Travel Review Blog

Melbourne is by far Australia’s best city.  Less smoggy and congested than Sydney, it’s thoroughly pleasant to walk around.

Efficient tram service means it’s easy to get places - there are tram attendants helping people get the right tram too and it’s digital times displayed in the city centre at tram stops.  Trams typically run till 12.30AM most places.

Weather is great, at this time of year 21-23C.  Eating is groovey too, you will find lots of sushi places for take out, and some pleasant restaurants  - particularly in the Crown Casino.  You can also check out Melbourne restaurant reviews for other upmarket eateries.

The Visitors centre in Melbourne is extremely helpful, and should you wish to book penguin viewing tour or Neighbours soap opera tour - or even pick up a walking guide, this is the place to go.

You can easily walk round Melbourne city centre without transport, and I would advise this as you definitely see more.
