We had a nice time, however we were absolutely bitterly disappointed at not being aloud on the ‘haloed turf’!! We did 12 noon tour and there was a game on later that day, no players where anywhere near to going out and they shut that down! The same happened with not being able to go into the players rooms-shattered!

It was a bucket-list item to attend the Boxing Day test and then explore the MCG facilities via this tour. Our guide John, an MCC member, was extremely knowledgeable and informative and imparted a great deal of information to the tour group. It was wonderful to visit the player's areas, particularly the dressing/viewing rooms of the New Zealand team who had finished playing there two days earlier.

Unfortunately our guide did not have a very strong voice which made it difficult to hear his obvious immense knowledge. Also we found our group were regularly running into other tour groups as there did not appear to be any formulated route for the respective tours resulting in the odd missed area.
