About this event

A great guide is worth their weight in gold!

Many of us book a tour guide when visiting somewhere new. But have you ever considered the value of a tour guide to rediscover your own city or region?

To celebrate International Tourist Guide Day on 21 February 2021, professional guides accredited with the Professional Tour Guide Association of Australia are offering FREE 1 HOUR WALKING TOURS of Melbourne.

Choose from 3 tour itineraries. Each tour offers different perspectives of the waterfront, laneways or significant buildings. Your FREE TOUR GUIDE will bring to life the people, events and places that have contributed to Melbourne's story. See below for an example itinerary, although this may vary according to each guide's expertise and area of interest. You can expect to walk 2km on smooth paths.

Tour 1 Riverfront

  • Tour begins at Fed Square - Swanston Street Forecourt
  • Understand references to the culture of our First Nations' Wurrundjeri people pre-colonisation
  • Wander through our world-class Arts precinct
  • Discover the importance of the Yarra River to the early British and European settlers
  • As we cross the river, appreciate the significance of bridges that seamlessly connect the CBD and Southbank
  • Peel back the layers of time and development to find older low rise buildings among the modern skyscrapers
  • Find the best photo spots to capture Melbourne's skyline and points of interest
  • Includes recommendations for great places to eat and drink and things to do on your own
  • Tour concludes at Fed Square

COVID Safety - Tours will operate according to a COVIDSafe Event Checklist, including 1.5m social distancing, appropriate hand hygiene, maximum 10 participants per tour and contact tracing.
