The Monocle Travel Guide to Melbourne
Apr 13, 2018
We are excited to announce the release of The Monocle Travel Guide to Melbourne! Due to arrive on 24 April, it will be available in all good bookshops by the first week of May.
Published by Gestalten, The Monocle Travel Guide Series is a popular collection of city guide books created by the team behind Monocle magazine. Designed to be compact and collectible, they are for people who do not want to be tourists but rather feel like locals when they travel.
The Melbourne guide features the best things to see and do in Melbourne, and showcases the city's enviable cultural hotspots and sleek coffee shops. It also features many of our retail customers including Readings Books, Perimeter Books, Mr Kitly, The Boroughs, Happy Valley Shop, Jardan, and more.
