City Tours

City sightseeing Melbourne with Great Private Tours takes in the iconic sights and scenes of this vibrant city.

We love showcasing our city and will allow you to experience it like a local Melbournian. Walk some of the famous laneways and visit the cafes, taking in the coffee aromas amid bustling traders and shoppers. We’ll show you the city’s significant landmarks and buildings, and share the rich history that has made Melbourne the most liveable city in the world for the last seven years in a row.

Note that our 1/2 day tour can only be booked in combination with one of our other tours.
