EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE SCENES
Tennis World is excited to confirm that Australian Open Guided Tours are now open for bookings.
THE TOUR
THERE IS SO MUCH TO SEE ON THE TOUR – our experienced Tennis World guides walk you through the areas only few see. The new and world-class Player Pod, training areas, changing rooms, player lounge and underground paths are just some examples of places you might experience on our Australian Open tours. Walk on to Show Court 3 and take photos in front of the iconic Melbourne sign. With all of this and more, the tour provides a once in a lifetime opportunity.
