The most amazing bus tour of Melbourne - I'm travelling solo so booked this as way to get an overview of Melbourne, learn and see a few things, and meet a few people along the way! It was wonderful on all levels. Our driver/guide Perry was fantastic - knowledgeable, very likeable, funny and really professional. And I loved seeing how all the different areas of Melbourne fitted together - Brunswick, Compton, St Kilda, West Melbourne, Brighton Beach. South Melbourne and the central city. Plus getting to know the history of each area eg Compton being largely Italian after the wave of immigration post WW2 - ditto Brunswick's Greek heritage. So thank you Perry for being a great host. I thoroughly recommend this tour. Laurence

Melbourne glimpses in a morning - Russell made our Laneways, Bays and Suburbs Small Group Bus Tour fun, informative and friendly. Despite previous trips to Melbourne we still learnt new facts and locations through his local knowledge. This 3 hour trip was a great way to get a good overview of the city in a short time.

A great way to familiarise yourself with Melbourne - A fantastic way to start our holiday. We did the tour having not visited Melbourne before, and we found the tour fantastic to get a general idea of where things are. Ray was a fantastic guide and his passion for Melbourne is obvious as you hear him talking about the history and present of many locations around the city. There was no rushing and the whole experience was a very pleasant way to start our trip. We used the information we gained from the tour to plan out our destinations to visit during our stay. Very recommended to anyone wanting to know more about Melbourne.
