Our tour guide Beau was very friendly and talkative, and explained a lot about Melbourne's history, such as the gold rush in the 18th century, the architectural history of Melbourne, etc. Beau also took us to taste Melbourne's coffee and drink beer in a bar! This was a very local tour~

It’s a really great tour!! I learned so much about Melbourne history in this tour. There’s not a second that I felt bored because the stories that tour guide shared with us were so fascinating!! I highly recommend this tour to anyone who visits Melbourne especially if you only have a few days in the city, this tour will give you a very comprehensive view of Melbourne ! ☺️

The tour is highly recommended with Emily as the guide. She is extremely knowledgeable about the Australian history and in particular about Melbourne. The tour takes you through all important places in Melbourne which you might miss otherwise if travelling on your own. Recommend you do this walking tour immediately upon your arrival in Melbourne.

Amazing tour guide, Mike was very knowledgeable about Melbourne’s history. Group of 12 people and was able to meet new and amazing people. Walking tour covers a lot of places. My favourite is the Melbourne’s Street Art and Melbourne’s Magic Coffee. Worth booking!

This is must-do tour for anybody who wants to know the city's history and contemporary life. Our guide took us as well to some of the secret alleyways and bars that were not really in the itinerary. The street art scene is very much alive and is another must-see.

The 3-hour walking tour in Melbourne is a good learning experience for first timers like us. My son and I were grateful that Alex, our tour guide, brought us to significant places, which we could not have visited if we toured the city just on our own. Alex even treated our group to his favorite coffee shop, for us to try one of the best blended coffee in town. And we ended up our day tour at Capt Melville Restaurant, the oldest continuing restaurant since 1800’s with delicious food served hot and yummy, of course with another round of free beer/wine/soft drink from Alex. Thank you and more power to you!!! -Zeny-
