What to expect
This isn't a regular history tour. Join local AFLW player and She Shapes History guide Rebecca for an exclusive tour of Melbourne's history of women in sport. You'll gain insider knowledge of Melbourne's women's sporting history as we walk from Melbourne's CBD to the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). From the lesbians who founded Australia's first gym for women to the Melbourne socialite who started a bike riding craze, this unique tour will leave you feeling empowered, entertained and inspired to learn more. This tour is perfect for first time visitors, seasoned Melbournians and interstate travellers alike. We welcome all guests aged 13+ on this tour. The walk covers about 2.5km at a relaxed pace, and there are a few places to pause and sit down along the way. Together we'll uncover some incredible stories of game-changing women and dive into the history that put Melbourne on the sporting map.
