Best Sightseeing Tours in Melbourne

 

Melbourne, at the head of Port Phillip Bay, is Australia's second largest city and the capital of the south-eastern state of Victoria.Serving as Australia’s undisputed cultural capital, Melbourne is bursting with Victorian-era architecture, famed cafés, great bars and restaurants, extensive shopping, museums, galleries, theatres, and large parks and gardens.Melbourne is famous for being capable of showing 'four seasons in one day' and has a temperate climate with distinct seasons and usually mild weather. Melbourne is the third-driest capital city in Australia with half of Sydney's rainfall (at 600mm) and is good to visit year-round. Days in Summer have an average high of 26°C, though days above 35°C occur sporadically as it is the warmest season with the lowest rainfall (and fewest rainy days).Flagstaff Gardens is a top spot for a picnic. Originally known as Burial Hill, these gardens in the heart of the city were the site of Melbourne's first cemetery, where eight of the city’s early settlers were buried. If that doesn't deter you, grab a picnic from the Queen Victoria Market and pull up a patch of grass beside workers on their lunch break. There are BBQ facilities, tennis courts, a rose garden and trees more than 100 years old. There are also plenty of possums about, but don't feed them.

The city drops away suddenly just east of Spring Street in East Melbourne, giving way to Melbourne’s beautiful backyard, Fitzroy Gardens. The park's stately avenues are lined with English elms, flowerbeds, expansive lawns, fountains and a creek. There's also a playground with a dragon slide. Other attractions include the miniature model Tudor Village, a gift from a London pensioner to thank Melburnians for sending food to Britain during WWII (there’s a matching village in London’s Vauxhall Park), and Aussie artist Ola Cohn’s kooky carved Fairies' Tree, a 300-year-old stump embellished in the 1930s with fairies, pixies, kangaroos, and possums.

With today's spots you can quickly apply them on most textiles without ever wanting a needle and thread. Thankfully having the capability to put them with a hot iron means your hands aren't going to get tender and it's easier and quicker to do.
