Loved this walking tour... - Loved this walking tour of Melbourne. The tour guide took us on a tailored trail route through lanes and alleyways whilst educating us about Melbourne's history and interesting facts. We stopped for delicious treats and amazing street art along the way.

Walking tour a must with Tristan - Tristan was amazing and so knowledgeable on the history of Melbourne. We toured different streets and buildings. Took us to places that we wouldn’t have ventured on our own. The sky deck is worth doing as long as the weather is nice.

A must must-do activity in Melbourne, if it’s your first time. - The most memorable activity during my holiday trip to Melbourne was the Sites and Bites tour. It was my first time there, and I needed this kind of tour. My guide, Tristan, served as my guide, photographer, and storyteller.
Thanks Tristan

Amazing tour of Melbourne - Tristan was an excellent guide! He took me up the Eureka Skydeck and told me lots of interesting facts about the history of the building as well as the city. He then took me around Melbourne city to local coffee shops and gave me a wonderful insight into Melbourne life.

Great way to see things you might otherwise miss! - Kellie is an EXCELLENT guide! Pleasant, friendly and very knowledgeable! I love the small group and the opportunities to let the group make decisions about where to go. I had never done a walking tour in any of my travels in the past but I will certainly do them any time I am in a new place, especially with Urban Adventures! It's a great way not only to learn from a local but to see things that would not otherwise be apparent.
