Pat C was an absolute cracker. True Aussie tour guide, you couldn’t ask for anything better. I got way more out of the day then they advertised, with close to 10 stops. The whole experience was about 13 hours. I got my tickets from Red Balloon, but hide and seek sell their own too. Amazing views, stops, and experiences. I would recommend anyone that has a spare day in Melbourne to book in with these guys. They provided one of the best memories over my holiday.
