Explore Melbourne's selected hidden laneways, arcades and alleys and discover the fantastic stories behind them
Choose from three tours, all led by first aid accredited tour guides:
See where Melbourne was first established with the West Tour. Nicknamed the "banks and bullion tour", discover some of Melbourne's hidden laneways, arcades, and old banks built in 19th century boom times
Try going on the "prostitutes and parliament" trail with the East Tour, conducted through what was the newer and less expensive side of Hoddle's city grid in the 1840s, including Little Lon - the former infamous red light district
Discover where law was practiced in Melbourne - from mud shacks to the supreme court on the "criminals and counsellors" North Tour. Admire some of the oldest buildings in Melbourne and the stunning dome of the State Library

Would highly recommend Meltours City Laneway walking tour. This tour was well worth doing. I discovered areas of the CBD that I had walked around the day before yet completely missed."TripAdvisor
We have now completed four tours with you, (North, East & West, and this week, the Laneways) and found them most informative and enjoyable. We have learnt so much about the history of Melbourne and been privileged to enter many buildings we previously were not aware of, allowing us to further appreciate the wonderful architecture and decoration from earlier Melbourne days."TripAdvisor
We had a very interesting couple of hours on the East History and Laneways Tour of Melbourne. Having lived in Melbourne all our lives and frequenting the city quite often we saw it in a different light on this tour."TripAdvisor
"The guide, Jerome was knowledgeable about the buildings of architectural interest and opened our eyes to a side of Melbourne we didnt know existed in the back alley and laneways of the "Court District". The tour was well run and interesting and really enjoyable. A must do for anyone visiting Melbourne. I hope to get on some of the other tours soon."TripAdvisor
