All:
Few years back, my wife had picked up the Melbourne Official Visitor guide in the airport and mentioned to me that there are discount coupons. I off course didn't give much thought to it unless I came to realize how much these are valuable. I had picked these up a few weeks back and the current winter guide (available free when you come into the country near the immigration forms)) contains the following "deals". I'm not going into the fine print or exclusions, but most of these are expiring by 31-Aug. But then you'll get some more discounts to replace these.
The list of coupons you get are:
15% off car rental — Redspot
20% off Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium
20% off General admission — Melbourne Star Observation wheel
20% off admision Old Melbourne GAOL
10% off all private tours — MP experience tours
Free skate hire at Medibank Icehouse
VIP double pass ticket upgrade — Dracula's cabaret
Receive 10% off any tour — chocoholic tours
20% discount — Queen victoria market Dream tour/Market insider tour
10% off day entry — sovereign hill
Two for one — Melbourne River cruises
20% off entry to Aztects — Melbourne Museum
Indulgence package — calma spa and skin clinic (looks like a groupon kind of deal)
free ice shot and 15% off food — Chill on Ice lounge
Free time freak upgrade — Wyncity bowl and entertainment
20% off guided tours — Arts centre melbourne
25% discount — puffing billy steam railway
two for one pancake offer — The pancake parlour
Two for one admission — National sports museum, MCG tours
10% off at boxt jewlellery
Hope this helps somebody as i'm personally trying to use the 25% discount on puffing billy as the coupon is valid for 2 people…and hope everybody appreciates the time taken to put this post together.
Sorry for the poor quality photo. If anybody can upload high quality photo, it'll be much appreicated
Best to pick them up at federation square melbourne visitor centre as well. They have one or two different publications offering different discounts. Similar to those you would usually get through racv and the like.
