Melbourne History & Donuts Walking Tour

We had a wonderful time on the Coffee and Donut Walking Tour! We learned so much about Melbourne while enjoying some delicious local treats. The small-group format made the experience feel almost like a private tour for our family and allowed for plenty of personalized interaction along the way. A special shout-out to Rhonda, who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Her warmth, knowledge, and enthusiasm made this a memorable way to discover the city. Highly recommended!

I had a delightful day exploring Melbourne’s history during the History & Donut Walking Tour that showcased iconic sites and laneways attractions. The tour guide, Rhonda, was professional, knowledgeable, and engaging. She shared fascinating insights about Melbourne’s architecture and history, making the experience even more enriching. I had a wonderful time with her, immersing myself in the cultural highlights and learning about the area's rich past.

Nate was a fantastic tour guide. He was knowledgeable and was very friendly.

Great tour. Bianca was very nice and very informative. Knew her stuff. Donuts were a delicious treat. Would definitely recommend this tour.

This was a fantastic tour and our tour guide, Rhonda, was wonderful. Highly recommend!!! Great for families!!!

Bianca was a fun guide for this tour. We saw many of the big sites in Melbourne, most notably the laneway street art. It felt like we kind of wandered around the streets without really knowing where we were going, but there is so much to see that it was fun anyway.

We had an excellent tour around the city. I'm not sure how many KM we did, but my watch counted over 17k steps. Our guide, Bianca, knew the history of the city and had amazing stories to tell about some of the characters in Melbourne's past. The Melbourne Marathon threw the normal path for the tour out of kilter but Bianca effortlessly managed detours so we were able to see all the tour highlights. She was also very accommodating with some sit down discussions so I could rest my back. Very grateful so I was able to enjoy the whole tour. The donuts and coffee stops gave the trip a real feeling of being 'foodies' in a city known as a real 'foody' town We would highly recommend this tour as an introduction to all that Melbourne has to offer and request Bianca as your guide. She did a terrific job👍👍👍

A great tour very informative and interesting. I live close to Melbourne and have walked passed the things discussed and not realised there importance. I would recommend this tour.

I took my girlfriend on the Donuts Tour for her birthday and we had such a great time! Bianca was an amazing guide and made exploring Melbourne feel even more special. Highly recommend!

Tony was amazing! His knowledge of the city is incredible while walking and talking the entire time. I loved being so active and getting to so many parts of Melbourne and learning some rich history. Tony was kind and considerate asking if my needs were being met -a lovely gentleman! The coffee and donuts were very delicious and perfectly timed with bathroom breaks on the tour. I would highly recommend this for a fun and delicious way to get to know Melbourne!

Tony is a fantastic guide — the donuts and coffee were a bonus. A fun tour filled with new knowledge. Highly recommend.

The Coffee and Donuts tour is a great way to see the sights of Melbourne, whether you are a born and bred Melbournian (like myself and my friends on the tour) or a tourist wanting to see the sights. And yes there is coffee and donuts included!! Our tour guide Miles has great knowledge of the places we visited, including all the small laneways within the city streets. We highly recommend the tour!

Great walking tour with friendly, knowledgeable guide. Enjoyed seeing the sights, learning the background info, and stops for coffee and donuts along the way. The tours mix of iconic places and some lesser know spots. Would recommend as a good way to get introduced to Melbourne.

Anthony’s stories and the route he selected made this a memorable morning, we all learned heaps about the city and had a good time

It was easy to book. Tony, our guide was easy to find. We got super lucky and we’re the only ones on this particular tour… He gave us so much information. He was so excited to share the beautiful city of Melbourne. We could never have learned the city on our own. We had delicious donuts and incredible lattes! Your Torres are always spot on with Spot on People… Can’t wait to do another one in another city soon!

Myles was an excellent guide! He was personable and knowledgeable. Great way to see a bit of Melbourne!

If You happen to have Miles are Your Guide You are in for a memorable Day! He was engaging, friendly, knowledgeable, and humourous on this Tour. I wont give away where the Donut Stops are - but can say that You get to pick from a good range of flavours ; donuts were so yummy This is a fun and unique way to explore City of Melbourne for a few hours. It is well paced with a good number of stops, so suits any fitness level Highly recommend this Tour. Definitely a must do when in Melbourne :-)

Friendly, knowledgeable local who loves to share his experiences of Melbourne. Excellent way to familiarise you with the landmarks and laneways, and history of the city. Great donuts.

Boy what a great morning tour. Our group was small so the guide adjusted and were able to spending more time talking about local history spots that we were interested in (Mitre Tavern, Hoiser Lane Grafiti, the old Victoria Club where the Great Bookie Robbery occurred). The additional stops for coffee and donuts were perfect.

Friendly and knowledgeable guide. Well paced and interesting history recommended for those who can walk around for a couple of hours. The donut stops are well considered and sooo tasty..

The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and humorous on this tour. Paced well for being able to stop and observe the history of Melbourne. Donuts were great! Would highly recommend for those who don’t consider themselves fit walkers but can manage a few hours.

Did the tour with friends as a way to see our city but we would have liked to see inside some of the historic buildings to get a better understanding rather than just walk past, for example instead of standing at the Cathedral talking about Young and Jackson’s cross the road and see Chloe, maybe a good idea also to go into some of the arcades or The Forum or the State Library where possible . The concept is great but I think the delivery can be improved. Maybe look to drop QVM to allow more time at other places as it is a fair way out of the way and you actually need time to appreciate that part of town. Also would be great if the guide had donuts at the start so you really feel like it is a donut and history walk. We did learn a few things but we were a little disappointed with the delivery

Going "walkabout" on this tour was an excellent way to see parts of Melbourne I would never have found on my own. We visited significant buildings, meandered down the famous laneways, and checked out some fabulous street art. Ants was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide who really knew his city's history. A fabulous way to spend a couple of hours.

What a lovely tour I was unexpectedly alone in Melbourne and wondered what to do. This tour was perfect.

We really loved discovering things we would never have found on our own or known the history of. Our guide (Tony) was very well informed. And I am still remembering the taste of that donut!

Punctual, polite and full of interesting sites off the tourist track. Doughnuts were unbelievable! Our guide lived in Melbourne all his life and showed that he knows his history.

Savoury and history. Loved the tour with our lovely tour guide Tony. He was informative and entertaining. The tour takes you through interesting parts of the city and you definitely know it well by the time you finish it.

So many places visited, will go back for further exploration. Also places to eat and shop. The knowledge of thr tour guide helped me see and hear more.

First time in Melbourne with my family and it was a great and fun way to learn about the city. Our tour rep (Mark) is fun, friendly and very knowledgeable. Really like the donuts & coffee during the city tour...thank you so much for the great experience! Highly recommended.

An interesting, fun, and well-paced tour! Our guide, Miles, was engaging, delightful, and struck the perfect mix of history, chatter, and recommendations for experiencing Melbourne like a local. The donuts and coffee (hot chocolate for us) were yummy and perfect for a fresh Melbourne day. And for myself and my friend, who don’t particularly like doing typical “touristy” stuff, it felt more like walking around the city with a friend for a couple hours than a typical tour.

I enjoyed seeing parts of Melbourne City I hadn't seen before and hearing some stories of people and places I didn't know about. I thought the donuts and coffee could have been higher quality. I thought our guide should have done more research. He didn't need to tell us stories about his personal life.

What a great experience! This tour is a fun and unique way to learn about the city. Very friendly and accommodating - thank you so much!

Tony was excellent as our tour guide. He knew so much information about various sites and experiences. He adapted the tour to meet our needs. One thing I loved about this tour was although we did do the streets in the heart of the city, we also got to experience further a field. This tour involved a lot of walking but at a very comfortable pace. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Melbourne

The guide was very informative and i learned so much about the city. We were running early on time as it was only myself who booked on the day and they showed me around to extra places to make up for the allocated time. The donuts and coffee were a bonus, you get to pick what flavour you’d like from each store and they pay for it as it’s included in the pricing. Definitely a must do if your visiting melbourne for the first time!!

Great Tour - saw all the main sights as well as the hidden laneways. Our guide was very accommodating and informative. Donuts were nice too.
