How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
The kind citizens of Melbourne obviously had you in mind whilst developing their beautiful, sunshine-filled metropolis - why else does this astounding city offer everything you could possibly wish for on a family trip?
Melbourne is the capital of all things art and culture in Aus, and once you’ve thrown in some beaches, farmers’ markets full of good, wholesome food, and the local wildlife, you’ve got everything you’d need to keep kids of any age entertained.
Your little ones could dance themselves silly at the Camouflage Disco or take an Aboriginal Heritage Walk through the Botanical Gardens.
Maybe your tribe’s vibe is more ocean than the city, so you could head to a beach-side suburb where they can bodyboard to their heart’s content - one neighborhood we have in mind even has a vintage theme park, so even big kids (we mean you, parents) can join in on the fun!
The point is, whatever your family’s style, there’s a Melbourne to suit, and your local Melbourne host can’t wait to share that with you!
