The original cell block may look small, but there is a lot to see and read. Make sure you have plenty of time when visiting. The 'tour ' was also a lot of fun.
One of Melbourne's most popular iconic landmarks with a history of around 200 years. Ancient buildings can be seen. Definitely worth visiting!
I spent about an hour here. It's a great place for good photography . It's very Ned Kelly-centric, so probably even more interesting for international visitors.
Spend an hour here and read abt interesting prisoners and their stories. See the gallows area where the convicted were hung and their death masks.
A definite MUST VISIT. Very interesting place where you can read stories of criminals in the past
Interesting building but I think tix were too expensive for what it was. Also, if you don't like getting involved in role playing you will not love the tour
The recreation of the prison is quite immaculate. You are transported to a different world
Skip the trial of Ned Kelly , unless you bring a troupe of enthusiastic thespians. The real crime was the child acting. The rest of the gaol was good with information on operations and prisoner bios.
Slightly expensive but the getting arrested experience is fun. Exhibits are interesting and morbid
Super interesting place. The watch house tour is good for a laugh!
Make sure to do the included tour
Great view into melbournes past legal system & lots on Ned Kelly
Very eerie but interesting at the same time
The night tour is so good! But so scary!
Do the watch house tour it's very entertaining
Awesome tour of the police cells.
This is how jails should be :-)
As creepy as you think it will be.
Interesting but quite costly for what you get.

Room service here is terrible....
