Of course you still go to Eureka Skydeck. It's the touristy thing to do. If you went to Paris, you'd go to the Eiffel Tower or Tour Montparnasse (or both), but certainly not a rooftop bar/restaurant. You might do that in addition to the landmarks, but you still would go to the landmark itself. If you wanted a free view of the city, simply go to the Shire of Remembrance and go to the top of that.

@rachelandnick 6 лет назад

Not everyone can afford to go to Eureka Skydeck and I've been to the top of the Shire of remembrance too. The view wasn't the same as the view i see from Naked for Satan's rooftop bar. In my opinion, the view was nice but very flat like you would see from Yarra river.

@LordDavid04 6 лет назад

If you're a proper tourist, you'll save up so you can go to these admission only places. Or try and find a discount somewhere. When I went to Berlin I went on the observation deck (and revolving restaurant) of the Fernsehturm. There's just iconic landmarks you gotta go to. On that note, avoid Southern Star Observation Wheel at all costs, unless you just have to go there to complete that checklist of being on all the major observation wheels from around the world. The view is just awful. Docklands was the wrong location, it should have been at Birrarung Marr.

@nickroberts3658 5 лет назад

I agree a rooftop bar has nothing on the 88 floor skydeck but afterall it's just an idea...

@LordDavid04 5 лет назад

@@november132 What you don't want to save money by finding an attraction price cheaper online? No one's forcing you to go anywhere, but you save money with online purchases, coupons and the like.

Make sure to download the PTV app for public transport as sometimes wait times for trains and buses can be ages.

Please don’t do cheap on uggs, I did they end up smelly faster. Real uggs are made by Aussie owned small business families. The skill and experience involved in creating them is worth the $ . Personally I am saving for a pair after wasting about 60 on couple cheapies that fell apart.

@JamieBanksTravel 7 лет назад

Thanks for these tips! Will remember South Melbourne beach!

@rachelandnick 7 лет назад

+Jamie Banks It's so stunning walking around Melbourne beaches in Summer :)

@johnjon5448 6 лет назад

Another local of Melbourne and can vouch that South Melbourne beach is the way to go. St Kilda beach and area is unsavoury IMHO.

@johnjon5448 6 лет назад

Melbourne is less of a holiday destination, but the best place to live.......a couple weeks in a holiday isnt enough to understand why people love living here.

@johnjon5448 6 лет назад

agree with South Melbourne beach, i never go to st kilda

At the end of the video, where is the "I luv Melbourne" located?

@rachelandnick 6 лет назад

Not sure if still there but it was on the cnr of bourke and elizabeth st. In front of a mobile phone shop

@kalliste01 7 лет назад

Thanks for the beach suggestion. I was looking at staying near St. Kilda beach in October but maybe I'll look around a bit more :)

@rachelandnick 7 лет назад

If your thinking of staying in that area I recommend Albert Park which is super close to the city but also has a small beach and is close to South Melbourne. Also I personally think the best beach fairly close to Melbourne is Chelsea beach :-) - Nic

If I want to learn the history of Melboune? Where do I go?

@melbournecrosbie 6 лет назад

& Immigration Museum too.

@themasonexperience6844 3 года назад

The tourist trap is the flight to Sydney

@rachelandnick 7 лет назад

What are your favourite alternatives for Tourist things to do in Melbourne or your country?

@kalliste01 7 лет назад

I like the street art which has obviously changed each time I go. I like going over to the library and seeing what exhibitions they have on or watching people play chess outside. I'll definitely be looking for rooftop bars on my next trip! I've considered Eureka in the past but never gone through with it.

@rachelandnick 7 лет назад

We will probably do a Best Bars in Melbourne video before you come visit :-)

@melbournecrosbie 6 лет назад

Catch a smart bus to see locals of all demographics an see multiple suburbs & shopping centres all on one day for the cost of a myki top up.

@melbournecrosbie 6 лет назад

Visit Williamstown in winter! Fewer tourists when it's cold. Maybe get the beach to yourself. See the yatches at rest and admire the city and St Kilda from across the bay.

@melbournecrosbie 6 лет назад

Catch ferry from Docklands to Williamstown.

@w.c8669 6 лет назад

If I stay for four days. Should I buy miki pass?

@rachelandnick 6 лет назад

Hi! You should just buy daily tickets for 4 days :-)

@w.c8669 6 лет назад

Ok thanks! Location wise, is the CBD the most convenient place to stay? If I just plan to visit basic tourist areas.

@LordDavid04 6 лет назад

If you intend to venture out to the suburbs, then yes get a daily ticket. Otherwise, if you stay in the CBD (hotel/apartment/whatever) the free tram zone is in effect. You can also pretty much walk if you wanted to. Only get a Myki if you intend to travel out to the suburbs by rail or tram.

@waynedunn5594 6 лет назад

Was good Video. Sorry but with me and my brother being on tight budget, We Get Coffee from 7 eleven. 1 Large gives the hit and is about 2-3 dollars.

@rachelandnick 6 лет назад

Wayne Dunn i still get 7/11 coffee too i must admit. A great choice when you're on a tight budget!

@LordDavid04 6 лет назад

Why would you want the cheap Ugg? There's Ugg stores world wide, but shop around, you can find genuine Uggs at slightly more reasonable prices. Even then, you'd still fork out the money for that one time souvenir. Otherwise, just buy online on eBay. You might find a bargain there.
