Bridget Bluestone waxes lyrical on Melbourne's seedy history. - Tour was so much fun and Bridget (Bluestone) was the most enthusiastic and engaging guide I've ever come across. The stories were fascinating and the bars we visited really cute and in a great location. The final bar (Speakeasy) was brilliant. Such great value and a brilliant way to spend a Saturday afternoon and evening.

Not so creepy tour - Everyone was nice. It was not very spooky and the stories were not great. The walk was nice and it was good to see some pubs/bars we would not have tried.
