Loved this walking tour . We found out so much about the street art and music culture of Melbourne along with the history and architecture highlights . Our tour guide Harriet was so easy to listen to and chat with . Her knowledge of the area was exceptional . The hot chocolate break was perfectly placed in the middle of the walk. The walk was easy and we clocked around 6 km over the three hours .

melbourne is my favourite city, and this tour shows exactly why. i went on this tour 15 years ago and we saw shops and secret alleys and street art, they’ve just returned now we are out of lockdown and they showed the best restaurants, street art, MORE secret alleys i never knew about, and the history of the city... you didn’t even notice the shops weren’t open, most of the cafes are, and places like CRAFT victoria are real gems you can discover through wandering these streets and laneways. this is how even a melbourner can rediscover the best of their city.

A very fine tour, where our guide, Nicole, opened Melbourne for us and showed us to great spots and places of interest. Accompagnied with very relevant and interesting informations about both the history of Melbourne and and all the places we were shown. We would never have foundation the Hidden Lanes and Archades on our own!! Very much recommendable!

My friend and I had the luxury of being guided by Charley, who proved to be personable, kind, and extremely knowedable of local history. We were lucky to be the entire "group" so we felt we had a personal guided tour. And the coffee/chocolate break included in the tour was a most welcome treat, indeed! It was most worthwhile!

After a long flight from the USA ... and checking into a hotel . You wonder what made you think of taking a 3 hour walking tour... Well this was the best decision .... Lara was our guide and was on time and gathered the small group . Laid out what was a head for our tour ! Well , the history of Melbourne and the Arcades and all the local stops made this memorable. The stop for coffee in a local shop filled with history was the perfect midway to help us be reenergized. Lara provided tips for the balance of our trip in Melbourne which helped us to maximize our time in this amaizing city. Thank you!

Jess was a good guide but the pace of this tour was a little slow for us. We wish we had covered a bit more ground. A number of things that were pointed out as world famous we had never heard of before and we have travelled quite a bit. I admire Jess's devotion to her home city and there is a lot to love about Melbourne but it was a bit over the top for us. A few more funny stories would have helped to pass the time.

This tour was perfect for our first day in Melbourne to get a sense of the hidden gems in this city. Lara did a truly wonderful job. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, gave excellent suggestions, and went out of her way to give recommendations for each couple on the tour based on theirs interests. Great start to our visit to Melbourne. Thanks, Lara!!!

Charlie was a wiz in leading our tour. Mixed audience from Melbourne and interstate/NZ really appreciated the whole tour. As a local, I learned so much and loved every minute. The werewolf beer at the pub I’ll possibly never find again was great. Highly recommended. Oh yes, the weather was truly Melbourne, variable.
