Spectators have admired Prince Harrys chivalrous treatment of his wife Meghan Markle during the first few days of their whirlwind Australia tour.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have appeared at a series of engagements in both Melbourne and Canberra so far, with the couple due to fly to Sydney on Thursday.

Photos and footage of Harry, 41, opening doors for his wife, 44, and taking her hand as they greeted the public have garnered much appreciation from viewers. 

He absolutely handles her with such great care! Opens her door and takes her hand. Its very important. A love like this, one admirer wrote.

Oh my goodness, he opens the door for her! Lucky Meghan! a second wrote. 

The high-profile couple will attend the Scar Tree Walk in Melbournes Fitzroy Gardens, where they will be given a tour of the protected cultural heritage site. 

They will be greeted by Indigenous traditional owners at the Koorie Heritage Trust at the Birrarung Building at Federation Square.

From there, they will walk along the Yarra River and cross the William Barak Bridge.

The couples children, six-year-old Prince Archie and four-year-old Princess Lilibet, have not joined their parents on the privately funded visit - which will not include any walkabouts to meet the public.

What are Harry and Meghan doing today?

Prince Harry and Meghan will arrive on Thursday morning at Melbourne’s Fitzroy Gardens for the Scar Tree Walk.

They will be greeted by indigenous traditional owners at the Koorie Heritage Trust Birrarung Building at Federation Square from which the couple will go down to the Yarra River and cross the William Barak Bridge.

The walk is the site of one Melbourne’s six traditional scarred trees, which are more than 200 years old.

The trunks bear the distinctive marks of stone axes used by Indigenous Australians to remove bark to make canoes, shields and other traditional objects.

Led by First Nations guides, the Sussexes and their entourage are expected to be told along their walk about 'Narrm', the Indigenous name for Melbourne, and the long cultural heritage within its city landscape.

The couple will then head to Swinburne University to visit Batyr, a mental health engagement program.

At some point, Prince Harry will also appear at the InterEdge Summit, a gathering to help businesses create 'mentally healthy, safe, and high-performing workplaces'.

The event two-day event, which costs 'virtual' attendees $498 and in-person 'delegates' $997, will see all proceeds go to Lifeline.
