Living in Melbourne

Overview

Colourful, lively Melbourne has broad appeal for every type of traveler, everything from cozy cafes and local art to national history to spectator sports. Start your day with a "flat white" coffee before hopping on the free City Circle Tram loop to check out singular attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Healesville Sanctuary, where animal friends await. Melbourne is also a great starting point for day-trips to explore the Great Ocean Road and Phillip Island.

Moving to Melbourne has changed the lives of so many people and helped make this one of the world’s greatest cities. Migrating to Melbourne could be one of the best decisions you ever make.
