"We had a great time, touring Melbourne with Ben seeing the secret arcades and alleys that we never would have found without him. He was very knowledgeable and had cute stories. He was a very professional and considerate guide. He worked with us to accommodate times and customized the tour to a pre-determined’must-see’ list. We even got to taste several yummy chocolates and had an incredible hot chocolate.
At the end, then made sure that we saw everything we wanted to and offered us suggestions for what else we needed to see in restaurants
Thank you so much ben for showing us your beautiful city Lisa "
"Julie knows so much about Melbourne and was a wonderful guide. She took us to great spots. The Victoria Market was amazing. She was super helpful working around my gluten allergy and still providing excellent food options. "

Best ‘unlocal’ experience with Ben!
"Ben proved to be an excellent guide and storyteller with a most unique perspective. He was attentive and engaging for both of our tours. He was able to immerse us in Melbourne lore and showed us areas we would never have found on our own. "
"We took the Great Ocean Road 12 hour private tour with Ben, what a great experience. We saw everything we could have hoped to see!
Ben was a wonderful guide, very accommodating and informative!"
"Julie was a great guide. She showed us the highlights of the center city in Melbourne. She knew the history of the city and ensured we got to see the highlights in our time with her. Thanks for a great tour!! "
"What a fantastic experience! While there should not have been an issue with finding the starting point, Ben came to where we were to start the tour. It was a tour later in the day (5:30) which means some ( just a few) places to see were closed. However, Ben provided as much information as possible about everything around, with great insight and a bit of humor. He even got us to engage with the city in an interesting way.
We saw a lot, learned a lot, and highly recommend the experience at the start of your time in Melbourne as it can inform what you do and where you go while there.
Thanks Ben!"
"We met Jie at a lunch cal eatery. She took us to many local places. We had a wonderful time learning about the culture in Australia. She took us to some interesting pubs. One of which we had dinner at. Young & Jackson. The food was amazing. Highly recommend this place for dinner. We loved Bellinis as well. "
