Step into the MCG’s inner world on a 75-minute guided tour with an MCC member, including the Long Room, changing rooms, and the turf.
“The volunteer guide John was excellent but due to so many groups we had to move on too quickly sometimes”
MCG behind-the-scenes tour with Long Room, changing rooms, library and skyline photos, optional Australian Sports Museum admission.
“It was boring, no anecdotes or interesting info about matches of players was given. Just description of the stadium. The tour guide was able to interact with only other Australians or British people. There were a lot of Indians like me and there was zero acknowledgement of other cricketing nations. For this old guide it appeared that Cricket was still a white man's game with other nations as mere interlopers. It was ridiculously boring. Do not go.”
Get behind-the-scenes access at Melbourne’s MCG, then spend as long as you want in the Australian Sports Museum.

Federation Square to the MCG on foot, tennis, Olympics and AAMI Park, plus guided MCG stadium access, cake and drinks.
“Catherine is a wonderful tour guide who gave us so many stories especially about the Australian open. Makes me want to go back and experience the event itself. Must-go tour when you chance to visit Melbourne!”
Small-group Melbourne sports tour with MCG back-stage access, an Albert Park F1 drive, lunch with a drink, and hotel transfers.
“Unfortunately we were not able to gain access to Flemington Park due to dismantling of equipment from the previous weeks race meeting, did not stop at the F1 track but the MCG was a great experience, hence the 2 stars. Too much time spent in the mini bus although our guide was friendly. Not the Sports Lovers tour we were expecting and not good value.”
Walk Rod Laver Arena and the MCG with local guides, Australian Open history, and Melbourne's sporting culture in 3.5 hours for $81.

“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.”
