Itinerary:

Valid for 01APR23-31MAR25:
An Australian Luxury Escapes vehicle will pick you up from your hotel to commence the Half Day Private tour. We start this experience by travelling through the government precinct admiring the Treasury Building, Windsor Hotel, State Parliament House, Royal Exhibition Building and Melbourne Museum. This leads us to a couple of the inner northern suburbs. Fitzroy's Brunswick Street is very bohemian with a vast array of pubs, bars, restaurants, record shops and local designer shops. Carlton's Lygon Street is the Italian precinct and famous for its coffee and cakes, spaghetti restaurants, pizzerias and Ferraris. Morning tea will be amongst the glorious colours and smells of the Botanical Gardens. Magnificent expanses of lush green lawn slope elegantly towards ornamental lakes graced by elegant black swans and waterfowl; massive trees cast boughs of shade over manicured garden beds. This is a true haven within a busy city and a peaceful way to finish off your time with us. We then drive past the sporting precinct that became famous with the 1956 Olympic Games and now roars to the cheers of Aussie Rules crowds each weekend. See the nearby Rod Laver Tennis Centre that hosts the Australian Tennis Open each year as well as the world famous MCG which has hosted most of the major events that have come to this city. Travelling westwards we pass through the beautiful Victorian terraces of Albert Park, to the historic Station Pier in Port Melbourne. This was an arrival point of many of Melbourne's European immigrants. Driving along Port Phillip Bay admire locals walking dogs, rollerblading, cycling and kite boarding before arriving at remarkable St Kilda. Situated on one of the most picturesque points of the Bay this pretty bay side suburb is one of the main tourist destinations renowned for its sandy beaches, music venues, restaurants and cafe lifestyle. Here we enjoy breathtaking views of Melbourne's city skyline, West Gate Bridge and the Dandenong Ranges from an historic vantage point. We then drive through St Kilda's funky Acland and Fitzroy Streets before entering the Australian Formula One Grand Prix track at Albert Lake. Pretend you're in the driver’s seat and motoring at 200 miles per hour. 'Safely' we drive back into the city where you can enjoy the rest of the day at your leisure.
