The Complete Guide to Melbourne & Victoria Adventures

Victoria is Australia’s smallest mainland state but one of its most rewarding to explore. Melbourne is the cosmopolitan hub — famous for coffee, laneways, sport and food — while within a few hours you can reach fairy penguins on Phillip Island, cool-climate wineries in the Yarra Valley, the wild beaches of Wilsons Promontory and the cliffs of the Great Ocean Road.

Phillip Island Penguin Parade

Each evening at dusk, hundreds of little penguins waddle up the beach to their burrows in one of Australia’s most beloved wildlife spectacles. Day tours from Melbourne combine the penguin parade with koala sanctuaries and the Nobbies coastline.

Yarra Valley Wine Country

Just an hour from the city, the Yarra Valley is Victoria’s premier wine region, known for pinot noir, chardonnay and sparkling. Full-day wine tours include cellar-door tastings, gourmet lunches and often a stop at a chocolate or berry farm.

Gateway to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne is the starting point for the iconic Great Ocean Road, home to the Twelve Apostles. Many travellers pair a Victoria city break with a Great Ocean Road day trip or a longer coastal touring route — see our dedicated Great Ocean Road hub for those tours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best day trips from Melbourne?▼
The most popular day trips from Melbourne are the Phillip Island penguin parade, the Great Ocean Road and Twelve Apostles, and the Yarra Valley wine region. Wilsons Promontory and the Grampians are excellent for hikers wanting a bit more wilderness.
When is the Phillip Island penguin parade?▼
The penguin parade happens every single night of the year, starting around sunset when the little penguins return from the sea to their burrows. Exact timing shifts with the seasons — earlier in winter, later in summer — and tours are timed to arrive before the penguins come ashore.
How much do Melbourne tours cost?▼
Prices range from short city and wildlife experiences through to full-day wine and coastal tours. Every tour above shows its live price in real time, backed by our best price guarantee, so you always see the current rate before booking.
Can I do the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne in a day?▼
Yes — full-day Great Ocean Road tours depart Melbourne and reach the Twelve Apostles, though it makes for a long day. For a more relaxed pace, consider a one-way touring route to Adelaide. See our Great Ocean Road hub for all the options.
What wildlife can I see in Victoria?▼
Victoria is superb for wildlife — little penguins and koalas on Phillip Island, kangaroos and emus in the grasslands, fur seals on cruises, and whales off the coast in winter and spring. Many day tours include dedicated wildlife stops.
