About this tour
Spend three hours walking Melbourne's laneways with practising street artists who know every tag, stencil and piece intimately. You'll hear the real stories behind the works and the people creating them, then head to Blender Studios for cheese, drinks and a chance to chat with the artists themselves. It's the difference between reading about a scene and being in it.

- Access to working studio spaces and artist meet-ups
- Cheese and drinks included at Blender Studios

What to expect
You'll be on your feet for the full duration, moving through Melbourne's laneways at an easy pace. Expect to stop frequently while your guide explains the history of pieces, the artists behind them, and how the local scene has evolved. The second half winds up at Blender Studios where you'll have proper time to relax, eat, and actually talk to artists about their practice. It's conversational rather than lecturing—bring questions. The tour runs regardless of weather, so bring a jacket.
