    Living Legends as part of Show Me Melbourne Tours
    My husband and I did the Living Legends tour with Owner Jess. An ideal option if you have no transport in Melbourne. We were conveniently picked up from our hotel. On boarding we realised we were the only participants. This did not however deter Jess from the exercise.. She said that she loves taking this tour...just to see the horses for herself! Very comfy transport in a Mercedes van...with our own personal tour guide! On arrival at the homestead we could have a look around...then had a lovely Devonshire tea prior to the actual tour starting. You join the "Living Legends" tour with loads of carrots and....buggy transport if needed. Otherwise it is an easy walk from paddock to paddock engaging with the likes of Apache Cat, Brew(almost 30!),The Cleaner, Bohemeth amongst many others! If you have a love for horses... it is a hoot. All questions can be answered by either Jess or the Legends tour guide. We thoroughly enjoyed it and came away with some great pics. Our bonus was meeting the delightful Kate(volunteer) and her Rottweiler who offered her assistance in calling Bohemeth to the fence. He and many of the others come for the dog experience...and her liquorice!!!! On completion of the tour Jess returned us to the city...and even dropped us off in an area that we requested. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jess and her tour company for this...and any of the other tours...that sounded great.

    Hidden bars, cocktails and a fun night out!
    We really enjoyed this tour. The meet up location was easy to find and the bars were all very close. The guide was very polite, informative and friendly. The three bars we visited were all very different and definitely hidden. My only criticism was that for the tour cost I feel more food and perhaps another cocktail should be included. I did like that the guide had inside knowledge and could recommend cocktails. The food that we did receive was delicious. It would've been nice to visit another bar, three was great but four would've been even better. We really enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it.

    Ballarat Private Tour - Sovereign Hill
    Jess provided a excellent tour of Sovereign Hill and Ballarat surrounds going the extra mile to show the old architecture of Ballarat. We could not fault the tour Jess's efforts and knowledge that she passed on to two older Australians already well versed on our history. We learnt a lot. Jess was a safe driver and always prompt Jess also gave us space for our own appropriate amount of time without prompting. Well done Jess

    GinFlight
    We had a fabulous day on our Gin Flight. Discovered places I’d never heard of and tasted some beautiful Gin. A relaxing day with a beautiful lunch provided. Our guide was friendly and it was a lovely way to spend time reconnecting with friends after so long. Lots of laughs and drinks. We honestly didn’t want to come home. I couldn’t recommend this tour more highly.

    Gin flight
    We went on the gin flight and were pleasantly surprised and impressed by the places we went to. I couldn't have discovered these gems myself. Great food, great company and of course fabulous gin! We weren't rushed and had ample time to relax and enjoy our surrounds.

    Hidden Bars Tour
    I thought I knew a lot of the bars in Melbourne, but I do not. Behind the most inconspicuous doors, in quiet laneways are those intimate bars that we search out for taking someone special or just show off to your friends that you know the hip places!! If you want to know these places, then this is the tour for you. Loved learning about how the bar came into existence (Melbourne has a very chequered history), not to mention the delicious cocktails. Tour guide was very knowledgeable about the bars and Melbourne in general. Great night.

    MCG and Brewery tour
    After a technical hitch in February we had rebooked our Sporting tour with brewery tasting for today. And can I say what a great day we both had. Tamara our driver was very knowledgeable as was Jess. The flemington race course was outstanding with the great sunny day. A trip around part of the Albert Park F1 track in the Hiace at full noise lol. Then off to the MCG for a sporting tour with Rod our guide who was great and showed and explained everything to us. Then a very nice lunch at a pub in Richmond followed by a beer tasting. A most enjoyable day and we are looking forward to booking another tour in the future. Thank you guys for a very memorable day. We highly recommend this tour.

    Melbourne Outlet Shopping Tour
    Outlets were great. Traffic not so great. Seemed to backtrack a few times. Lunch venue was nice and quiet. Food hit the spot.

    Good value for money.
    We got to visit many small outlets we would not have known about. Sifted through a lot of overpriced stock at times but were able to find some genuine bargains. Well worth the time and money and would book on this tour again in the future. A added bonus to get a tiki tour around Melbourne at the same time while driving from outlet to outlet.

    Great day shopping
    My friend and I enjoyed the day and the variety of shops we went to. Tracey our guide was very friendly and helpful. The Bonds shop was great as a lot of the sale stock had a further 40% off. My friend got some good bargains at the TS shop and we both got great shoe bargains at Diana Ferrari. Lunch was tasty. The only thing we found was that some of the staff in the shops weren't that friendly. The staff at Hilliers chocolate were an exception being very friendly and helpful and we enjoyed a much needed coffee there too. Overall it was a great day and were pleased we did this at the start of our trip as it meant we could go to the DFO at South Wharf and Spencer St outlet and carry on our shopping. We would do this tour again and recommend it.

    Shopping outlet tour
    While in Melbourne we booked a shopping tour through The Outlet Tours. Was not overly impressed with the choice of outlets and boutiques we went to. Thought we were going to DFO’s. Most of the boutiques were overly priced. Our driver Tracey was lovely and did a good job chauffeuring us around. Was a good way to see the city but can’t say that I would book one of these hours again.

My Wife and I were lucky to be the only passengers on the Live Music Melbourne Bus Tour.

We found our host/driver to be Fun, Informative and Friendly.

The tour is very relaxed and casual with little time pressures to keep moving on.

We were disappointed that we couldn’t get into the band rooms at the Corner Hotel, Richmond and the Gershwin Room at the Espy, St Kilda for a behind the scenes look.
