Description
Melbourne's hidden bars are so well hidden that even many locals don't know where to find them! Join us to discover where the best ones are with guaranteed bookings at 3 and list of others with information on how to get in so that you can continue your night out. Come alone or come with friends. Your tour host loves meeting new people and loves telling you about the places you visit and pointing out other hidden or little known facts during the short stroll from bar to bar. We don't get any commissions from the bars we visit, so you know we're always going to take you to the places that we think you'll love the most - the same places we would take our friends to! Finger food is included, but drinks can be paid for at the bars which helps us keep the price of the tour low.
