      Excellent food your
      Julie knows so much about Melbourne and was a wonderful guide. She took us to great spots. The Victoria Market was amazing. She was super helpful working around my gluten allergy and still providing excellent food options.

      Ben the best. ‘Un local’ Local Guide
      Ben proved to be an excellent guide and storyteller with a most unique perspective. He was attentive and engaging for both of our tours. He was able to immerse us in Melbourne lore and showed us areas we would never have found on our own.

      Was not very informative. Lack of information and history. Not very knowledgeable. She brought politics up.

      Amazing tour guide
      Julie was amazing - so professional and was able to communicate well with the three of us older people and a young person of 23 ! So much interesting information about Melbourne which I had no idea of ! Julie speaks excellent Italian which of course made the tour so special for my family from Italy !

      Bus great on time and clean
      We hired a bus from COACHIRE and took a trip to Yarra valley for lunch at a pub and a stop at the chocolate factory..The bus was clean the driver polite and helpful .Hiring the bus was quick and easy, Stuart did all the work to make sure our trip was good, Would recommend this bus company if you are planning a trip. Air con was so affective on a hot day.

      Special tour with a special guy!
      We booked the tour to experience Melbourne like a local would do and that's what we got. We had a fun and entertaining time with Andrew, who made us laugh all the time. Even after just two hours, we felt like we've known him for a long time. His tour made us definitely want to come back to Melbourne and not just get a glimpse like we did due to our short stopover. We'd definitely recommend Andrew if you want to have a local and passionate view of Melbourne's neighbourhoods and are not interested that much in the city's history.

    Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
    Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
    When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
    Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    What a fantastic experience! While there should not have been an issue with finding the starting point, Ben came to where we were to start the tour. It was a tour later in the day (5:30) which means some ( just a few) places to see were closed. However, Ben provided as much information as possible about everything around, with great insight and a bit of humor. He even got us to engage with the city in an interesting way. We saw a lot, learned a lot, and highly recommend the experience at the start of your time in Melbourne as it can inform what you do and where you go while there. Thanks Ben!
