There's always more to a place than first meets the eye. My tours aim to bring you on a journey to the very core of what makes every place unique—the people, the stories, and the local culture. On this tour of Melbourne, my goal is for you to experience the unique beauty and diverse culture of Melbourne, from glorious gold history, magnificent architecture, laneways, and street arts to gorgeous gardens.

A winding boardwalk along the Yarra River. Narrow backstreets are colored with graffiti. Melbourne sits at the intersection of the historic and the contemporary, sophistication and creativity. Australia's second-biggest city was built on hard work and gold during the 19th century. Today, Melbourne is an eclectic melting pot shaped by international influences and is Australia's thriving hub for culture, gastronomy, and art.

From top to bottom, we were able to see Melbourne from the glossy shops to the quirky Brighton Beach, to the magnificent memorials and flowers more than we could have imagined at the gardens. We were able to see all of Melbourne and hear fascinating back stories that let color and richness to our experience. It gave a depth to Melbourne that we would not have gotten on our own really impressed with the quality of the tour you will not be disappointed. We learnt more history and interesting sites than we had anticipated. The tour was personable and informing and fun.

Ben was kind and extremely knowledgeable. When we expressed interest in cricket & F1 he adapted the tour & found us the F1 shop. Then drove us around Albert Park to “experience” the track at considerably slower speeds. Thx Ben for being a gracious host for your city.

So nice that we booked this tour the night before and Ben was able to pick us up at the airport, show us all around Melbourne, and then drop us off to meet our friend who was picking us up. We got to see all around the city. Be sure you ask for the specific things that you want to see. Thankfully, Ben was very flexible and picked us up a little early since our flight was so early. He was also very knowledgeable about this city and enjoyed telling us about it. We enjoyed our day!
