While it is impossible for travelers to learn everything they can about a new city on one trip, they can certainly receive a crash course in Melbourne when they take their car rental in Australia to the Melbourne Museum.

In addition to the city, travelers who visit the institution will learn about life in Victoria, the Australian state that Melbourne is located in. If the kids are in tow, they are sure to enjoy the museum, which includes a gallery designed especially for them.

As Australia is completely surrounded by water, it is only fitting that the museum has a marine life exhibit to show visitors what goes on off the coast of Victoria. Here, travelers can see small wonders, such as spider crabs and fangtooth fish, or get a sense of how large a giant squid really is.

Elsewhere in the museum, the 600 Million Years: Victoria Evolves exhibit takes visitors on a journey through time with the help of models, animatronics, animation and interactive multimedia.

After exploring the museum, travelers who feel there is still more to learn about Australia can set out in search of more learning opportunities with their car rental in Melbourne.
