Melbourne is arguably Australia’s ‘Sporting’ and ‘culture’ capital of Australia, so it would be impossible to avoid Melbourne’s vibrant cultural atmosphere while on your school football tour. On a city tour your students will be taken off the beaten track to explore the iconic landmarks, colourful laneways, arcades, street art, parks and history. They will be captured by stories, history and experience the local side to Melbourne – learning how Melbourne became the cultural capital it is today!
