A great way to get around Melbourne is by tram, Melbourne has the largest tram system in the world. The city offers many attractions including the Crown Casino, Melbourne Zoo, the Museum, the Aquarium, the Docklands, Southbank and the famous district of St Kilda. There are also many cultural and sporting tourist attractions such as The Arts Centre, National Gallery, Melbourne Cricket Ground, also known as the MCG and don’t forget that it is home to the Australian tennis open which is played every year in January. Melbourne also has the highest building in the Southern Hemisphere called Eureka Tower.
During the summer the city is swamped with people attending activities like the midsummer arts & culture festival. This festival lasts for three weeks and includes live music and art exhibitions.

I had 3 weeks hoilday, and wanted to see my brother and family in Australia. My brother lives in Bondi, so thought it best to stay in this area.
I stayed at the Swiss Grand Bondi hotel on Bondi Beach which was fabulous. Lovely spacious rooms with small separate room off bedroom and great rooftop swimming pool and spa. Bondi beach has great beach/walks/restaurants/bars/shops and is only 20mins from city centre, so we had best of both words. Were able to go to city centre to do harbour cruise, city tour and wander around the city & harbour area taking it all in.
After Sydney we flew to Hamilton Island and spent a few days at the Reef View Hotel. Hamilton is great with loads to do, nice restaurants, good sailing trips. Highlight was sailing trip to Whitehaven beach, stunning.
