Departing from your ship, you'll board a motorcoach for a ride through the bay suburbs of Melbourne as you enter the city itself to see some of its most notable sights.

You'll start your narrated motor tour as you pass some of the city's most influential buildings, including Town Hall, Parliament, and the Old Customs House which is now the home of the Immigration Museum.

You'll pause at the inspiring Shrine of Remembrance for a photo opportunity. The memorial is a permanent and lasting memory to the ANZAC spirit, the mean and women of Victoria who served and those who died in the Great War.

Melbourne is hailed as Australia's 'Garden City', famed for the parks and gardens surrounding it. Your next stop on your tour is the lush Fitzroy Gardens, a fine example of a grand city garden. Stroll within its 64 acres of huge formal garden beds, walking paths, a superb collection of trees and a gorgeous conservatory.
