Outstanding Tour - Must do it! - Wow what a way to spend a special occasion. Ben and Kathy were outstanding guides. We are Melburnians from 50 years ago and it was great to tour some of the sporting icons that we never did when we lived here. AO and the MCG - Would highly recommend that you do this tour. Now we have to come back to see the Tennis and AFL match. Many thanks again.

Melbourne sports tour - Ben was amazing, he really knew his stuff which was fantastic for my partner Oli. I felt he could have gone on for hours and we still would have listened. Really second to none knowledge and we can’t recommend enough!

Behind the scenes sports tour for all ages! - My 9 year old son and I joined Ben’s tour and loved every minute of it! Ben’s sporting knowledge is amazing and he was able to tailor it to all ages keeping the tour completely engaged throughout. The highlights for us was playing tennis at the Australian Open courts and a behind the scenes tour of the MCG. I thoroughly recommend this tour for all ages!

The best way to experience Melbourne's Sports Precinct - Ben is great. Brilliant tour. Heaps of sports knowledge delivered in a relaxed approachable way. Ben went over and above to ensure that my uncle visiting from South Africa had a one of a kind experience. Can't recommend highly enough.
