A Melbourne experience, done the boutique way: The and NGV, Fitzroy and Collingwood’s best browsing, a South Melbourne Market morning, an MCG behind-the-scenes tour, and one big coastal day on the Great Ocean Road (with a Wilsons Prom swap if you prefer it wilder).

A softly paced Brisbane itinerary built for boutique-minded travellers: river walks and gallery time, James Street wandering, long lunches and rooftop drinks — plus optional add-on experiences for North Stradbroke Island, whale watching in season, or a Lady Elliot Island reef flight.
