I am. . . . a born and bred Melbournian, energetic, love travel, having fun, and meeting new people. I'll give you a tour as if you only have one day in Melbourne and need to know everything. Prior to the tour, I will ask you what you hope to get from the tour and any particular interests. I am happy to be available to you before or after the tour for questions or advice. I can offer you a variety of tours and durations - just ask. I am passionate about Melbourne and would love to pass my enthusiasm about this place on to you. My guiding has received great reviews that I am proud of and work hard to maintain. I am a member of The Professional Tour Guides Association of Australia and also the Guiding Organisation of Australia. I have done the Australian Tourism Accreditation Program. I have a Bachelor of Education and a post-graduate Diploma in Marketing and Counselling. I am fit and first aid certified. I am a mother, wife, volunteer, and soccer coach. I love sharing my passion for Melbourne anyway I can - by car, bus, tram or walking. You pick! I prefer not to guide the Great Ocean Road - driving 7 hours is not my idea of fun! :)

Great all comprehensive tour

We had a wonderful day with Michelle! With only one day to experience Melbourne, she introduced us to important and historical landmarks, the unique architecture, local food favorites and different neighborhoods around the city. We rode in her comfortable car, took the local trams and walked so we could visit and to see everything around the city. Full of energy, great conversations and a wealth of information, I’d encourage everyone to book a tour with Michelle.

Your Melbourne tour itinerary

This tour gives an overview of Melbourne from a Jewish perspective, by car, tram, & walking. If you have difficulties walking, please advise. We can visit a synagogue, the Jewish Museum, the Holocaust museum (all $18pp fee on the day), the Shrine of Remembrance, see Jewish life in action, & bakeries. The itinerary is dependent on your interests, opening hours, the day of the week you tour etc. Access to these places is not readily available & planning is required.
