Travel

Go Explore Melbourne is the ultimate tour guide in a box! Whatever interests you about Melbourne - whether it be museums, architecture, gardens, sport, shopping, kid-friendly places, coffee or cake - each card suggests various pit stops related to a theme that will interest locals and travellers alike. Designed in a range of bright and attractive colours, each card features a themed tour on one side and a map pinpointing the pit stops on the other. The maps are a feature in themselves, with a modern design and great illustrations. Tours are designed to last around three hours (of course, the time involved depends on how long you linger in each place) and include one foodie stop. This means you can select one tour card if you have limited time, choose a couple of tour cards for your day's itinerary, or select a few cards and pick out places from each to visit. Even with a few cards in tow, their small and light format makes them easy to carry as you discover the city's secrets. Sample themed tours: Melbourne; New Gold Mountain (Chinatown); Rag traders & Runways (Chapel Street, South Yarra); Live, Love Italian (Lygon Street, Carlton) and Melbourne 4 Kids.
