satay, skewers of marinated meat grilled to perfection and served with a flavorful peanut sauce. To complete the experience, we’ll also enjoy a traditional Malay dessert along with a refreshing local drink, giving you a delicious taste of authentic Malay cuisine.
Villa Sentosa in Melaka is a beautifully preserved traditional Malay village house that offers a glimpse into the lifestyle and heritage of a local family from the early 20th century.
Jalan Bunga Raya Pantai is one of Melaka’s older streets, once known as a lively hub for traders and local businesses near the river. Steeped in history, the area reflects the city’s multicultural roots, where Chinese, Malay, and Indian communities lived and worked side by side. Today, it remains a bustling stretch filled with eateries and local shops. Here, we’ll take a break to sample some authentic Indian flavors, including a plate of delicious mee goreng, a classic stir-fried noodle dish that showcases Melaka’s diverse culinary heritage.
Longkang Siham, literally meaning “clam by the drain,” is a famous local food spot in Melaka with a history of serving fresh shellfish and street snacks for decades. Popular among both locals and adventurous visitors, this humble open-air eatery captures the city’s old-school charm. Here, we’ll try two local favorites—grilled sotong bakar with its smoky aroma and spicy dipping sauce, as well as the refreshing, tangy-sweet rojak, a fruit and vegetable salad that perfectly balances flavors.
Story about Lorong Jambatan. Wrap up the night on the Tipsy Bridge, where lights reflect on the water and laughter lingers in the warm Melakan breeze.

5Fantastic Tour
Enjoyed a wonderful evening with John, who freely shared his knowledge of all things food and so much more 😊. We ate a great selection of local specialties in interesting locations. Great tour for anyone looking for authentic cuisine away from the well known tourist spots. Highly recommend this tour.

5Nice food tour with guide An Nisa.
Our guide An Nisa was kind, knowledgeable and took time to tell us the history of Melaka, the cultures, and the foods. Enjoy Malay, Chinese, and Indian foods. The UNESCO neighborhood is very pretty at night too.
5An excellent introduction to the culture of Melaka
We had such a wonderful experience with John! He is so knowledgeable about the history of Melaka and what life is like now. All of the food was unique and something we wouldn’t have found by ourselves - and it was all so good! The walk along the river was also so beautiful. It’s a perfect way to get acclimated to the city. Highly recommend!

About Melaka
Melaka is a historic Malaysian port on the Strait of Malacca, with Portuguese and Dutch landmarks, a river lined with shophouses and Peranakan food.
Melaka was a great trading port of the fifteenth century, then a Portuguese, Dutch and British possession, and its historic centre, listed by UNESCO with George Town, still bears all of those layers. The red Stadthuys, a Dutch town hall, and Christ Church stand around a square, and the ruined church of St Paul crowns the hill above, near the gateway of A Famosa, the old Portuguese fort. The Melaka River, lined with old shophouses and murals, runs through the centre.
Top-ranked sights in Melaka: Jonker Street (Jalan Hang Jebat), Malacca River (Sungai Melaka), Cheng Hoon Teng Temple.
