With only one day for sightseeing, this tour did not disappoint. From the first stop along the side of the road to gaze at kangaroos, to arriving at the 12 Apostles at dusk, Gareth made sure we were well cared for and exceeded our expectations! Highly recommend this group...very knowledgable, professional, and know the area well. Most of the day... More

Had a terrific tour with Jeff.  Got a great overview of the City, some driving some walking, all very well thought out.  Jeff was knowledgable about the City's history and also had great insights on what represented modern Melbourne (like the open street art alleys).  Jeff was able to tailor our tour to focus on the things that interested us...

On our "once in a lifetime" trip to Oz, with only two weeks, we had to choose carefully. We came through Melbourne specifically for the penguins. I researched the many, (many, many) tour options & wasn't particularly thrilled at the thought of a group. I enjoy meeting new people, but didn't want to be held captive to someone else's schedule...

Our experience with MPT was excellent from the time we first began to communicate. Emails were prompt and clear, and our questions were always answered kindly. Our day in Melbourne with John was delightful! He was kind, very informative and intuitive as to what would work for our group (there were four of us). We particularly enjoyed walking around in...

Loved Yarra Valley wine tour with Melbourne Private Tours and Simon. It was awesome and he truly made the day great. All the wineries knew him and treated us like friends.

Had a wonderful, although long, day touring the great ocean road with Neil. Great driver, beautiful tour and had a overall wonderful time. We even saved a Koala walking along the road so that it would not get hit by vehicle traffic. (you can see my photos on MPT website)

As a couple, we had a wonderful, personal, and very informative tour of the city. Our guide, Bruce was professional, comical, very knowledgable and very relaxed. He gave us a lasting impression on this beautiful city and it's equally wonderful people. Many thanks for a super tour. WIth appreciation, Robin + Julie Roberts

We had a private tour discovering great places in the countryside! The idea was to visit some wineries, but our guide had so great knowledge of the area that we encouraged him to show us some cheese and bread artisans and we had great supper that day :) great custom tours, with great attention. a must!

As a couple, we had a full day tour of the Mornington Peninsula, with Simon as our dedicated guide for the day. The day was well planned; once in the peninsula we spent the morning getting a guided tour of a recently established olive grove / vineyard/ farm shop (Green Olive)' followed by a cookery lesson (making sausages!) with Herman...
