Visiting Melbourne for a few days, never been before, whats the best things to do? |
Travel Info Visiting around mid-june, activities preferably not too expensive but some ideas to look into would be good, thanks! Travel Tips Take in a tour of the MCG and attend a footy match there.. what do you like ? as in are you interested in the history of the place, the arts, the scenic trips? do you want to stay in the city or are you planing to travel out a little... I was born in N.S.W .. but i live in the far outer suburbs of Melbourne but love going into the city to explore. you could take the Melbourne ghost tour .. which is a couple of hours walking around the city at night and learning a little of the history and the *spooky* occurances that have been reported over the years... Go to Queen Victoria Market , which incidently is built on a cemetry where many bodies are still buried beneath the car-park . (one of many built over cemetries) Melbourne has a lot of beautiful old examples of architecture from the gold rush days. You could take a drive along the Great Ocean Road.. which was built by Returned Service Men of World War One and it gives you a beautiful perspective of the coast line. Go out to the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley.. take a ride on Puffing Billy, Go to Healesville Sanctuary I'll come back with some links for you.
