A must for sports enthusiasts! - As someone who just got into tennis, the entire tour was a fun and educational experience! Other than tennis, we also got a lot of insight on other popular sports like cricket, rugby, and even indigenous sports. The sport complex of Melbourne Park is huge! We got to see every bit of it including the massive Melbourne Cricket Ground, and even got to play tennis on the courts! Our tour guide, Ben, was very friendly, his experience and love of sports really speaks for itself!

Great opportunity to see... - Great opportunity to see the sporting facilities Melbourne has to offer as well as learn about Australian sports and a little history! Being able to play tennis on the AO grounds and taking a photo on one of the courts was a highlight! Small group personal tour.

Melbourne Sports Arena Tour - This tour was amazing. Ben is the most experienced, knowledgeable and passionate tour guide we have come across. He covered every sport (tennis, cricket, rugby, football) played at Melbourne!! It was clear that he was not doing this tour as a job! He brought tennis rackets for us to hit balls in the practice court! We highly recommend this tour!

Ticked my bucket list!!!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️ - When I saw there was a Melbourne Park tour available I jumped at the chance🙌 The tour was 3hrs long- faciltated by our wonderful guide Catherine- a Melbourne lady with a superb provenance of experience working at the Australian open, meeting the players and regaling us and entertaining us with her stories ( sorry- no spoilers here😅) Anyone with an interest in Tennis would LOVE this walking tour! Catherine was a wonderful communicator and we thoroughly enjoyed hearing about what Melbourne had to offer- plus her informative account of Melbourne park , the arenas, the Olympics park, MCG etc… we accessed the hallowed indoor arena where the ‘greats’ train and practice during their tournaments.. and…. We got to play tennis there… soo excited for that… and can I just add.. we have NO tennis skills or experience- it was just magic to do this hsving watched the majors back home!! What a privilege to access Melbourne park and Catherines knowledge 🎾❤️🎾❤️🎾 Grainne and Ailbhe Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪🇦🇺🇦🇺

강추예요 Highly recommended - 10/10 Ben was super professional and very attentive. Entire tour was filled with fun stories and history, and we've got to play tennis in the one of the courts at the end. My brother loves everything about tennis and he told me it was the best tour he ever had. It was such a great experience 솔직히 전 테니스에는 별 관심없는 1인 인데 동생이 너무 가고 싶어해서 예약했어요. 결론부터 말 하자면, 세 시간 반이 금방 지나갔다고 느껴질 만큼 재미있고 잘 짜여진 투어 라고 말 할 수 있을 것 같아요. 테니스 스타디움 뿐만 아니라 주변 footy oval, MCG도 방문하여 재미있는 설명도 들었고요. 벤이 진행하는 투어라면 자신있게 추천 드립니다. 마지막엔 스타디움 내에 있는 코트에서 테니스 칠수 있는 기회도 있었어요. 강추 할께요

Amazing tour with Ben who is awesome! - We loved the tour and while it focus mostly on Tennis, we learned about other Australian sports, including Australian football, which my kids loved. Ben was knowledgeable and great with all ages. We enjoyed seeing the Olympic park and the cricket stadium as well as getting to play on the Australian Open courts. We are so glad we did this tour and highly recommend to all tennis enthusiasts!
