Join Isabel Simpson, one of Melbourne's most passionate cultural and social historians, for an exclusive evening in one of the world's great Victorian cities. Isabel's extensive local knowledge will be a highlight of your tour.
Isabel will relate the story and history of marvelous Melbourne and, as you tour by coach through the stunning tree-lined streets of the city, she will point out some of its great architectural icons. Watch for the Royal Exhibition Building, Parliament House, Hotel Windsor and the Old Treasury Building. The latter was designed in 1858 in Renaissance Revival style by a 19-year-old architect.
There are several stops along the way, including one at the temple-like State Library of Victoria, which features one of the world's most impressive reading rooms and a magnificent glazed dome.
Your tour concludes with early-evening drinks and canapés in an outstanding and exclusive surprise setting.
