Top 12 CRAZY & UNIQUE Things to do in MELBOURNE, Australia
Are you ready to see another side of Melbourne, Australia? We'll take you through some of the quirkiest, unusual and BEST things to do in Melbourne CBD.
Melbourne is famously known for its popular food scene, coffee and laneways. But, stop right there. If you've lived here for as long as we have.. that all gets kinda boring. So, we set out to find some of the craziest and unusual food experiences and Melbourne attractions to cure our boredom.
If you're on the lookout for the best places to eat in Melbourne, I'ma point you straight to Easey's burgers or Panda Hot Pot. Why? Well, the former allows you to devour a burger inside a train carriage mounted to the roof a building and the latter lets you experience hot pot inside a 19th century style Chinese teahouse with all the 'Once upon a time in China' vibes.
Don't even get me started on our Werribee Open Range Zoo Slumber Safari experience. That was just - hands down - one of the most memorable and unique things to do in Melbourne. We went to the African savannah for one night and stayed inside a family glamping tent.

I also got to tick a tandem skydive in Melbourne off my bucket list. If you feel up for jumping out of a plane with some breathtaking views - you gotta do this in Melbourne.

@@HangryByNature Maybe they are crazy and unique to you. Melbourne has much better options that aren't so mainstream but I guess for you, mainstream is unique. The fact you chose to refer to me as a Karen, only confirms that you cant take criticism.on board and that the main priority of your videos is that of a narcissistic exercise. You should try quality instead of quantity in your endeavours to engage those who are looking for something different. There are hundreds of videos like yours CLAIMING uniqueness etc. Probably thousand's. Hence my "boring" comment. Your videos couldn't be more generic if you tried, visually and content. I could give you some great tips on some amazing hidden.places to go in Melbourne however once you and your target demographic becomes aware of these spots, the uniqueness is lost.
If you titled your video iconic, mainstream and generic things to do in Melbourne, this would be an accurate description. There is absolutely nothing unique, crazy nor awesome about your choices of things to do.
