This Melbourne Laneway Tour begins in the city centre at St Paul’s Cathedral, where you’ll meet your friendly local guide and the rest of your small group. No two tours are ever the same, but you’ll start by exploring the alleys that branch off into the CBD. They harbour a wealth of incredible street art. View the latest works and perhaps see artists in action.
From there, your guide will lead you around the city’s famous network of laneways and arcades, providing commentary on the architecture and cultural make-up of the CBD as you go. You’ll discover countless quirky cafes, secret shops and tiny galleries, and see parts of the city that many tourists miss. It’s worth having a notebook or your phone handy to jot down the bar and restaurant recommendations that you’ll receive from your guide along the way.
Towards the end of this Melbourne Laneway Tour you’ll have the opportunity to sample a delicious macaron at one of the city’s best patisseries, and then wrap up the experience with a coffee, tea or hot chocolate at a top laneway cafe.
This Melbourne Laneway Tour is a great way to get a feel for the ‘real’ Melbourne — both the old and the new. Enjoy!
