If you love coffee I would definitely recommend going on this tour and also make sure not to have any coffee before the tour, you will have plenty over the tour. I really enjoyed this tour and Monique our guide was excellent, not only did she provide great information on all facets of coffee, she also provided some history on Melbourne. We tried a good selection of coffee from brewing styles to countries of origin, I even tried bubble coffee at one cafe, which was interesting.

We went on the Melbourne Coffee Lovers Walking Tour with the lovely Monique! We had a fantastic time walking through the CBD while we learned about (and tasted) the history of Melbourne’s coffee scene. Monique was an amazing guide, she is so friendly and clearly finds so much joy sharing her own love of coffee and Melbourne! Would highly recommend to long time coffee lovers, as well as newbies to coffee (like myself!).
