About this tour

We will guide you through Melbourne's contemporary art world from the commercial to the underground. Tours begin at the iconic Nicholas building in the CBD then continue to Fitzroy and Collingwood via tram. The rest of the tour will be on foot to visit a number of galleries while also stopping at sites of historical significance.

At each gallery we will spend time looking at and talking about the work. You will be introduced to a simple method of art analysis that we will use as a group to talk about what we're looking at. There is no pressure to join the larger group discussion, your host will ensure that you gain confidence in talking about art.

If you're interested in art and the cultural history of the city then this is the tour for you! Even if you've only visited a few galleries in your life you will leave the tour with the confidence of a critic.

You will also receive a suite of recommendations from a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.

Melbourne Food Tour through Chinatown and Laneways with Drink

Melbourne, Victoria

Most food tours hand you a printed menu and walk you through the same venues every time. This one doesn't. Your guide meets you at Gordon Reserve at 11am, learns what your group eats and what you don't, then builds the route from there. Four to six substantial tastings across Chinatown and Melbourne's laneways, chosen around what's seasonal and worth your time. The venues shift, but the format stays consistent: hand-folded dumplings, Michelin-starred yum cha, regional Chinese street food, oysters, soft cheeses, Indian dhai puri, and one drink at a top-tier laneway bar or cellar door. Non-alcoholic options available. Groups are capped at eight, giving your guide time for questions and the stories behind each stop, including how immigration and laneways shaped Melbourne into a food capital. This is built to be your lunch, so come hungry. We accommodate vegetarians and religious dietary requirements. Built for adventurous eaters. Wear comfortable shoes for two to three kilometres.
