Detailed Itinerary
The journey, in full
Be met at your hotel by your expert host for a 10 am start. The short drive to Mornington is a great chance to share some of your tastes and interests so these can be made a feature of your uniquely tailored experience. Sit back and get to know your host in a luxury touring vehicle equipped with wi-fi, water, and a selection of Victorian treats. En route to the Peninsula, stop at a favorite local wildlife park for some behind-the-scenes encounters with kangaroos, koalas, and a host of other native animals. The Mornington Peninsula has some classic local sparkling to get the day’s wine tasting underway. Tastings can be enjoyed at a number of local cellar doors, with the opportunity to venture behind the scenes with the winemaker. The region is renowned for farm-to-plate experiences at restaurants and cellar doors. Enjoy a casual lunch or something more elegant among rolling hills and sprawling vineyards. Visit hidden beaches among Victoria’s wild southern coastline for a gentle stroll after lunch or take the scenic drive up to Arthur’s Seat. For something different, visit a private Indigenous gallery or sample farm fresh goat's cheese and pastries and chat with the makers. Your host will have you back in Melbourne by 6 pm. (start and finish times can be varied to suit your needs).
