Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) Tour - Australian Sports Museum - Melbourne - Review

Last April, Kate took her footy fans to the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). They really enjoyed taking part in the iconic MCG Tour to soak up the amazing grounds where great players have played, explore the inner sanctum and walk along the grounds!

A sports fan’s dream for Kate’s two children to take part in the tour before heading to the Australian Sports Museum (our review here). They loved the experience and getting facts from their knowledgeable MCC volunteer tour guide - amazing fun-filled day all around!
