Amazing tour with Ben who is awesome! - We loved the tour and while it focus mostly on Tennis, we learned about other Australian sports, including Australian football, which my kids loved. Ben was knowledgeable and great with all ages. We enjoyed seeing the Olympic park and the cricket stadium as well as getting to play on the Australian Open courts. We are so glad we did this tour and highly recommend to all tennis enthusiasts!

Thanks for a wonderful day!!! - We had an amazing day with Cathy today ! Doing this excursion was something we were so looking forward too but thought it might not happen when our cruise boat was delayed by 2 hours. However, Cathy and Ben made adjustments and we ended up having a wonderful day full of memories to cherish! Cathy is fun, energetic and full of interesting stories about the AO from personal experience. Big thanks for making it happen!!

Melbourne Park Tennis Sporting Experience - This was a very nice tour. Ben did a great job explaining the history of the sports park. We loved the opportunity to play some tennis at the Australian Open site. We all enjoyed it.

Must do for a sports fan. - Bens tour was totally worth the time. Always important to have a good attitude and Ben has plenty of it :-) Good mix of history and culture and some play interspersed. If you are a sports buff this is totally something to do. It’s not just tennis, cricket and footie too. While it’s professional Ben isn’t going to be looking at time and is on the contrary very understanding about each one’s asks including how to get around after the tour!!

An outstanding tour. A must in Melbourne. - One of the best tours I've ever done. Ben was tremendous, providing such fun, concise & engaging info. The structure of how it was organised was brilliant, as is the sporting complex. Even if you aren't a sports fan you can learn and feel the significance of where you walk around. Such a shame the weather was so bad that I couldn't have a hit on an Australian Open court 🥲 but as was the organisation that we still managed some tennis indoors. 10/10.

Amazing tour for tennis lovers - The tour with Ben was amazing. He mixed a lot of personal stories into the facts. That made it really special. Furthermore, we enjoyed also taking some photos in front of the Melbourne court. As a tennis player it is special to save this as a memory. I found it very interesting that everyone can book any time (excluding Australian Open phase and preparation) the courts of Melbourne Park for less money. Just have a look at tennisworld. In addition to tennis sports we learned a lot about Aborigines in sports, Australian football and cricket.

Great experience - We had a great experience booking this tour. The reason for the booking was our great interest in the Australian Open, but we also learned a lot about other Australian sports. Ben was a great tour guide who knew a lot and made the tour enjoyable.
