"Oh Darling, Let's Be Adventurers. " Explore with a Local! I have lived in Melbourne for over 30 years and call myself a local. I have a long-time love and passion for Melbourne, and created a city of Melbourne tour which covers the laneways, parks, gardens, historical buildings and the Golden Mile. I also venture past the city precinct into the first suburb of Melbourne, Fitzroy, to showcase wonderful street art, the buildings of Mac Robertson (chocolate entrepreneur), quirky shops and coffee shops/restaurants. My love of gourmet food, fine wine and walking saw the birth of Wine and Food Lovers' Tours — which offered group, private and flexible, tours of the stunning Victorian winery regions. The tours are sure to provide a memorable experience for any wine lover and outdoor enthusiast. I regular travel the Great Ocean Road (in both directions) and also visit our winery regions. Besides this, I have a passion for the bushland around Melbourne and can plan a hiking tour for travellers encompassing your interests. I am a member of Tour Guides Australia (TGA) and am an expert events coordinator, having worked for many years as a corporate conference and exhibition organiser. My experience as a leader of the Koonung Bushwalking Club, current leader of the South Gippsland Walking and Adventure Club, leader of the Strzelecki Bushwalking Club and Ladybirds Outdoors Adventures means that you are in safe hands as you enjoy the picturesque scenery of the Victorian countryside. I also speak German fluently. "Researching and planning itineraries has been an absolute pleasure, and is ongoing. I have met so many talented locals and am so excited to be able to showcase the magnificent sites of Melbourne and regional Victoria to both visitors from overseas as well as the locals—who may not have experienced their own backyard this way ever before! Whether you choose to do a walking or a driving tour, I am sure that your day will be an experience you will remember forever.

    We had the best tour with Patricia visiting wineries and also exploring areas to and from Mornington Peninsula. She certainly deserves more than a 5 star rating! The day was perfect, Patricia was waiting for us as we got off our ship, with a sign and a smile. She had a bag of goodies for each of us in the car as we traveled. (Water, snacks, chocolate and even a small...

    Hi Patty and Greg Thank you so much for this amazing review - we had the perfect day and I had the perfect guests :) It was wonderful hosting you and I look forward to meeting you again soon on another tour, should you head this way again.

    Loved this tour with Patricia - she tailored the tour to meet some mobility challenges and fit in so much in our time together. Laneways, murals, shopping arcades, Fitzroy gardens and fairy tree, Shine of Rembrance, galleries, lunch at Victoria Market, city buildings and Formula One racetrack and Australian Open locations. Thank you Patricia for sharing your knowledge...

    Patricia makes this long day fun, informative, and therefore very enjoyable. The 12 Apostles are a time commitment so we were fortunate to have a true professional like Patricia to host our tour. Do this tour and do it with Patricia.
