Errol was a most fantastic guide full of great stories of Melbourne and a sense of humour to match. We had a brilliant day exploring Melbourne with him and learned a lot in the process. Spending a day with Errol exploring Melbourne is both informative and guaranteed fun. We couldn't recommend him more highly!

We had a fantastic experience with Errol and couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the Melbourne. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging, with great stories and insights that really brought each stop to life. The tour was well paced, thoughtfully planned, and flexible to our interests, which made it feel personal rather than rushed. I highly recommend Errol to anyone looking for an informative and enjoyable experience in Melbourne.

We had Errol for 2 tours and he was just great. Very knowledgeable about Melbourne and its surrounding area and showed us some wonderful sites that are not on everyone's must see list that were just fabulous.

I have had private tours in over 50 cities and this tour has been the most fantastic one to date! Errol is the most knowledgeable tour guide I have met, he is kind, considerate and his knowledge and love for Melbourne is beyond expectation. His car is luxurious with a huge sun roof that allowed us almost a 180 degree view. In a short time he provided me an experience of Melbourne that had me see why it is always voted the most livable city in the world. I'm so so lucky he could fit us in!

Your Melbourne tour itinerary

I will collect you from a city hotel, cruise terminal or other pre-arranged collection point. We will travel to the city CBD for an overview and walk the famous Hosier lane with its unique street art/ graffiti .. Your starting time is usually 0900 but can be adjusted accordingly. If travelling by ship remember to bring your ships pass in order to get back on board. Upon completion, I will drop you off at your hotel, cruise terminal or casino. I look forward to showcasing Melbourne to you , so that you too can" say we will be back." as so many of my tourists have stated .
