I love getting out and about in my city of Melbourne. I love classic cars - finding them, restoring them, driving them and sharing them. I love meeting people - from all walks of life. And I love the prospect of creating individual tour and travel experiences that combine all of these things! Having travelled a good deal overseas, nationally, interstate and regionally I have come to appreciate the difference that local knowledge and a unique perspective via private touring can give to a holiday or celebration experience - and I have been developing my skills as an operator now for several years . . . changing hats from being a customer to becoming a host. :) By way of background, I strive to enjoy a world full of meaning, value, joy, humour and richness through the things I do and the people I spend time with . . . and this goes to being in the outdoors; enjoying a good meal and nice wine (also whisky after hours); discussing the ways (good and bad) of the world; staring up at the sky or out at the ocean; hanging about with my family, friends and neighbours; or simply reading the newspaper or a decent book. And, of course, finding a little time each week to have a wrench in my hand! My aim is to provide interesting, unique, relaxed (cruise), fun and informative experiences for my guests. I look forward to seeing you on the road!

    My husband and I had a wonderful tour of Melbourne and the surrounding area with John. He gave us a locals view of the city and took us to some beautiful out of the way spots. As soon as he heard my husband was an F1 fan he added a drive by of the paddock and grand stand area. It was the highlight of the day! Thank you John for a memorable day!

    John was the best! The car was a fantastic, but John is what makes the trip special.

    A great day out, Joe – and extra special for me being in the company of Chevrolet dealership 'royalty'! Cheers, John.

    We were in Melbourne on a cruise. John is a wonderful host to introduce you to this fabulous city. The car is as comfortable as it is beautiful. Highly recommend this tour.
