A must do for history buffs and a wonderful way to orientate yourself around important historical points of the city centre. Learn about the region’s ‘golden’ history and heritage particularly the first 100 years of Melbourne.

Take a sneak peek inside elegant gothic interiors, plush European style lobby areas as you gain a sensory understanding of this time of the 1800’s and how modern Melbourne has evolved since then. Witness concepts of early European settlement, learn of the various immigrant groups who came for adventure, the promise of gold, and wonder at the impressive architecture that is still relevant today. The boom and bust of Marvelous Melbourne is a global story. This guided walking tour, with a drink stop mid-way, will share some of the lesser-known stories and take you inside historic buildings of this dynamic city.
