³Ô¹ÏÍø Street Tours

Everyone knows ³Ô¹ÏÍø is famous for colourful and ever-changing street art, but did you know that famed street artist Banksy called our art ‘more diverse and original than any other city in the world’? The best way to find it is with a local ³Ô¹ÏÍø artist. On this tour you’ll go beyond Hosier Lane and into secret laneways where the paint is still drying. Then, head to Blender Studios to see resident artists in action. Walk up an unsigned cul-de-sac to find every wall covered in stencils, art and paste-ups. Inside, you’ll see no space in the studio has been left untouched.

Many visitors never discover some of ³Ô¹Ï꿉۪s best bars. That’s because they’re hidden down laneways and behind camouflaged doors. Find your way on the Hidden Bars tour. You’ll learn the city’s history while indulging in a progressive dinner at four secret drinking dens. Try local craft beer out of a shipping container. Peruse an epic cocktail menu down a tiny alley. Or munch on canapes while you take in the city skyline views. There’s no shortage of places to discover.
