Our guide Nico has a great love and knowledge of Melbourne. In addition to the sites we expected to visit, he also recommended great restaurants, showed us wonderful street art and was generally very friendly and accommodating. If you are lucky enough to have him as your tour guide, you will have a great experience.

Highly recommend! We did two day tours: one for a wildlife park and then penguin parade, another for Yarra valley wine tasting. They were both with Thomas, and they were amazing!! Thomas was accommodating, knowledgeable, professional, and punctual for all our tours. He had great recommendations for food, things to see/do in downtime, etc. He communicated well about what we should bring, like he was able to add a beach stop so he told us to bring bathing suits but also told us to bring clothes for colder weather during the penguin parade. I'm glad he did because the day went for so hot to chilly. He had brought us wine for a beautiful beach sunset drink that day as well, snacks, plenty of cold water, a blanket for the chilly penguin parade, etc. He catered our experiences around what we said we liked. Like I wanted to know about some Australian singers, and he made a Playlist of them for us to listen to! I also wanted to see animals outside the wildlife park so he made an effort to help me find animals in the wild (wallabies, kangaroos, birds, and even added a stop to see megabats)! It was a great tour that was flexible to what you wanted.

Thomas spent 2 days with me and my two friends, he was wonderful and patient and humored us and all of our questions and wants to see wild animals. He helped us pick cool wine spots and we found a wild kangaroo! Before each day he reached out via whatsapp with weather updates and outfit reccomendations. He brought plenty of snacks and water and picked pit great food stops. We would have been so underprepared without his messages. He allowed us to tweak our stops to make the days feel totally customized and special.

Joe was such a fun guide and very knowledgeable. We had a great day exploring Yarra Valley and the wildlife sanctuary with him. We even saw wild kangaroos for the first time!

Spent the day traveling to, and learning about Australia and the Yarra Valley with Marty. After spending several days in the city it was a pleasure to sit back and relax and enjoy the trip. He was engaging, has a great personality and extremely knowledgeable about everything and anything. We had a blast enjoying the scenery, food, drinks and the company!

Such a great trip! Our guide Marlene was informative and made terrific recommendations for our group. Lunch was first rate and a trip to the chocolate factory was spectacular!

Marissa_M

We had an amazing time with our guide, Cate! She planned the day around what we wanted to do/see and we had the best experience. She also provided great recommendations for places to go for dinner/drinks for our last night in Melbourne. It’s 100% worth it to spend the extra and do a private tour with a customized experience vs. a larger tour.
