Discover Melbourne & Victoria with Full & Half Day Private Tours

There’s no better way to experience Melbourne and the beautiful state of Victoria than with a private, fully-tailored tour designed around your interests, pace, and schedule. Whether you’re visiting Melbourne for the first time, returning to explore deeper, or you’re a local planning a memorable day out, our Full and Half Day Private Tours offer the perfect blend of comfort, flexibility, and personalised service. From iconic landmarks and coastal drives to hidden laneways, wineries, wildlife encounters, and charming regional towns — your day is completely about you.

Our private tours operate on a door-to-door service model, meaning we collect you from your hotel, home, or preferred location and return you when the day is done. You don’t need to worry about driving, navigating, parking, or group schedules. Simply relax, sit back, and enjoy the journey while your friendly, knowledgeable driver-guide takes care of every detail.


Tailored Experiences — Your Day, Your Way

Every traveller is different — which is why our Melbourne and Victoria private tours are custom-built around your interests. Whether you love nature, photography, culture, shopping, food, wine, or coastal scenery, we’ll help craft the ideal itinerary. Our guides are locals who know the best scenic viewpoints, quiet cafés, local secrets, and must-see highlights — so you get a richer, more authentic experience than a standard group tour.

Some popular tour options include:

  • Melbourne City Discovery Tour
    Explore Federation Square, the Yarra River, gardens, historic architecture, colourful street art laneways, boutiques, and vibrant multicultural neighbourhoods.

  • Great Ocean Road & Twelve Apostles
    One of the world’s most beautiful coastal drives, with sweeping ocean views, rainforest walks, wildlife spotting, and dramatic limestone cliffs.

  • Phillip Island Penguin Parade & Wildlife
    See the world-famous Little Penguins, visit koala reserves, and enjoy rugged coastline scenery.

  • Yarra Valley Wine & Gourmet Experiences
    Sample world-class wines, local produce, cheese, chocolate, and meet artisan producers.

    Relax by the bay, visit charming seaside towns, markets, beaches, and wineries.

  • Dandenong Ranges Nature & Puffing Billy Train
    Enjoy tranquil forests, mountain scenery, gardens, and heritage steam train rides.

And of course — these are just examples. You choose what matters most to you, and we design the rest.


Full-Day & Half-Day Tour Options

We understand that not every traveller wants the same pace. That’s why you can choose between:

Half-Day Private Tours

Perfect if you’re short on time, want a relaxed city highlights tour, or prefer a morning or afternoon trip. These tours usually run for 4–5 hours, offering the ideal way to see key locations without feeling rushed.

Full-Day Private Tours

Ideal for regional adventures like the Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, or the Yarra Valley. Full-day tours run for 8–10 hours, giving you the flexibility to stop, explore, take photos, enjoy lunch, and truly immerse yourself in the day.

Whichever option you choose, you’ll travel in comfort with a professional driver-guide dedicated to making your experience memorable.


Comfort, Convenience & Personal Service

From the moment your tour begins, you’ll notice the difference a private tour experience makes. You don’t share the vehicle with strangers. You don’t follow rigid schedules. You don’t rush through attractions. Instead, you travel at your own pace, choosing where to spend more time and where to simply pass through.

Our vehicles are clean, modern, air-conditioned, and comfortable. Your guide is there not only to drive, but also to provide local knowledge, answer questions, and ensure your day runs smoothly. Whether you’re a solo traveller, couple, family, group of friends, or corporate guest, we shape the experience to suit you.

We also welcome:

  • Families with children
  • Elderly travellers
  • Special occasions
  • Photography enthusiasts
  • Cruise ship passengers
  • International visitors

If you have accessibility needs or special requests, just let us know — our goal is always to make your tour enjoyable and inclusive.


See More, Stress Less

Exploring Victoria independently can involve long drives, complex navigation, toll roads, and unfamiliar traffic conditions. With our private tours, you can forget about all of that. We handle everything — including route planning, timing, parking, and logistics — so you can fully enjoy the scenery, stories, and experiences along the way.

Because our tours are private, we can also adjust your itinerary on the day depending on weather, preferences, or new ideas that come up. Want to stop for an extra coffee? See a viewpoint again? Spend longer in a winery? No problem — it’s your day.


Local Knowledge & Authentic Experiences

Our guides live here — and love what they do. That means you’ll hear local stories, cultural insights, and travel tips you won’t find in guidebooks. We aim to go beyond the standard tourist route, introducing you to local gems, small businesses, and scenic stops that many visitors miss.

You won’t just see Melbourne and Victoria — you’ll experience them like a local.


Perfect for Special Occasions

Our Full and Half Day Private Tours are ideal for:

  • Birthdays
  • Anniversaries
  • Romantic escapes
  • Relaxed getaways
  • Photography trips
  • Shore excursions
  • Family days out

Create memories, celebrate moments, and enjoy time together — without stress.


Door-to-Door Service

We provide pickup and drop-off from hotels, homes, airports, cruise terminals, and major accommodation locations across Melbourne. From the moment the tour starts until you return, everything is taken care of for you.
