We arrived in melbourne on the Norwegian Spirit. We were overnighting in Melbourne and hire great private tours for both days. Our first day was a Melbourne city tour.... read more Including Brighton, bathing boxes, city tour. The cathedral, one of the arcades, and then we proceeded out to philip island. At philip island we were treated to penguin priority seating and watch the penguin parade An amazing feat of nature. A must do if you are in the melbourne area!
The next day we proceeded out to Sovereign Hill to see the mining town an tour a ballard.
I cannot express our appreciation enough for our guide Fiona. She was absolutely outstanding. Since this was a private tour, she was flexible to our needs.For example, we are an older group, and need more frequent restroom stops. She safely got us to all our locations and back to the ship. In a timely manner and also gave us a full city tours. Both days( melbourne and ballard). It's too bad that Fiona couldn't be our guide in Sydney as well. If in Melbourne book through great private tours. Ask for Fiona. Thank you Fiona for everything.
