Guide Bio
Hailing from Perth, Western Australia, Ben is a former journalist, banker and European tour guide. His resume also includes five years running walking tours of the Melbourne CBD, before he got his sh$t together and started Drinking History Tours.
Ben has lived in Melbourne since moving from Perth in 2005 and has also lived in London (a glorious stint from 2008 to 2009) and Spain (10 incredible semanas in 2012).
A keen traveller, Ben has visited, to date, 192 cities in 43 countries. It’s never enough. Never, ever.
What does Ben love most about Melbourne? In lieu of breaking into song, the laneway bars, sport, cafe scene and days trips are but a few of his favourite things.
When he’s not running tours, Ben also works in digital marketing.
