Depot Adventures - Melbourne Walking Tours

DO THIS TOUR AS SOON AS YOU HIT MELBOURNE! What a fantastic way to get to see Melbourne by foot and get ideas for what to explore in more detail later. Our guide, Ian, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. I wish we had time to do the other tours too, but we must be on our way. Thank you Ian. Diane & Scarlet xx

I started with the bar tour, with Emily. Amazing experience. She's extremely knowledgeable about Melbourne - of course, a natives - and passionate about rhe history and culture of the city. This is not a tour; this is a history and culture class. Also, a great opportunity to make new friend, and try a few drinks not found anywhere else. I strongly recommend it if you are into culture, beers, and drinks. Then 2 days later I did the complete tour, focused on the history, and I got what I wanted: 3 hours of an immersion into the Melbournian history, visiting great locations, learning about the best spots. Should you do both? Yes, for sure! Two totally different experiences!

Our tour guide (Emily) has lived in Melbourne all her life and used her knowledge, charm and humour to bring her home town to life. Her tour of the State Library and explanation of the Ned Kelly's history were particularly well presented and interesting. Those of us on the tour that day now understand that Melbourne has so much more to offer than Sydney. Thank you, Emily.

Sun 28 Sept 2025 completed the Melbourne Walking Tour with Emily. It was a great three hours with the small group, and Emily was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide who clearly showed how passionate she is about her home town. We got to see and experience some very pertinent places that shaped Melbourne's history. Fair bit of walking at a steady pace, so wear comfy shoes, but I would definitely recommend this tour for sure!

Hugo runs interesting tours in the city. I just did a hidden bar tour and was introduced to a couple of new bars which I will revisit. His tours are great to do with a bunch of friends and enjoy shared local information whilst walking between the bars.

What a way to see some of the hidden gems, Melbournes lane ways have to offer. Every bar we went too was intriguing and had a drink for every taste. Ian our tour guide was full of knowledge on drinks & the history of Melbourne. Clearly loves his job and we would recommend this tour to everyone! We had a ball. Cheers!

Ian was so knowledgeable and welcoming to us all. The tour was more than we expected and was catered to everyone’s interests, so every tour would be different every time. The group numbers were only small which enhanced the experience for all involved. We especially enjoyed sharing a drink and meal at the end with our fellow explorers. Thanks to all.

Emily was a wonderful tour guide. The tour was super interesting and I'm happy I went, I don't think I would have seen as much or as easily if I'd tried to do it myself! Thank you for a lovely time!
