"Oh Darling, Let's Be Adventurers. " Explore with a Local! I have lived in Melbourne for over 30 years and call myself a local. I have a long-time love and passion for Melbourne, and created a city of Melbourne tour which covers the laneways, parks, gardens, historical buildings and the Golden Mile. I also venture past the city precinct into the first suburb of Melbourne, Fitzroy, to showcase wonderful street art, the buildings of Mac Robertson (chocolate entrepreneur), quirky shops and coffee shops/restaurants. My love of gourmet food, fine wine and walking saw the birth of Wine and Food Lovers' Tours — which offered group, private and flexible, tours of the stunning Victorian winery regions. The tours are sure to provide a memorable experience for any wine lover and outdoor enthusiast. I regular travel the Great Ocean Road (in both directions) and also visit our winery regions. Besides this, I have a passion for the bushland around Melbourne and can plan a hiking tour for travellers encompassing your interests. I am a member of Tour Guides Australia (TGA) and am an expert events coordinator, having worked for many years as a corporate conference and exhibition organiser. My experience as a leader of the Koonung Bushwalking Club, current leader of the South Gippsland Walking and Adventure Club, leader of the Strzelecki Bushwalking Club and Ladybirds Outdoors Adventures means that you are in safe hands as you enjoy the picturesque scenery of the Victorian countryside. I also speak German fluently. "Researching and planning itineraries has been an absolute pleasure, and is ongoing. I have met so many talented locals and am so excited to be able to showcase the magnificent sites of Melbourne and regional Victoria to both visitors from overseas as well as the locals—who may not have experienced their own backyard this way ever before! Whether you choose to do a walking or a driving tour, I am sure that your day will be an experience you will remember forever.

Overview of your Melbourne tour

The Great Ocean Road is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Victoria. I will pick you up for your private tour at 7. 00 am (Cruise Ship 8. 00 am). On the spectacular Great Ocean Road, you will experience a breathtaking coastline with pristine beaches, rainforests, charming seaside towns, and of course the iconic 12 Apostles. Leaving Melbourne, we'll stop in Anglesea or at the Split Point Lighthouse for morning tea. We shall also visit Bells Beach, well-known for its annual Rip Curl Surfing event. We visit the historic Memorial Arch to get a photo taken before passing through the quaint coastal resort town of Lorne. Next up we head to the picturesque Apollo Bay for lunch. After lunch, we travel through the Otway Rainforest and wind our way through Port Campbell National Park to arrive at the Shipwreck Coast, the home of the 12 Apostles.
