Melbourne

Constantly voted one of the most liveable cities in the world, it’s not hard to see why when visiting Melbourne, Australia. It's a melting-pot of ethnicities, each adding their own unique flavour to the fusion of Melbourne’s cultural landscape. Admire the Victorian-era architecture which gives a distinctly European feel to this Australian metropolis. Stop in one of the many cafés catering to Melbournians’ passion for coffee. Sample some of the diverse cuisine on offer from all parts of the globe. Or take a self-guided city-tour on the scarlet City Circle Tram. This is a city that’s sports mad and watching a fast-paced game of Australian Rules football is a must. Visit Federation Square, the city’s meeting point, full of interesting, geometrical architecture plus other attractions and landmarks. Before calling it a night at the hostel, head to St Kilda to sample the beachfront nightlife scene.
