Great tour! - Excellent commentary by Dave. Damien was also a big help. The tour went by quickly and all the sites we saw were relevant. I enjoyed it greatly. The bus was very comfortable even for a big guy like me. It was raining the entire time, it did not put a damper on our spirits.

4 hour tour - Our guide’s name was Bluey. He was both very informative and entertaining. Definitely take this tour if you are short on time. It gives you a great idea of places in Melbourne that you would like to explore more.

A Memorable Tour of City Melbourne - Bob was a terrific tour guide, he was knowledgeable & I learnt alot about Melourne. A 'Ferrari' zip around Albert Park circuit. A pause for thought at the Shrine of Rememberance & told to take a look inside the ANZ back at the beautiful architecture. Best 3 hour tour that was extremely entertaining.

Nice selection of places to see. - We enjoyed the tour and so informative. Bob (our tour guide) did a good job. It is only that we failed to visit one place due to the other participant who exceeded the allotted time causing delays.
