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!
