I live in Australia. I live in the state of Victoria, I love Melbourne
@tripsadelica6 жыл бұрын
Love your videos! I am a local...lived here all my life and I've travelled to the US and other parts of the world. Some clarifications for you to note: 1/ City shopping hours do tend to vary and shops may open longer in the city than in the suburbs (Melbourne has huge ring of suburbs surrounding the city kind of like LA.). In general the hours are as follows: Monday to Wednesday- 8 or 9am until 5.30pm Thursday and Friday- 8 or 9am until 9pm Most shopping centres (malls) will keep to these hours but small strip shops may choose to close earlier. Saturday- 9am until 5pm Sunday-10am until 5pm There are exceptions in the CBD and the very large shopping centres may stay open a little longer...especially in summer. Supermarkets run 8am until midnight...there are some 24/7 supermarkets in the suburbs. Some department stores like Kmart (yes, we have them but they are not the same company as US Kmarts) will open 8am until 10pm every day in the suburbs with the iconic first-ever Aussie Kmart in Burwood (suburb) open 24/7. The big hardware chain here (Bunnings) opens until the early evening but each store may have different hours. 2/ Driving: STICK TO THE SPEED LIMITS! The traffic camera network here is huge. They have red light cameras, combined red light and speed cameras, speed cameras and point to point (distance~speed over time) cameras (on some freeways). There are even clandestine mobile speed cameras placed in ordinary looking late model cars which park on roadsides to catch drivers out. The tolerance for being overspeed is 3km/h ...that's about the width of your speedometer needle. You have to drive with one eye on your speedometer and one eye on the traffic. The authorities say it is to promote safety BUT we all know it generates a lot of revenue so, really, it is a voluntary tax...speed and you'll pay for it. Most locals are now used to it but visitors can find it hard. Speed limits (and signs) are in km/h, not MPH...so be careful. The lowest speed limit is 30km/h (rare...more often 40) and the highest speed allowed on SOME freeways is 110km/h. Signage is pretty good...some areas have electronically variable signs...keep your eyes peeled. School zones have variable speed limits around them and these are strictly enforced. If you get a ticket don't think you can fly home and ignore it. The traffic office will bill the hire care company and they will take the fine out of your credit card...sadly. 3/ People are friendly to tourists...most people will help you out if you are lost. Service stations will have a traffic map book (called a "Melways" after the publisher's name) that you can have a quick look at. At service stations most are self-serve. You pay after filling your tank except late night where some stations will require you to pay first. Police are friendly...they do NOT have their hands on a pistol when approaching your car (very few handguns here). If you are stopped, stay in your car...they will come to you. They will ask for your licence first. If you have an international permit show it to them WITH your home country licence. If you are a tourist and make a silly mistake you will probably find they will tell you what you've done wrong and let you go on your way. This does not apply to being well over the speed limit or DUI. You can be stopped and breath tested/drug tested at any time without due cause...be aware of that. 4/ Is Melbourne safe to walk around? Daytime...most definitely. Night time as well but keep your wits about you. Like any big city we have our share of criminals. 5/ Can you bargain in the shops? Not in department stores or many smaller stores. In electronics/camera retailers most definitely! Finally...the big thing tourists get wrong (which is mentioned in the video) we drive on the same side of the road as in the UK. Many tourists have been caught out by this. Listen to what the car rental company tells you...they will often give you a leaflet explaining the basic rules. When crossing a street look to the RIGHT, then left then right again before crossing. That's about it...enjoy your stay.

Some more tips: 1. Melbourne weather is "four seasons in a day" i.e. changes very quickly, so dress in layers that you can easily put on / take as needed (especially in spring and autumn), with the outermost waterproof. 2. You may be charged an international transaction fee each time you use your bank card - especially debit cards - to withdrawn money from an ATM (this is levied by your bank, not the ATM) so ask your bank if this applies before you go on your holiday. If this is the case, make less frequent withdrawals of larger amounts, or get a "pre-loaded" card which often don't attract fee. 3. Trams have right of way over cars and pedestrians, so ALWAYS remember this when turning or crossing trams tracks. 4. When ordering a beer, don't drink Fosters (which most Aussies don't drink) - there are MUCH better beers than this. For inexpensive local beers, try Melbourne Bitter or Victoria Bitter instead (Coppers, as shown in thev video, is a good beer, as are Boag's and Cascade from Tasmania), and like most Australian beers, they are actually lager, not bitter, and meant to be drunk cold. In summer in particular, don't order a pint - the beer loses its chill too quickly and doesn't taste as good. 5. Australia has GREAT seafood, just remember they are PRAWNS not shrimp.

I have lived in Melbourne for more than 50 years and I think your review was fairly accurate and balanced, just like to make a few small additions. Winter 9 months, NO. it starts to get a little cool from mid May and warms up mid September, mid winter 10 deg C is as cold as it gets daytime. Getting around city, you forgot to mention bicycles. Melbourne is bicycle friendly although you are required to wear a helmet. You mentioned water and beer but forgot wine. Victoria has many great wineries less than 2 hr drive from the CBD, and you can buy many excellent quality wines cheaply. And finally, Speedos are called “Budgie smugglers”.

Melbourne is Australia's equivalent of Boston, which is funny because they are actually sister cities. In regards to the trams, the other Australian cities had tram networks in the 1950's and decided to get rid of them, but Melbourne kept theirs. Its rather ironic that those cities that took them away now are putting them back.

To add Queen Vic market is also open nights, generally Wednesdays but many more nights through the summer months, great place to try out all sorts of foods, viet, indian, italian, ukranian, aussie, sweet, savoury and everything in between... But it fills up quick and youll be waiting quite a while for food from 730-9 so make sure to scope it out early if you're hungry to try a few different things. If you enjoy you're drinking you're in luck with melbourne, do the tram bar crawl, start at one end of the city at a bar and have a drink, then get on a tram and make your way down the line :) And you're right about coffee here :) Plenty of cafes and coffee shops in alley ways that have some amazing coffees

Melbourne trains at the moment are a pain in the arse because of the major works they're doing in the CBD and the works to remove train crossings in the outer suburbs which will continue all of 2018. Best tip is to download the metro/metlink app (its free) and gives live updates for all delays and works. Also for travelers most trains going around the CBD and towards any of the south-east outer suburbs will be abserlutely packed to the brim between 6am-8:30am/3pm-7pm :) loved hearing about Melbourne from a tourist perspective!

I agree winter is 9 months long in Melbourne but it is fairly mild and rarely need to wear a coat. I disagree with "it rains a lot in Melbourne". It has rained about 6 times in the last 4 months we are in drought. Multi-billions of dollars has been spent on a desalination plant to ensure the future water supply. Melbourne actually gets less than half the rainfall of Sydney. I don't think Melbourne is a great tourist destination - I think you need to live here to really get to love and appreciate Melbourne. Melbourne gets less than half the tourists of Sydney. Sydney is the face of Australia but Melbourne is the heart and soul.

9 months is wrong. It is warm for seven months from October until then end of april. It is only cool/cold forfive months. Even saying to north americans that winter is 5 months is inaccurate. I walked around today (1 july) in my t-shirt in the sun and its was beautiful.

I would love to move to Australia for work, from Africa, Kenya how easy can that be? I like it that life in Australia is more like in Kenya.

Australia has pretty tough immagration laws, but it makes the country safer by not just letting any joe schmo in. If you have no criminal past you should be fine with getting a visa :) especially if you are providing work.

Winter's not really 9 months long.... It's cold from about May to September so we do get a solid 5 months of winter weather for sure, but by the same token we also get a pretty solid 5 months of summer weather from November to March so it's definitely not as bad as the reputation. It's also a relatively dry city compared to Sydney & Brisbane which have far more rainfall, rain is usually only in short spurts here - wait 10 minutes and it will clear up.

The stores don't close late? Maybe small shops but main stores are usually open to at least 10pm here

Thank you very much for all the tips. I am so happy to see you did videos. I will be going to Australia in March 2018 and it will be my first visiting in Australia. Wondering if you will doings videos for Sydney and Brisbane also. And yes I am one of your subscriber since you did videos in Singapore.

+Ruby Box Thanks Ruby! On this trip I only went to Melbourne and Adelaide... But I didn't have enough time in Adelaide to do any videos. I've got a few more Melbourne videos coming up though! Glad you found me thru Singapore :)

What did you think of Adelaide? I live here and I consider it pretty quaint, compared to the chaos of New York. The airport is good as well.
@YellowProductions7 жыл бұрын
Adelaide was definitely quaint and quiet :). I liked the city center with the university, river, and shopping streets. I didn't like that all the stores closed at 5pm on Sunday including grocery stores. The airport was good and super close to the city which was nice.

Mel-burn - its pronounced. great review!

It's pronounced that way with an Australian accent. That's not how you pronounce it in American.
