Welcome to the eclectic and happening city of Melbourne
With a modern cosmopolitan appeal, combined with elegant and impressive architecture, Melbourne is full of hidden laneways and arcades that provide endless hours of entertainment and intrigue. Federation Square links the beautiful Yarra Valley riverside precinct with the heart of the city centre. Intertwined throughout Melbourne are vibrant boutique producers, multitudes of restaurants serving exquisite cuisines, and an eclectic collection of cafes catering to Melbourne’s reverent coffee culture.
Melbourne has a restless energy, urging travellers to explore every inch of this wonderful cities Australian urban style. Uncover the nightlife on an after dark walking tour, view the wonderful galleries, enjoy the year-round festivals, or time your holiday to coincide with the annual Australian Open Tennis tournament. Whatever your interests, Melbourne is sure to have it, hidden amongst its laneways waiting to be discovered or proudly displayed.

What do our experts say about Melbourne?
As a Melbourne local one of my tips is to visit the South Melbourne Market instead of the Queen Vic and make sure you go hungry! Melbourne is a cultural and creative hub with a vibrant and incredible food scene, art, music, sport and more. It’s far less about the sites and attractions and more about getting involved and being immersed in local culture and life.
The Tailor has a well-earned reputation for creating authentic, luxury Australian experiences. To be a part of a team who are equally passionate about this and working for guests who want to experience this, really makes this a dream job.
Experience more of less. Resist the urge to treat your trip to Australia as though it’s once in a lifetime. Slow down and enjoy. Trust me, you’ll be back!
