Melbourne Half Day Tour by Private Car

G’day! I’m Simon. A Melbourne local and enthusiastic professional tour guide. It would be my pleasure to show you around the city – and indeed the state – that I know and love. Victoria might be Australia’s second smallest state, but the diversity of culture and landscapes here is unmatched. From bustling cities to sleepy towns, ragged mountains to pristine beaches, arid interior to lush forests, it’s all here. And in our capital Melbourne, the huge array of sports, foods, theatres, galleries and gardens make it a delight to explore. It’s no wonder that we’re often called one of the world’s most liveable cities. After a career in sales followed by a 10-year stint in the education sector, I became a tour guide so I could help visitors to Australia enjoy it as much as I do. When not working, you’ll often find me checking out a new café, restaurant or winery, or walking in one of our many stunning National Parks. I have a small number of tours listed here, but can customise these or tailor something completely different to suit your individual needs. Melbourne has a wonderful tram network that I use when exploring the inner city. For tours to other areas or those preferring to be transported by car, I will hire a suitable vehicle. For solo travellers, I usually use my top-of-the-line Suzuki Vitara AWD which is ideal for trips to the Yarra Valley, Dandenong Ranges and the Great Ocean Road. I am an Accredited Professional Guide with Tour Guides Australia and am authorised by Safe Transport Victoria to carry passengers. I also hold a current first aid certificate and Working With Children Check and am comprehensively insured. Please browse my listed tours or send me a message. I will do everything I can to make your trip to Melbourne one you won’t forget.
