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 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!

“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.
