Excellent tour of some historic sports venues in Melbourne. Kel explained the history behind some of the venues which hosted 'firsts' in Melbourne and Australian sports as well as the info about the better known stadia. We also got to drive round most of the F1 track albeit somewhat slower than the race cars. The second half of the trip was less sports orientated, which suited my wife, and an excellent tour of South Yarra, St Kilda, Brighton and South Melbourne Market. Again supported by lots of interesting facts. We also got to walk round a couple of areas to get the feels of these Melbourne suburbs. All in all a great trip with Kel and Mel.

We absolutely recommend this trip to everyone visiting Melbourne for the first time. They have done a thorough job of explaining the history of Melbourne especially sports. We visited the MCG, Rod Laver stadium, rode on the F1 circuit (Albert Park), and also grabbed a coffee at the Melbourne market. We enjoyed traveling with them and saw how passionate they were to share everything they know about the place. Thanks Melissa and Kel for a fantastic time! Cheers Kavya and Karnaveer

We had a private tour with Kel and Melissa and it was just like a day with good friends. They are proud of their city and it shows. They created an itinerary that included everything we asked for and more. It was a jam packed day that included stops at the Brighton bathing boxes, a drive past various sporting venues, a visit to the main highlights of the city and a lunch stop at The Stables. We were treated to commentary on the history of the city and enjoyed every minute of the day. There could not have been a better way to experience Melbourne, and we recommend Kel and Melissa to anyone who wishes to have the best tour ever.

Wow! What a fantastic day. Kel and Melissa did such wonderful job providing an excellent orientation to the beautiful city of Melbourne. Kel’s knowledge of the history and facts was so interesting. We would highly recommend this tour to overseas visitors and locals alike.

Thank you for packing into 3 hours so much insight and fun for the 6 of us.  The sports venues, suburbs and bathing boxes would have held much less significance had we done the sightseeing on our own. It would have taken us way more time and effort to take in all these sights on our own too. As foodies, we enjoyed the oysters and crayfish at the South Melbourne Market you brought us to! I'd definitely recommend your tour for anyone who's been to the city and wants to see and taste more. Above all, we appreciate your warmth and friendliness.

Kel was amazing, his knowledge was so informative and he was easy to talk with. We had a fabulous time on this tour and have already recommended it to others. Thankyou for a wonderful afternoon Kel.

My first trip to Australia couldn't have started in a better way... Melbourne, was the first city I visited. On the first day I did the Melbourne Sporting Icons and the Bayside, our guide Kel was a delight, he was on time, the mini ban was brand new and very comfortable. He gave us a great tour around the sport facilities and explained the history of them, we drove on the race track of the Melbourne grand prix, then we walked around St.Kilda's Central Business District. also drove around the beautiful neighborhoods & also went to see the Brighton Bathing Boxes which was fun.... and finally we went to the South Melbourne Market which was great, we had coffee and was able to spend time talking to Kel about the country and the city of Melbourne. kel was very informative, very friendly and caring. He wanted to make sure we had a good experience and we sure did. I would highly recommend them. My experience was absolutely a pleasure.
