How Do Our Tours Work?

Classier Than A Bar Crawl
No watered down shots. No drunken teenage backpackers. Think of us as the bar tour that grew up, got a haircut and studied history at university.

A fun way to learn about Melbourne If you’re looking for something different to do in Melbourne this tour is a great idea. It was a fun way to learn about the city’s history.
The host, Maria, was very engaging, energetic and friendly.
It was a good way to get to know some of the bars and nightlife around the city. Maria had a good knowledge of things to do around melbourne and had many other interesting tidbits to share.read moreread lessMia N17/05/25 -

Bridget is the best. Visit the most interesting places. Bridget was the best guide - funny, knowledgable, and able to connect with everyone.
The tour was great - we were able to go to varied venues and speak to the owners and/or bartenders and learn about their different concepts.read moreread lessJane K27/04/25 -
Amazing tour Did the creepy tales and drinking tour whilst on a holiday in Melbourne. Brigette our tour guide was funny, engaging and knowledgeable about the history of Melbourne as well as the bars that we visited. It was great to hear about parts of Melbourne history that people don’t often talk about.
Highly recommend to anyone in Melbourneread moreread lessLizzie N23/04/25 -
Creepy in the funniest possible way! Our very knowledgeable and funny tour guide, Brigette, kept us thoroughly entertained for the entire tour. I now know so much creepy, gruesome stuff about Melbourne’s history and enjoyed some delicious cocktails on the way. Thank you Brigette for an amazing evening.
