Highlights

Grab your comfiest walking shoes and head out on a historical walking tour around Melbourne. Choose to experience the city during the Victorian gold rush, or explore Melbourne's earliest buildings on foot.

Gold fever swept the city in 1852, and tripled the population in just three years! Comb the streets of Melbourne like a prospector to discover the sights and stories of Melbourne's tumulous history. Walk the footsteps of the miners and uncover tales of drinking, debauchery and excesses under the cover of poverty, poor sanitation, and a seedy underworld.

Travel back in time, pre-gold rush, to visit the oldest buildings in Melbourne. Constructed before the population explosion of the 1850s, you'll see historical churches, pubs, homes and businesses. Admire the early architecture and even have a glass of beer at the Mitre Tavern, the oldest building in the city.
