Worth it. So much history great guide
Very informative especially if you are a lover of cricket and AFL. You appreciate how big the MCG is.
Amazing we had Malcolm as our tour guide highly recommend. It was informative and we both learnt a lot of information about Cricket 🏏 and Australian rules football 🏉
The experience was very good and very detailed and information oriented It gave good insights into the MXG sports.
From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. From the security guard to the ticket sale to the tour guide coordinator and to the tour guide, Paul. Paul was very knowledgeable and catered to his audience 👏 We feel Friday night trivia ready. Seriously, learning about the MCG past, present and future was special. Well done MCG tours.
A very informative tour of an iconic landmark. Volunteer guides are friendly and passionate about this stadium
An absolute must do Melbourne experience. Wonderful value for money tour with experienced volunteer tour guides who really know their stuff. Personable, informative and professional. Some great story telling about the history of this magnificent venue.

An excellent couple of hours on a guided tour around the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Front of house and behind the scenes, with some VIP areas thrown in for good measure. Tour guides are all MCC members with lots of enthusiasm, knowledge and passion for the ground and sports (cricket and football are played here as well as the Australian Sports Museum). Plenty of photo opportunities. Highly recommended for anyone interested in cricket, Aussie Rules Football or Australian sport history.
