Discover 3 hidden Melbourne bars with a local guide

The experience includes entry to three hidden bars, a live local guide, Melbourne stories and lesser-known facts, personalised cocktail recommendations, snacks or pizza and a map or selection of additional hidden bars.

Drinks are not included and must be purchased separately. The activity listing also mentions express security access.

The experience is rated 4.6/5 from 94 reviews. Guests particularly praise the guides' knowledge, the bars they discover, cocktails and included food. The guide rating is 4.7/5, while value for money scores 4.4/5.

Some reviewers feel the final stop could be improved and mention occasional service waits or variations in drink quality. Overall, the tour is most attractive for travellers who value discovery, atmosphere and local recommendations rather than simply finding the cheapest drinks.

The tour is particularly appealing to first-time Melbourne visitors, cocktail lovers, couples or groups of adult friends who prefer exploring the nightlife with local guidance. In three hours, you can visit several venues and pick up ideas for the rest of your evening.

It is less suitable if your main priority is drinking as cheaply as possible, since all drinks cost extra. It is also unsuitable for guests under 18 or travellers with mobility difficulties.
