I am an experienced and enthusiastic nationally accredited and qualified guide offering private tours of Melbourne and surrounding attractions. I am passionately interested in sharing my love of Melbourne and Victoria with others, and deliver high quality customised tours tailored to meet your needs. I love touring and meeting people from all walks of life. From my extensive experience as a tourist and a tour guide I have a good understanding of a discerning tourist's needs. I run specialised walking tours exploring downtown Melbourne's great history and culture. If you want to explore a bit more that Melbourne has to offer, we can use the largest tram network in the world to get around. I also operate day tours in an air conditioned vehicle exploring the history and enjoying the magnificent scenery that Victoria has to offer. Popular destinations are the Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles, the Penguin Parade at Phillip Island, and Yarra Valley wineries and Healesville Sanctuary. I also offer tours of more than one day to these locations. However, please note that due to a recent medical operation that prevents me from driving for 12 months, I will not be able to deliver vehicle based tours until November 2026 I can also develop multi-day tour itineraries to places such as the Victorian Alps, Bendigo, and the magnificent paddle steamers on the Murray River at Echuca, Wilsons Promontory, and Walhalla historic gold mining town nestled deep in the Great Dividing Range. I can also develop tours exploring the Snowy Mountains and Snowy River wilderness and destinations such as the Flinders Ranges and Broken Hill in outback Australia Let me know what you are interested in and I can prepare a custom itinerary My tours are flexible and can be tailored to meet your individual needs. Car based tours are in a high quality air conditioned vehicle that combines comfort with a more intimate atmosphere than you get in a large coach.

Overview of your Melbourne tour
This tour allows you to explore both the Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles region and Grampians at leisure. Visit Bells Beach surf beach or view waterfalls Stop and take photos along the Great Ocean Road, take a leisurely walk in the rainforest or Californian Redwoods, or climb a lighthouse. See the 12 Apostles both in the setting sun and in the morning, and maybe take a stunning helicopter ride along the coast. Explore more beautiful coastal scenery in the Port Campbell area including London Bridge, The Arch and The Grotto, as well as the stunning Bay of Islands. Look out for whales (May - Oct). Visit an extinct volcanic crater to see native wildlife. Travel the rugged Grampians Ranges for lookouts, wildlife, and waterfalls. If you have more time, look at my 4 Day Great Ocean Road, Grampians and Gold Rush tour that allows more time in the Grampians to see aboriginal rock paintings, and a daytime visit to Sovereign Hill. I can also prepare a quote for groups with more than 5 travellers.
