Well my friend if your staying near the crown for only 2days , you have heaps at your door already , heaps of restaurants , night clubs at the crown , if its a nice night you have free entertainment along the south bank where the crown is , you can spend 2 days easy just around there , plus theres the casino ,even if you dont gamble its still good to check it out  ...... when your down give me a call if im free we can meet and i can give you some vip passes to some nice bars to take the young bloke .... if hes 18 of coarse ,,, lol

The Melbourne Aquarium is on the other side of the river which is fantastic well worth it. Southbank is enjoyable just going for a wonder. Leave the car use the trams go up Elizabeth st. check out the bike shops

welcome to the forum marx

I always tell anyone visiting to go to H,D,Developments @ 359 Little Lonsdale Street,  go up stairs to their museum  

Harley City 770 Sydney road Brunswick also has a Harley museum... & Highway 31 cafe is across the road is worth a look...

 

 

definately check out Harley City, shame their museum wouldnt be open for you to visit though on those days.

WozzA I wasnt aware HD Developments had a museum, thanks for the tip I will have to check it out myself one day!!!

How olds ya son chopper? Could recommend shops to look at, but will know better suggestions depends on age.....

Food wise I would recommend Lygon st for an pizza pasta type stuff or fish n chips in st kilda beach.

 

There is a lazer tag at Crown too... good for the little uns.

I'd second the suggestion re the City Circle Tram - it is free and a good way to see the city
If you are into sport - National Sports Museum at the MCG is interactive and the kids really enjoy it - the MCG tour is pretty amazing ( if into sport esp AFL /Cricket)

Shopping - South Wharf has a large number of shops in it -
Harbour Town - Docklands - has Tunza fun - kids play area - bit pricey but there are deals on the internet if you can find them
Crown also has a kids / big kids fun area ( already mentioned but can be a bit difficult to find)

enjoy !

I dont mind a stop in at Mens Gallery or Gold Fingers when Im in town

LOL walka, I bet you don't.
I take it you are bit older than 6 though?

Have you been down to GO road? (nice day trip with the Mrs)
How about Harley City Museum, opens 3rd Sat of every month, but they'd open it for you anytime if you'd tell them you are out of town.
