Melbourne Australia Cruise Terminal, Tourist information and transport options including the tram.

Cruising with Holland America to Melbourne was a fantastic experience. The port is easy to navigate and there are various options to get into the city by Bus, Tram or Taxi. We purchased the MYKI card and used this as you will experience on the video. Get off and go into the city. It is so easy and there is lots or tourist advice at the port and just ask.
Melbourne's extensive tram network, Yarra, takes you almost anywhere you want to go. Transit riders must use a contactless, prepaid card named Myki (pronounced my-key). With Myki, you need to purchase a card for $6 and then top it up. A two hour zone 1+2 ticket costs $4.40 capping at $8.80 daily ($6.40 cap on weekends and holidays, Aug 2019). You can also buy an Explorer Pack for $15 which includes $9 stored value (enough for the daily cap) and with a bonus of discounts at local attractions. The Explorer Pack is only sold in certain locations. Tapping off is not required on trams. Melbourne has decided not to offer short term tickets with this new system making it expensive for both visitors and infrequent users.
Melbourne's main pedestrian street is Bourke St Mall with shopping centers and chain stores. For souvenirs, head to the large covered Queen Victoria market at the north end of Queen St. Head to Chinatown, centered around Little Bourke and Russell St, for authentic Chinese food and Yum Cha. Flinders Lane, parallel to Swanston St and across from Flinders station, contains hidden restaurants and cafes.
