News Flash! There is more to shopping and textiles in the centre
of Melbourne than most people realise. Imagine finding
those shops hidden up laneways, up hard to find stairs,
or down into a secret cellar. Leave the noisy bus
behind and casually stroll
along a street art filled laneway or sneak up a city arcade to
find that something different. Cost here...
The tour starts off at 2pm to
enjoy the best the shopping day has to offer. No History or
architecture on this tour - we seek out craft, clothing, jewellery,
hat and other stores that are specially selected
for style, proximity and suited to the tastes of our guests.
Specially arranged stops with Jewellers, Milliners or
similar artisans are arranged to give you that special experience
of seeing a 'secret' side to Melbourne.
Coupled with great local coffee and a great
afternoon tea in a great city cafe at the conclusion,
you know you are going to have a great day out in the
Melbourne city!
Retro shop, Melbourne.
