I'm Peter J, a local tour guide in Australia, I am available in Melbourne, Adelaide & Sydney . I love traveling and connecting with people from all over the world. As a father of five sons and Eleven grandchildren, my family is spread across the globe in Sydney, Melbourne, Inverness (Scotland), Montreal (Canada), and Philadelphia (USA). Before becoming a tour guide, I worked for a multinational company, which gave me extensive travel experience and the chance to meet people from diverse backgrounds. After retiring, I wanted to continue connecting with people worldwide, which led me to ToursByLocals. It's been a fantastic platform for me to stay active, expand my knowledge, and build meaningful connections. When you book a tour with me, you can expect a private and personalized experience. With over 260 tours completed, I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge of Melbourne with you. I also offer discounted tour bundles if you'd like to book multiple day tours out of Melbourne. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or if you need assistance creating an itinerary that suits your needs. Plus if you're wishing for a custom tour through to Adalaide or Sydney please send us a message. For cruise ship passengers, I understand time constraints and have adapted my tours to ensure you're back at the terminal with plenty of time before departure. I'm committed to providing tailored experiences. Whether you have specific interests, unique tastes, or limited time, I'm happy to customize the itinerary to your preferences or even craft a completely custom private tour for you. Melbourne is a popular destination for cruise passengers, and my expertise and adaptability make me an ideal choice for exploring the city and its surroundings. If you're traveling to Australia for the first time, please lets know as I am happy to help develop your travel itinerary. I hope to see you in Melbourne!

Peter is an outstanding guide. He was knowledgeable, flexible, and very accommodating. He knows the city and we had an absolutely perfect day in Melbourne. We were able to take in some of the Great Ocean Road and then see a great deal of the city including stoping at a local pub for some "refreshments." Don't hesitated to book Peter.

Peter is a delightful guide, as authentically Australian as it's possible to be. He has travelled the globe, but it is obvious that he is proud of Melbourne and its vitality. His four-hour tour of the city takes in most of the sights, made all the more interesting with Peter's flowing narrative, lovely sense of humor and Ozian eye for human frailty. We highly recommend him and his tour.

Peter was a very nice man and I give him 4 stars. He took us to the the war memorial which was on a beautiful hill over looking the city. We also went to this shopping market which was huge. We also went to a Jewish museum which we found interesting. We went to federation square and it was packed with people. A fair of some kind was going on. We also saw the beach houses. We had a very fun day. Peter was knowledgeable about the city and took us to the things we wanted to see.
