Melbourne Lanes & Arcades Chocolate And Dessert Walking Tour

Wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and great fun. Definitely a must do tour for the Chocolate Lover.

Great little group and nice location to visit. i do feel the price is a little high. I'd suggest $80 price range.

To wait on Elizabeth street entrance. To be weather prepared and wear comfortable foot wear. To be open to tasting different chocolates and desserts.

Ivan was fantastic. His knowledge of Melbourne and love for chocolate really made the experience memorable and enjoyable

Great chocolate tastings and fun walking around the city to the different shops. Guide was knowledgeable and shared lots of information about chocolate and Melbourne.

We had a fantastic time during the tour and learned so many cool things from Brianna about the area and laneways that she guided us through. Highly recommend this tour because the hidden laneways we totally missed when we walked the area the day before. If it were not for this trip we wouldn't have known these cool places existed! On top of that, we tasted some of the most delicious chocolate treats!

My friend and I had the best time on the chocoholic tour with Brianna. The chocolates were incredible, the cheese was a delicious surprise, and every stop had its own little treats that made the whole experience feel so thoughtful. Brianna herself was an absolute gem - hilarious, welcoming, and full of knowledge about Melbourne. She showed us hidden laneways and little details you’d normally walk straight past, which made the tour feel really special! Couldn’t recommend it more.

Lauren was an amazing guide, relaxed but organized. Delicious treats with the right amount of information. Lovely visit!

Good way to know more about Melbourne. We had a great time learning about the great arcades and lanes while tasting good chocolate. Tonya was a great guide.

Our tour guide Brianna was very friendly and informative. The stops were great and the last stop was next level. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Melbourne.

A really good tour seeing the arcades of Melbourne and plenty of local chocolate tasting . Our guide Tanya was very informative Only thing I would probably change is the walk through the modern shopping centre- better to stick to the older more interesting lanes and arcades .

Great tour with lots of interesting facts about Melbourne &, of course, lots of delicious chocolate!

This chocolate tour was with Ivan. He was a great host and very knowledgeable. The tastings were wonderful and he was very entertaining including giving us random trivia facts during the tour.

Our tour guide Tonya was energetic and informative. The tour showed us many interesting arcades and lanes and the chocolate treats were delicious.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour with Brianna who was informative and lots of fun. Enjoyed the tastings and especially loved the chocolate wontons and spring rolls. Met a crocodile on Elisabeth Street which was a big surprise. Highly recommend this tour!

The tour was very nice and informative. Our guide Tonya was very knowledgeable and informative. She kept the group moving at a good and steady pace.

Great tour as well as tasting chocolate you experience walking through the lanes and alleyways and learn the history of Melbourne

Fantastic! We’d never done a chocolate tour before and definitely enjoyed ourselves. Far from chocolate connoisseurs but Ivan taught us so much, including the correct way to taste chocolate. Great way to see Melbourne but so much better than any other walking tour because, chocolate. Thank you Ivan!

Today, my wife and I devoted three most delightful and delicious hours exploring, dining, and discussing all things chocolate and art with guide Lauren from Melbourne Lanes and Arcades, Chocolate and Dessert Tour. Lauren’s presentation was informative and interesting as she presented chocolate factoids regarding our destinations, chocolates served, and historical briefs regarding the Melbourne locations we visited and thoroughly enjoyed along the itinerary’s route. The five chocolate destinations were varied and provided absolutely surprising and scrumptious variations ranging from chocolate ganache toast to chocolate themed cookies to Chinese chocolate dumplings to other mouth-watering chocolate morsels. Knowing we were visual art lovers, Lauren even included brief stoppages at several of Melbourne’s alley murals. The tour offered a nice variation between walking and having a couple of stops where we could sit and rest. We are so very pleased to offer our highest recommendation and praise for the quality of the tour, the tastings and, especially, of our guide, Lauren.

Loved this tour. We live in Melbourne and we learnt a lot and went to places I didn't know existed. Dont find out where you will be going on the tour as its always a lovely surprise, especially if you do the 3 hour tour. The last stop is excellent!! Highly recommended. Lauren our host was fabulous, chatty and informative.

Fantastic tour! Lots fun, engaging and interesting. All the tastings delicious. Our guide Ivan was amazing! It was a great day!

We were greeted by our guide Ivan with a great sense of humor and a warm welcome smile. The tour guide had lots of great knowledge and enthusiasm about Melbourne and took us to the most amazing places where the staff were as equally friendly.

Wow! Indulgent decadence, incredibly diverse deep dive into chocolate. Ivan is the man when it comes to this tour, very knowledgeable about chocolate and Melbourne not to mention a heck of a lot of fun! Chocolate presented in ways I could not have even imagined!

We enjoyed a wonderful tour with Ivan as our guide. In addition to the many delicious chocolate tastings he provided historical information, stories and fun facts about marvelous Melbourne. Thank you, Ivan!

Ivan was a great guide - knowledgeable about chocolate, but also about Melbourne. A good variety of stops in the tour, and no hard sell to but anything.

Ivan was great - personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. The selection of chocolate sampling locations was perfect!

A great tour with some unusual chocolate recipes tasted. The guide was knowledgeable and took us to places we might not have found. However were veey full of chocolate by the end!

Fantastic, fun tour and visited five different locations Around Melbourne…….well worth it! Various options at each stop.

Excellent tour: 2 couples, Ivan was very informative on chocolate and Melbourne arcades. Took us to places we would never have thought of going to, impressive architecture. Plenty of chocolate and also included teas and spices and cheese. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and recommend it.

Tonya was really cheery & knowledgeable about the areas we walked, & the treats we indulged in. It was an easy walk & the chocolatey tastings weren't just in traditional chocolate shops. It was a lot of fun & I'd highly recommend this walking tour

We really enjoyed the tour. Really worth it. Tonya done s great job .. very friendly and helpful. Well done . The paces we visited offered very yum as samples .

Brianna gave a great tour around the various chocolate shops in Downtown Melbourne. She provided some great information and background regarding the shops and the area that we otherwise would not have found! The chocolate was all delicious and well presented by the shops. Definitely worth the time and price!

The guide Lauren was very informative and the chocolate was delicious! We saw clock performances and historical arcades.

Tonya was a fabulous guide and had a lot of really good info. Not only did we learn about all of the different chocolates we were trying, but she gave us recommendations for things to do/eat around the city as well. Super fun experience!

A diverse number of chocolate tastings. A good walk around the Collins street area. History, eclectic shops. Great intro to that part of the city.

I am not one to usually go on these kind of tours but I have to say this was a great way to spend 3 hours in Melbourne. The time flew by and there was not one moment of boredom. Amanda’s local knowledge was great and the places she took the group had succulent coffee, chocolates and desserts. This tour is a must for any couples, groups of friends or families that visit Melbourne. 10/10!

An amazing tour 10/10 Amanda was the perfect guide it was so much more than a walking chocolate tour thoroughly recommend this tour could not fault it.

We had a beautiful time with Amanda as our guide on this tour - such positive and energetic vibes, made the tour memorable! Chocolate was high quality, diverse and delicious

This was the best walking tour I’ve done! Amanda was amazing and so knowable and was the most bright burst of energy. What an amazing 3 hour experience with very generous chocolate tastings. Chocolate and cheese - who would’ve thought!

My daughter chose this tour and as we both like chocolate , we enjoyed learning about this fascinating substance …Our guide Ivan filled us in on the origin and composition of chocolate and we proceeded to discover some special local treats ( won’t reveal the details but they are tasty and memorable ) Multiple venues and a lot of local history included - local architecture , characters and their links to chocolate /sweet treats in this city made it a fun few hours ….

Excellent tour. Great information and visits to very interesting places. I really enjoyed the relaxed walk around Melbourne with great company and lots of chocolate.

Ivan was our guide. Very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about chocolate and Melbourne. We had a great outing and visited some lovely places we would never have found/looked at ourselves. Tasted some wonderful chocolate and saw lots of interesting things. Couldn't fault this outing in any way.

Great day seeing the lanes was good chocolate tasting very nice host was very good we had an all round good day with a nice friendly group of people

It was a fun way to try lots of different chocolates and learn a little bit about Melbourne. The guide was great and it was good value. We would have liked to explore more laneways.and arcades-that was one of the main reasons we chose this particular tour.

Who doesn’t love chocolate? We went to a variety of establishments on this tour and got delicious samples at every location. We were also given a discount on any personal purchases at all the shops. Our tour guide was lively, informative, and fun. As we walked around the city she pointed out buildings or shared fun facts about the city with us. The tour not only taught us about chocolate, but also gave us an opportunity to see and learn about the city. If you love chocolate and walking abound a bustling city take the tour. You won’t be disappointed!! Don’t forget to tip your tour guide!

We had a fun and informative chocolate and cheese tour around the arcades and lanes in Melbourne. Would recommend to anyone who loves chocolate and a taste for history.

Attended the tour with my daughter, Lauren was brilliant, easy to get a long with and very knowledgeable. Loved our Morning wandering around the Melb arcades and laneways. Highly recommend, and hope you are lucky enough to get Lauren.

Great tour, incorporating a range of different ways to enjoy chocolate. Our guide Ivan, was also very informative and entertaining.

Guide Tonya was excellent. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Maybe need to update variety of stores visited. Tastings were not as good as previous tour taken.
