Abandon your usual history textbooks and dull travel guides, let us reveal the true personalities and undisclosed history of Melbourne (including one or two hidden bars!) that have shaped the magnificent city that Melbourne is today. Explore the city’s unparalleled bar culture with a local guide and enjoy a drink at three incredible bars. By the conclusion of this tour, you’ll realise that history is indeed more enjoyable with a drink in hand (just in case you had any doubts)!

Since everyone’s taste in drinks and their capacity to handle alcohol varies, we keep our tour price minimal and give you the freedom to buy your own drinks. Most places accept debit cards, although some places might have a minimum spend. If you wish to bypass this, it might be a good idea to carry cash.

• This tour is priced for a minimum group size of two travellers. A solo traveller may still book this private experience but will be charged the base rate for two travellers.
• Most establishments accept bank cards, but there is occasionally a minimum spend. You may wish to bring cash if you want to avoid this.
• Melbourne is known to have four seasons in one day – please check the weather report and dress accordingly!
• Travellers under 18 years of age are not permitted to join this tour.
• While we strongly recommend that all travellers are vaccinated against COVID-19 to reduce the risk of transmission and avoid putting undue strain on healthcare services, vaccinations are not a requirement to join an Intrepid Urban Adventures tour.
• Because everyone’s drinking preferences and tolerances are different, rather than include drinks, we keep our tour price low and allow you to purchase drinks as you go. Most establishments accept bank cards, but there is occasionally a minimum spend. You may wish to bring cash if you want to avoid this.
