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 is for those who have more time to explore all the highlights of the Great Ocean Road region at a leisurely pace over 2 days , rather than a long 12 hour day trip. Stop and take photos, explore the scenery, take a leisurely walk in the rainforest, climb a lighthouse*, and see the 12 Apostles both in the setting sun and then again the following morning. Explore more of the beautiful coastal scenery in the Port Campbell area and visit a selection of the many attractions on the Otway Harvest trail, including a cheese or chocolate factory or a gin distillery, before heading back to Melbourne. You may also want to consider my All in One 12 Apostles, Great Ocean Road, Mornington Peninsular, Penguins, Puffing Billy & Yarra Valley wineries 3 day tour. Or my 3 Day Great Ocean Road and Grampians tour that includes the Bay of Islands, Tower Hill and the magnificent Grampians Ranges. Or my 4 Day Great Ocean Road, Grampians and Gold Rush tour that also allows you to also visit to Sovereign Hill.
