Meet Frank
Born in England and raised in Bendigo before making Melbourne home around eight years ago, Frank has spent the past three years showing visitors what makes this city so special. What started as a love for exploring Melbourne has grown into a genuine passion for sharing its stories, hidden corners, and unforgettable characters with people from all over the world.
A huge sports fan and self-proclaimed Melbourne enthusiast, Frank loves everything that gives the city its personality. From its famous sporting culture and laneways to its strange history and hidden stories. His curiosity has even led him to create his own tour exploring the underground, forgotten, and lesser-known side of Melbourne's past.
With Frank as your guide, you'll get more than just the famous sights. You'll discover the stories, recommendations, and little details that make Melbourne his favourite city in the world, and hopefully leave seeing the city the same way he does.
