Back in the early 80s, right after waving goodbye to school life, I went on a crazy adventure—hitchhiking solo around Australia for 14 months. It wasn't just about the sights and miles; it was about the people I met. Aussies are a generous bunch, they took me in like a lost cousin. I also hooked up with fellow travelers from every corner of the globe. Those months were like a masterclass in life, giving me a whole new perspective and opening up a world of experiences. Fast forward to today, and I'm not the hitchhiker anymore; I'm the one behind the wheel. No, not a taxi driver, but a private driver guide showing international visitors around the natural wonders of Australia. It's like life's way of saying, "Hey, time to give back!" :) Matt

Hello, it's nice to meet you! After living in Aomori, Japan for 21 years, I’ve moved back to my native Melbourne. I loved showing visitors around Aomori and I'm very happy to doing the same in Melbourne. It's a wonderful city and there's a lot to see and do. Melbourne is known for its many beautiful parks and gardens, markets, lanes, its 'upside down' river and of course, its coffee culture. If there's anything in particular you would like to see or do, please don't hesitate to ask, I'm always happy to accommodate requests when possible! Let's have fun exploring this amazing city together!

My tours aim to bring you on a journey to the very core of what makes every place unique—the people, the stories and the local culture. On my tours, I aim for you to experience the unique beauty of nature and Melbourne's diverse culture. I always suggest the most popular itinerary first and listen to your preferences to craft a tailor-made tour for the best experience. A bit about me: I started guiding when I was a teenager from being mountain guide since then, I got more into tour guiding and have been a guide for more than 20 years now, I did tour guiding in Iran, Armenia, Georgia, Uzbekistan and Turkey before and I have been doing guiding in Melbourne continuously for the last 10 years.

Cathedral Ranges Northern Scenic Tour (Private Car)

“Cathedral Ranges Southern Side”

This tour has exceeded my expectation! I thank the supportive and knowledgeable Phil who led the whole bunch of beginners like our group. This hike was considered to be challenging for some of us, but it was so much fun as we got to explore various landscapes along the trail. We spent our lunch on the top of the range, so rewarding!! Best view to have lunch! What we love about the tour with Phil's guidance is that Phil didn't just bring us there, but he became one of the members in the group and he made us feel that we are capable, and as if he got our back! Truly incredible experience!

Phil C.

Thank you so much Linh. You guys were such a fun group to hike with and it is very rewarding to see how well you guys all did.

“Cathedral Ranges Southern Circuit”

Phil was an excellent guide, very helpful and knowledgeable. The cathedral ranges southern circuit was a very scenic and fun hike. The rock climbing and cave sections were very enjoyable and as the route was fairly level, it was not too strenuous apart from some uphill sections.

Thank you Darren, it was really great hiking with you and I look forward to it in the future.
