I took two tours with MELtours during my recent visit to Melbourne and loved them both.
I booked the Laneways for my second day in town and found it to be the perfect kick start to my stay. Its simply a great tour of some of the CBD's hidden bits. I never would have found half of the places I returned to visit had it not been for this tour. Jerome was our guide for the day and he does an excellent job of giving you a brief history on the city itself as well as of all the stops throughout the tour. I think the Laneways tour is a MUST for your first visit to Melbourne. Seriously, you're doing yourself a disservice if you skip this one.
The second tour I booked was the Bike Share Tour. Another excellent tour in which our guide, again Jerome, led us through the CBD, Port Melbourne, Albert Park and Southbank pointing out interesting buildings, places and facts about the city. Not only is this is an excellent way to familiarize yourself with the city's bike share program, but a unique vantage point from which to see the city. I kind of wish I'd booked this one earlier in my trip so I could have spent a bit more time exploring the city via bike, something I wasn't quite comfortable doing prior to this tour.
