San was a fantastic guide and we got personalised attention being only four of us. Learned so many things and discovered many new places we would have never come across on our own.

This was a great tour!. San was an excellent guide and we feel like we got a good flavor of Melbourne. We went to St Pauls cathedral, and several of the arcades in town. San knew all the history and great stories about each place. We loved the graffiti streets and San took us to several different places and explained a lot of what we were seeing to us. We highly recommend this tour.

What a great day we had with our tour leader Cathy. Her knowledge of Melbourne was fantastic & provided us with a good background for what we saw. An easy 3hr walking tour which everyone enjoyed. Recommend this tour to all ages & give Cathy a gold star for being our tour leader 👍😉😘

Having visited Melbourne on several previous occasions, this was a great way of doing more than just reading information or wandering aimlessly through. Rob, our guide, brought the story of the evolution of Melbourne's history from its early settlement through to the current use as a city. He clearly has a great knowledge of building materials, dates and styles. His enthusiasm about the cultural change that has influenced the society that used the laneways and the development of the cafe culture is infectious. Well worth the three hour walk.

Brilliant tour with Cathy. Have been to Melbourne many times & to some of the laneways we visited but we saw and learnt lots of new things. Cathy had an amazing knowledge of the city, its history & the quirky nooks to visit. Definitely worth doing this tour.

What a fabulous tour! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we saw so much more than just the laneways. Highly recommended.

Kathy was a fantastic tour guide! We got to see a variety of sights and landmarks around Melbourne including artistic laneways and some arcades (shopping areas). We really enjoyed walking around the city and learning from her. The stop for a coffee at Brunetti was delicious. Kathy explained the history of many of the places we saw and told us some interesting stories. The small size of the group was ideal. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Kathy! It is a great introduction to Melbourne.

Kate from Meltours (I believe that was her name) and the whole tour was excellent. The guide was knowledgeable and engaging. We were fortunate to end up with a private tour so we had her full attention. Kate took us to hidden arcades that we would have never seen if not with her. She had a love and pride of the city, it was obvious and made the experience that much more engaging. A definite must do when in Melbourne.
