Victoria’s Wine and Wildlife

This six-night self-drive is an ideal introduction to Victoria. You'll be based in the refined city of Melbourne, where the street art, quirky cafés and top museums make it stand out as perhaps Australia’s most exciting city. After two days exploring the city, head out on day three for Yarra Valley. Surrounded by mountains, forests and rolling hills dotted with wineries and fruit farms, the drive offers scenic views complemented by fine wine from any of the dozens of vineyards. Come the fifth day, you’ll head to Phillip Island – renowned for its seals, koalas and motor circuit. Offering sheltered swimming beaches, a beautiful rugged coastline and fishing hotspots, Phillip Island is perfect for relaxation as you stay in the charming Oak Lodge located only 100m from the beach and featuring wood-burning fires.
