You’ll join one of our local Melbourne hosts to head to Melbourne’s northern suburbs for a jaunt around its two trendiest neighborhoods: Fitzroy and Carlton. This is where all the cool kids come to play. But there’s more to life than hipsters, so let your host reveal the true personalities of these arty enclaves to you.

Experience the effervescent character of both neighborhoods as you wander the streets lined with bold street art and packed with vintage stores, quirky shops, hipster bars, and funky markets selling recycled upcycled and handmade goods.

Your host will take you to Carlton, with roots firmly grounded in the Italian heritage of its residents, where you can experience authentic Italian cuisine, rich culture, alfresco dining, and a taste of la dolce vita, Aussie style!

Then you will head on over to Fitzroy, where you will find vibrant and unusual street art emblazoned on every free wall, trendy concept stores which ooze creativity and style on seemingly every street, and a community-driven, eco-friendly outdoor market to explore.

With so many cool cafes and coffee shops, bars on rooftops and inside classic Victorian era shops, and eateries where organic and fair-trade produce features are on the menu, you’ll have a hard time deciding where to stop!
