What are the best tours in Melbourne?

Are guided tours in Melbourne worth it?

Yes, guided tours in Melbourne are absolutely worth it. Local guides share insider tips on the city's famous laneways, street art, and coffee culture, which you'd likely miss exploring solo. Walking and bike tours cover a lot of ground in the city, while full-day trips handle all transportation to nearby attractions. Guided experiences help you make the most of your Melbourne visit, whether you book food tours with market visits, helicopter rides, or art tours.

Per one customer who booked the Ultimate Melbourne Walking Tour: History, Laneways, & Culture, "Beau took excellent care of our small group while providing a witty commentary that included historical as well as current facts about Melbourne. We saw so many cool corners of the city that we would have never discovered on our own. I highly recommend this tour!"

How much do Melbourne tours cost?

Melbourne tours vary in price, depending on the type of experience and inclusions. You can book self-guided audio tours from as little as US$6, while guided walking tours of the city's laneways and attractions typically cost from US$60 per person. Full-day excursions to nearby regions, such as the Great Ocean Road or Phillip Island, start from around US$90. Private tours, helicopter rides, and multi-day experiences cost significantly more.

For an affordable option, try the Shrine of Remembrance Cultural Guided Tour in Melbourne for around US$14 per person, which is a 45-minute guided experience of one of the city's most significant landmarks. At the higher end, the 4-Hour Private Tour of Melbourne's Iconic Highlights with Guide (from US$1,056 per group) offers a fully personalized itinerary with a private driver-guide. It is ideal for groups wanting a tailored experience, and covers major sights, such as Flinders Street Station, Brighton Bathing Boxes, and Hosier Lane.

What activities are included on Melbourne tours?

Melbourne tours offer something for everyone: explore the city's famous laneways and street art, sample local food and coffee on culinary tours, or cycle through the city's parks and neighborhoods. You can also visit landmarks like the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and Federation Square, kayak the nearby Yarra River, discover hidden bars, or join walking tours through the city's cultural hotspots.

Consider an all-day or multi-day tour to pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, the Full-Day Melbourne City Sightseeing with Penguin Parade tour combines Melbourne's highlights, including Hosier Lane's street art, the Shrine of Remembrance, and Fitzroy Gardens, with a trip to Phillip Island to see its penguins waddle ashore at sunset.
