I am a passionate traveller and explorer. You've probably heard this before, but the reality is that my life has been designed around my passion for travel. I have never worked a full-time job in my life, as that would restrict my travels. Since my university days I have been in business and designed my business operations in a way that ensures I have plenty of time to travel both in and around Australia, as well as other parts of the world. Today, I am the owner of a Melbourne based tour operation, and am able to earn an income from my passion. I design each and every tour from the perspective of a tourist, incorporating elements which make the tours interesting, innovative and unique. I tend to focus on beautiful locations which are not known by the general public, allowing my guests to experience something different, yet exciting and unexpected. For example, I have possibly the best Great Ocean Road tour on the market. I cover more locations that others in the same amount of time. This is simply because we start later avoiding the traffic, and do the loop in the opposite direction. The hour or so saved on driving allows that hour to be spent on two additional locations. Simple, yet effective! My passion for travel, exploration and sharing these experiences in reflected in my approach to my guests and the tours themselves - never rushed and always informative and entertaining. Apart from travel, I am passionate about business and commerce. I have a business consultancy firm in Australia as well as a cleaning and personal services business in Poland. I spend time on self development learning practical skills such as website design, graphic design, film editing and other skills which can be applied in a business setting. At nights I am often seen in parks and beaches around Melbourne metal detecting and treasure hunting. In fact, I am an experienced international treasure hunter where I take my metal detecting equipment with me on my international travels. In the past I invested in shares and options, being a level 4 options trader. In more recent years I have taken my investment funds and used them to invest in Australian souvenirs and gifts which I wholesale and export to Europe.

Insured against public liability to the value of $20 million. My transport vehicle is a 5 series BMW. However, having three reasonably sized passengers in the back may cause some discomfort. If you have a group of 4, consider your comfort tolerance levels. I can source a 7, 9, 10 or 12 seater vehicle, as needed.

Overview of your Melbourne tour

A true sightseeing tour where you visit a number of iconic locations in and around Melbourne, including the Formula 1 track, bathing huts at Dendy St Beach and the beauty of the Mornington Peninsula region. As with all my tours, I have designed this sightseeing tour with the traveller in mind. The Mornington Peninsula is a region that satisfies even the most discernible traveller, however, the issue with this region for most tourists is the difficulty in getting there. With very limited public transport and the need to travel more than 70km from the Melbourne CBD, it makes sense to partner with me to experience and appreciate this great region. The two Melbourne locations also have public transport limitations. This tour provides an efficient and effective way to explore locations which many tourists miss because of their inability to get there. The default start time for this tour is 10am, however, since this is a private tour it is possible to alter start times according you your preferences.

Your Melbourne tour itinerary

A luxury, air-conditioned, leather seated vehicle will transport you to 6 locations which you will get to explore with plenty of opportunities to take photos and enjoy the amazing characteristics of each location. I will pick you up from a mutually agreed location and chauffeur you to Albert Park Lake, which is transformed to a formula 1 race track during the Australian Grand Prix. We follow the race track and stop at the pits and starting line for photos. Next we make our way towards Victoria's most photographed beach - Dendy St Beach stopping for an explore and photoshoot. Arthurs Seat is our first stop on the Mornington Peninsula where you see the beauty of the region from the heights of the mountain. After a short bushwalk we take the coastal route through Mornington, stopping at Oliver's Hill Lookout, before heading back home to Melbourne via the scenic Beach Road and Beaconsfield Parade.
