Grand Melbourne
Gray Line Day Tour 397

Combine our morning Melbourne City tour with our afternoon Melbourne Highlights tour and discover Melbourne in a day; contrasting architecture, arcades and laneways, Queen Victoria Market, gardens and trendy bayside suburbs.

Our Grand Melbourne full day tour is the most comprehensive way to discover our beautiful city with its luscious gardens, new and old architecture, hidden laneways and arcades and shopping time at Queen Victoria Market. In the afternoon, we'll show you a different side of Melbourne that takes in the bayside suburbs of Port Melbourne, St Kilda and Brighton Beach to take that special photo of our iconic bathing boxes.
