Meet your guide in the bustling Federation Square which celebrates both the uniting of six British colonies in 1901 and the Kulin Nation of the First People. See the colonial legacy of the English, Scottish, and Irish settlers and hear the stories of how they came to settle in Melbourne.

Next, head to Spring Street, the central spine of the administration of the Government of Victoria, which is home to many of the state's major cultural institutions, such the State Houses of Parliament and the Old Treasure Building.

Pass through the Royal Exhibition Building and dive into some of Melbourne’s 200 narrow lanes and pathways, where every lane tells an important storey about Melbourne today and of its past. Soak up these fun and eclectic spaces and learn how these lanes helped to shape the ‘People’s Melbourne.’

Visit the largest open-air market in the Southern Hemisphere, the famous Victoria Market. Have some time to explore the stalls with locally-produced items and stumble on to a bargain.

Stroll by restaurants, Asian supermarkets, Chinese medicine shops, and boutiques in Chinatown. Take the time to peruse items from around the world before returning to your meeting point at the end of your tour.
