25+ Years History

Throughout this time, we have curated the best tours to ensure you make the most of your visit. Our meticulously planned itineraries are designed to provide great value for your time and money.

Small Group Tours
Since our inception in 1998, we have specialized in small group tours. Except for a few peak days each year, we limit our group size to a maximum of 11 people. This allows us to offer a personalized and flexible tour experience. With smaller groups, our guides can deliver exceptional customer service and share their knowledge more effectively. While some companies claim to offer small group tours with 18-22 people, we believe true small group tours mean a more intimate and attentive experience. It might just be our modest nature!
What is Mr John Tours?
Established in Melbourne in 1998, Mr. John Tours was born from Mr. John’s desire to break away from the large Japanese tour companies and offer a truly authentic Aussie sightseeing experience. With his first blue Toyota Tarago, he embarked on a mission to showcase the best of Melbourne to his inbound guests. Over the years, Mr. John has guided tens of thousands of visitors to iconic destinations like the Great Ocean Road, Penguin Parade, Yarra Valley, and Puffing Billy. Many of our guests have enjoyed their tours so much that they return time and again. Today, Mr. John leads a dedicated team, including some of his sons, to continue providing exceptional tour experiences.
In the spirit of reconciliation Mr John Tours acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
