Great Job! Had a great time

William_S, Mar 2024
What a great introduction to Melbourne. She did a great job describing the history and culture. Be aware this is a walking tour with steps if there is issue with that. Not a bus tour.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thanks for your review, William! It's great to hear that you loved your tour. We have contacted Viator to let them know that they have left out the information that it is a walking tour, and hope they will update the description soon.

adapted our tour to what was best about Melbourne and what we most wanted to see

Bruce_F, Mar 2024
We had a small group so our guide adapted our tour to what was best about Melbourne and what we most wanted to see.. She showed us the sights that many tour guides do not share. We also had a bonfire Australian lunch.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thanks for taking the time to leave such a lovely review Bruce! We're so pleased you enjoyed your tour and hope the rest of your time in Australia was just as wonderful.
