What to do in Melbourne?

Question

I'm 20 yrs old going to Melbourne for a week in July, any suggestions on what to do?

Answer 1

Go to the Melbourne Visitor Centre in Federation Square, and ask at the counter. Tell them what your interested in and they can give you leaflets, walks, discount vouchers etc. and book any tours if you wish to do so.

A quick overview of things to do are:

Dracula's

Melbourne Gaol

Night Time tour of all the hidden bars

Chocolate tour

Great Ocean Road tour

Sovereign Hill Tour

Wine Tour

Neighbours tour

Visit Eureka Skydeck and do The Edge

The city has great architecture, parks, exhibitions etc.

Cinemas

Theatre

Gigs - magazine comes out every thursday- has everything that is on in the city and suburbs - ask at the counter again- think its called Impress

Try the Belgium Beer bar at Eureka Tour

Visit the Crown Casino complex

Visit the MCG, Roda Laver Arena and Telstra Dome if interested in sport

Go shopping - Bridge Rd, Collingwwod, Southern Cross Station DFO, Melbourne Central, Bourke Street, Collins St,GPO Building etc etc

Take the free shuttle bus wed- sun to Chadstone shopping centre

Walk through the arcades and lanes. Great little cafes, shops etc.

Lots more do to - just a few ideas - have fun!

Go see the Footy at the MCG. Footy is Australia's national sport and was first played near  the MCG. It is the religion of Melbourne and the MCG its cathedral

Then go down to StKilda and drop into the espy to catch a band

Answer 4

Sight-see, immerse yourself in their culture. You can approach the tourism counter at the airport (assuming you are flying in) and get a map. Or you could log on to the internet by typing "Melbourne, Australia" and you'll get lots of ideas.
