A red double-decker bus with 'City Sightseeing Melbourne' branding parked in front of a modern glass building.

Melbourne Central Business District

Explore the magnificent Southbank riverfront, experience the city’s cultural charms in the arts precinct and see a glimpse of colonial history in central Melbourne.

A cityscape with a prominent bridge over a river, modern skyscrapers, and historic buildings.

Southbank

The Yarra River’s waterfront offers a diverse range of hotels, galleries, bars and a casino complex.

A marina with boats docked, a city skyline with tall buildings, and the sun setting in the background.

Docklands

A gorgeous harbour with waterfront dining and jaw-dropping city skyline views… this might sound more like another popular Australian city, but surprise – it’s Melbourne!

A beach with a pier extending into the water, boats docked at the pier, and a seagull on the shore.

Sorrento

When it comes to waterfront, Sorrento takes the prize. Check out bayside or ocean coastlines – Sorrento spoils you like that.
