5.00What a wonderful start to our Melbourne adventure, where the Boxing Day Test was at the center of our trip. Our tour guide, Tamara was an excellent host/tour guide. Tamara's knowledge and passion for all things sport, particularly the information sounding Melbourne's ongoing capacity to host domestic and international sporting events and in depth knowledge of Melbourne history made this tour a highlight of our trip. We were fortunate to catch both the Australian and English test teams practicing for the upcoming test, tour the MCG in the lead up the most anticipated test on the Australian summer of cricket calendar, drive the Albert Park F1 track with photos on pole position and discover the home of the Australian Open, several Melbourne centric AFL clubs, the home of the Melbourne Storm and other iconic sporting locations throughout Melbourne. All of this was the precursor to the tour of the MCG, entry into the Australian Sporting Museum including the newly opened Shane Warne exhibit and a wonderful lunch with the grounds of the MCG. A wonderful day out for all four us avid sports lovers covering most if not all sports that Queenslanders love. Thanks Tamara for an informative, welcoming and thorough tour, so warm and caring to ensure that we had a great time, working behind the scenes to ensure that we were able to see everything on the day. A true credit to Melbourne Sports Tours. to anyone visiting Melbourne who has a love for sport, a must do during your holiday.
