Hi all,

Looks like I'll be visiting Melbourne in winter 2024 for a wedding with my family. Any must-see tourist attractions you can suggest?
We'll definitely be hitting up Melbourne zoo, and maybe Werribee.

Thinking I'll have to hire a car.. though I'd prefer to stay central and use public transport and Uber around when required.

Puffing Billy, and if you have small children... Diamond valley railway

Thanks... I'd never heard of either of them :) Will keep them in mind for sure.

Instead of Werribee, you could go to healsville sanctuary. It's the Melbourne zoo for native animals.
