A starting point for your day
Three Ways To Explore Melbourne
These are suggested routes, not fixed packages. Choose a starting idea and we will assess it around your available time, reservations and preferred pace.
Melbourne Highlights
Hotel pickup → Federation Square and Flinders Street precinct → gardens or the Shrine → agreed return.
A starting idea for first-time visitors who want a few memorable city landmarks and time for photos.
Culture And Neighbourhoods
Central architecture and a laneway walking stop → Carlton or Fitzroy → café or gallery visit.
Allow extra time if you book an exhibition or want an unhurried meal.
City And Bayside
Selected city landmarks → Albert Park → St Kilda → return.
A different perspective on Melbourne, with bayside time included deliberately rather than squeezed into a short city circuit.
Melbourne Landmarks Worth Building Into Your Itinerary
These are itinerary ideas, not automatic inclusions. The right combination depends on available time, operating hours, reservations, traffic and time outside the vehicle.
Federation Square & Flinders Street Station
A natural first-time stop with Federation Square, Flinders Street Station, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Yarra close together. Your chauffeur can arrange a practical nearby drop-off while you explore on foot.
Melbourne Laneways
Laneways are best explored outside the vehicle. For Hosier Lane and other pedestrian or restricted areas, plan a nearby legal drop-off and collection point.
Queen Victoria Market
Useful for visitors interested in Melbourne food and market culture. Check current market trading information when planning.
Royal Botanic Gardens & Shrine
These neighbouring landmarks work well together; allow time to leave the vehicle and explore.
MCG & Melbourne Sporting Precinct
The MCG, Melbourne Park and surrounding sporting precinct can form part of a private sightseeing route. An exterior sightseeing stop does not include stadium entry. Check official MCG tour availability and book any venue tour or event tickets separately.
Arts Centre, NGV & Southbank
Combine galleries, architecture, restaurants and Yarra views. Timed exhibitions and meals should be booked separately.
Carlton & Fitzroy
Explore café, dining, heritage and creative neighbourhood character beyond the postcard landmarks.
St Kilda & Albert Park
Treat these as a deliberate extension when time allows, not another rushed CBD stop.

Make Time For What Matters To You
Choose your top three priorities and tell us how much walking you prefer. We allow for time outside the vehicle as well as the drive between stops.
Share timed tickets, child-seat needs, mobility requirements and luggage before confirming. You do not need a complete itinerary to request a quote.
A Thoughtfully Planned Route
Melbourne’s pedestrian areas, tram corridors and event precincts affect where vehicles can stop. Your chauffeur arranges practical collection points so you can explore on foot and rejoin the vehicle.
For flights or cruise departures, the required return time takes priority when planning the sightseeing stops.
Enjoy Melbourne At Your Own Pace
Choose the places you want to experience, tell us how much time you have, and let Chauffeur Link Melbourne arrange the private driving between them.

Melbourne City Tour FAQs
Is This A Private Melbourne City Tour?
Yes. The confirmed vehicle and chauffeur are booked for your passengers and agreed itinerary. It is not a shared coach tour.
Can We Choose Where We Go?
Yes. Send the places that matter most. CLM can assess whether they form a practical itinerary within the requested time.
Can The Chauffeur Take Us Through Melbourne’s Laneways?
Many well-known laneways are pedestrian areas or have restricted vehicle access. The chauffeur can arrange a practical nearby drop-off and collection where permitted, and guests can explore on foot.
Is A Professional Tour Guide Included?
CLM provides private chauffeur-driven transport and practical route planning. A specialist walking guide or guided attraction visit is not included; arrange these separately if you would like them.
Are Attraction Tickets Or Meals Included?
No. CLM supplies the private car and driver for your confirmed city itinerary. Guests pay separately for attractions, venue tours, meals, cruises and other experiences, and should arrange any timed reservations before the transport schedule is finalised.
Can You Collect Us From Our Melbourne Hotel?
Yes, from a Melbourne hotel or other agreed address, subject to a confirmed booking.
Can We Start Or Finish At Melbourne Airport?
Potentially, when flight timing, luggage and itinerary make it practical. Provide flight details with the quote request.
Can You Collect Cruise Passengers?
A private itinerary may be arranged where terminal, arrival and required return information are supplied and the itinerary is feasible.
How Many Attractions Can We See?
It depends on booked time, traffic, access, walking time and desired time at each location. Prioritising must-see places usually creates a better tour than rushing a long checklist.
Which Vehicle Should We Book?
It depends on passengers, luggage and service requirements. CLM can confirm the suitable vehicle category.
Does The Chauffeur Wait While We Explore?
Yes, within the waiting time agreed for your tour. Confirm the collection point before leaving the vehicle. If you would like longer at a stop, ask the chauffeur so the remaining itinerary and any additional charge can be discussed.
Can We Plan A Tour With Less Walking?
Yes, tell us the walking distance and access needs that suit your group. We can assess more vehicle-based sightseeing and suitable stops. Vehicle accessibility and any assistance required must be confirmed in advance; not every attraction allows drop-off at its entrance.
Can We Bring Luggage, A Pram Or Request Child Seats?
Tell us the number and size of bags, any pram and children’s ages before booking. Rear-facing capsules or seats, forward-facing seats and boosters can be requested. SUVs accommodate up to two child seats and vans up to four, subject to the vehicle and seating configuration. We confirm availability, luggage space and child-seat charges with your quote.
What Happens If We Change Or Cancel?
Contact CLM as soon as plans change. Amendments depend on availability and may change the quote. Cancellations within 72 hours are non-refundable. No credit-card fees apply to your CLM booking. Attraction tickets and other reservations have separate terms.
