About Martin
Still in the classroom after 15+ years — Melbourne is just the newest one.
✦✦
Martin has been walking curious visitors through Melbourne's CBD since 2026 — and he's still teaching, with over fifteen years across Victoria's classrooms behind him. He leans into the city's odd detail: the ghosts of the Coles book arcade, the misplaced ambition of the Rialto, the union hall on Bourke Street that changed a nation's mind.
He runs one tour, personally. No script, no headsets, no shouting to be heard over a bus. Just walking pace, good stories, and a habit of stopping in front of things you've walked past a hundred times.
Off the clock — when he isn't at the archives or the MCG — you'll find him arguing amiably about which tram route is the most beautiful (it's the 96).
