Due to construction at our hotel, our pickup point was just down the street at Holiday Inn Melbourne on Flinders, 575 Flinders Lane (meet at Flinders Lane entry) at 11:45 AM. 

We got there a little early and our driver was there right on time.   He had picked up a couple guests already and from here we made additional hotel stops around town before heading to our first stop.

We got back to our starting point around midnight.  We'll look at each of the stops in more detail.  We'd highly recommend this tour and tour company if you ever visit Melbourne.

We'll talk more about our first day in Melbourne in another post.  For more images, see our Shutterfly Photo Page.
