Excellent tour of Melbourne sports venues. - What an excellent experience this was. Neil the tour guide has an immense amount of knowledge about the sports venues in Melbourne, even those not on the tour. And a big kudos for still running the tour with only one participant i.e. me. A lot of organisations would have cancelled so for this to still run was very much appreciated.
