More than just a sports tour !

K_B, Feb 2026

Would recommend this for everyone not just sports fans although that is obviously the main focus. Neil our guide provided us with a wealth of information about the history of Melbourne as well as its wide and varied sports. Highlight for me was the MCG but I saw and learned about so much more than just cricket.

Excellent tour of Melbourne sports venues.

David_G, Jul 2023

What an excellent experience this was. Neil the tour guide has an immense amount of knowledge about the sports venues in Melbourne, even those not on the tour. And a big kudos for still running the tour with only one participant i.e. me. A lot of organisations would have cancelled so for this to still run was very much appreciated.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hi David, thanks for such a great review! We're so pleased you enjoyed it and thrilled that we were able to run it for you. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and have passed it on to Neil, who is also very grateful.
