A very enjoyable day. Jess was a fabulous host who ensured our day was successful and fun. Delicious lunch, great conversation and many amazing purchases. Highly recommend. Will book again

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thanks for such a lovely review! We love to hear from our guests how much they enjoy our tours. We're so pleased that you picked up some great bargains and had such a fun day. I loved meeting you both and spending the day with you. Enjoy your last couple of days in Melbourne and safe travels home. Hopefully next time you're here I'll have sorted out that door!

Great day shopping!

Catherine F, May 2017

Unfortunately this tour was not quite what we were expecting. Whilst Tracy was a fantastic host and provided an excellent service in terms of hotel pick up and drop off and a really interesting commentary about Melbourne city that was really the highlight of the day. We felt many of the stores we visited had poor quality clothing and we struggled to find something to purchase at many places. The lunch was very disappointing - what we ordered was not available and when lunch came, the quality was poor.

The whole experience was awesome...

catherine_C, Apr 2017

Tracey was fantastic, very friendly. The only good outlets were Siriccos, Diana Ferrari and the Jewellery and accessory outlets, the others were a complete waste of time. TS didn't have a lot of sizes and Bonds way too overpriced.

Heather G, Jan 2017

We had a great day with Tracy on our Bubbles and Bargains tour. We had a varied tour group with 6 people varying from 16 to 60. Tracy worked very hard to please everybody. Great bargains, nice lunch and great company. My favourite shops were Olga's in Toorak Rd, South Yarra, Florsheim and Diana Ferrari. I think I should have bought a bigger suitcase.

Saphronn C, Dec 2016

Really loved the tour, the guide was awesome and she knows her stuff and really tries to get you close to the shops you're going to shop at. Lunch was really nice at a quiet out of the way but oh so good restaurant that was relaxing and recharged us for more shopping. Being able to sit out some of the shops in the air-conditioned van was great and looking around and getting a quick guided tour was also a bonus :

Ludo, Jan 2016

Great way to spend the day if you are a shopaholic. Can be frustrating as the amount of time there could also dependent on the preference of the other tour members so can at times feel rushed. But overall enjoyable and definitely bargains to be had!
