- Connector100733626790 contributionsMany different faces of MelbourneWe had a very pleasant time exploring Melbourne City with my guide, Moji. She was very smiling and kind. She took many my family photos in front of various tourist spots. She asked us questions about what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go, and she got it done quickly. She took us to various places such as Melbourne's back streets, casinos, historical sites, and markets. At the market, I had the pleasure of purchasing a painting depicting Melbourne's landmarks with her. She found me a nice painting shop. I would like to thank her for making the most of her effort for our sightseeing within the limited time of 4 hours.Written 6 May 2024

- msbarb50 contributionsGreat walking tour with Sebastien!My husband and I recently did a full day tour with Sebastien as our guide. This was the first "private" tour we have done and it won't be the last! I was able to send Sebastien a 2 page list of places we were interested in seeing - he was then able to work up a tentative route ahead of time. We ticked every item but one off the list!! We did a lot of walking, heard a lot of interesting historical facts and stories and got several suggestions of other interesting places to visit in Melbourne. I would take another tour with City Unscripted again!Written 30 March 2024
- paulsO8389LZ0 contributionsThe best way to see the city in a short timeOur guide met us at the port. Guided us into the city.then took us on a 3 hr tour slow and easy as he gave us wonderful insights into Melbourne. We really learned a lot and had plenty of time.Written 19 February 2024
- marionsN5892HT0 contributionsGreat for first visit of MelbourneChris was a great guide - he showed us around the city center for more than 3 hours and was very engaging. Would recommend!Written 17 January 2024
- Sporter10 contributionsTerribleFirst there was major confusion about where we were meeting even though we were going to the location of our TripAdvisor confirmation. Next our tour guide was French and had only lived in Melbourne for 2 years. He had a heavy French accent that was very hard to understand at times. He kept asking us questions about Melbourne and wanting us to guess the answer? He was obsessed with getting us our card for the tram even though we told him repeatedly that we would take care of it ourselves. We ended the tour an hour early.Written 25 December 2023
- L3158EZmarkn0 contributionsGreat personalised walking tourReally great walking tour. Chris listened to what we were interested in and showed us the key sights with insight and great historical knowledge. Highly recommended especially if you can get ChrisWritten 30 November 2023
- Jane6890 contributionsIt was like being shown around Melbourne by a friend or family memberChris, our guide, is extremely knowledgeable on history, culture as well as a variety of topics. He is a great listener and helped us define our general ideas of what we wanted to see. We learned so much-he is a great storyteller and provided so many facts and information on what we were seeing. We feel like we saw the highlights of Melbourne. We definitely recommend Chris and will be sure to use him again on a return trip.Written 16 July 2023
- 291ryann0 contributionsI do try and find a day one tour, and this worked wellI find that a day 1 tour of a new city helps you orient yourself and feel more comfortable for the rest of the trip, as well as plan better what things you want to see and when. On this one we made a well planned loop of the central city, helping me understand it better both in terms of layout and culture. BTW, if you are visiting Melbourne, go see the Old Gaol. It's a cooler museum than it sounds like. Also, the town makes surprisingly high quality chocolate.Written 19 May 2023

Chris met us at our hotel and spent 3 hour showing and telling us about Melbourne. He was nice and very knowledgeable. Melbourne has many hidden points of interest you could never find without the help of a local.
