Melbourne: The food capital of Australia

I visited Melbourne in April after two previous attempts to see the city fell through due to ill health.
The flight from Heathrow took 13 hours to Singapore, then we had a one hour 45 minute re-fuel stop (during which we all disembarked and had a stroll in fabulous Changi Airport) and then it was another seven hours to Melbourne's Tullamarine Airport.
On arrival I got the Skybus to Spencer Street Station in the city centre — great value at $13 one way. It was then just a short taxi drive (or a 15 minute walk) to my hotel on Little Collins Street, right in the heart of the city.
Victoria Hotel is the largest 3.5 star hotel in Melbourne and, although it's a bit shabby in parts it's excellently located and was very clean. It's a great choice if, like me, you're on a tight budget but don't want to rough it too much at a backpacker hotel. I paid £32/night for a single en-suite. If money had been no object then I'd... more


Melbourne: Great for city slickers

Melbourne is an attractive city divided by the Yarra River. To the north lies a variety of retail outlets from souvenir shops to elegant department stores. There are theatres, cinemas, banks, in fact everything you would expect of a major city.

An abundance of restaurants graces the streets — fast food diners, most types of ethnic cuisine and Chinatown.
Victoria is known as the garden state. Melbourne has large expanses of parkland, like the Royal Botanical Gardens, which lead into Kings Domain where you'll find the Sydney Myers Music Bowl.
The Domain is also the site of the Shrine of Remembrance, a memorial to Victorians who lost their lives in the First World War.
There are numerous tours and the Tourist Information Centre displays short films of most of the attractions.
One of our favorite tours was the Penguin Parade at Phillip Island. Every evening at sunset, thousands of tiny penguins emerge... more


New Year Down Under


A beautiful, cosmopolitan city, full of restaurants, parks and great shopping. I went in December, and spent New Year's Eve in the centre of Melbourne. It was spectacular, but the fireworks weren't as good as those we see in Sydney harbour.
With a wide choice of dining available, the Chinatown area is particularly good, but seafood restaurants win hands down. If you're idea of fun is people-watching, try the cafes in Acland Street, where all the beautiful people hang out.
For a getaway from city life, the Mornington peninsula, south of Melbourne, is very picturesque, with great scuba diving, amazing beaches, wineries galore and many other activities to keep you busy.
It's where the Melbournites go on their weekends and holidays, though, so it's best to avoid it in the holiday season.


Sports-mad city


Melbourne has great parks and gardens - the Royal Botanic gardens were beautiful and we had cream tea by the lake, sheltering from the blistering heat under a shady tree.
In Fitzroy Gardens we were a bit confused to see Captain Cook's cottage - brought over brick-by-brick from Yorkshire, strange but true.
My sports-mad man couldn't rest until he'd been to the national gallery of sport and the Olympics, but even I had to admit it was quite interesting. We also trolled round Melbourne cricket club, where you can browse yourself or take a guided tour.
I loved the art deco buildings downtown - they are beautifully preserved and kept up.
I had to get some huge blisters on my feet pierced by a doctor who had an office in one of these architectural gems and it helped take the edge off my discomfort.


Slow down and don't do too much


Australia is enormous - don't try to pack in too much. It's a temptation when you've gone all that way, but you'll end up not enjoying anything because you'll be too tired.
Don't expect to "do" cities like Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and certainly not Sydney in anything less than three days.
It's also great to get a perspective on things by not flying everywhere, but slowing down and taking a train journey.
We took a 32-hour trip from Brisbane to Cairns and it was brilliant to just chill out and enjoy the scenery - sleeping on the train was very relaxing - and I liked being woken up by the chirpy steward with my morning cuppa.
