Home to Australia's flagship city
Outside of Melbourne, drive the Great Ocean Road and tick off one of life's great road tripsVictoria is renowned for being home to the most livable city in the world, and this south-eastern state of Australia certainly won’t disappoint visitors. From wildlife adventures and famous coastal landmarks, to gorgeous wineries and aromatic cafés, a luxury holiday in Victoria will have something for everyone.
Highlights
Where better to start exploring this stunning and diverse region than in Melbourne, which has often been voted the world’s most livable city. Here is where you can sample the famous coffee culture as you make your way down the interconnecting alleyways, stopping off at a quaint café on Degraves Street or the more bustling Swanston street. Along the way, you’ll likely come across vibrant street art and an artisan eatery or two. Cuisine in Melbourne is so culturally diverse you’ll be sure to find a restaurant to suit your tastes.
See the popular sights along the Yarra River, including Federation Square and Melbourne Cricket Ground. Be sure to head to Crown Casino on Southbank for a world of entertainment, and watch the fires blaze atop waterfall features, which are scattered along the promenade at the river’s edge. In the evenings, gear up for a lively night out on the town where you’ll be spoilt for choice with the wide range of cocktail bars, craft beer pubs and nightclubs.
Take the time to explore regional Victoria, where you can drive along the world-famous Great Ocean Road, stopping at beautiful beaches along the way. One of the route’s most famous attractions is the Twelve Apostles, where you can marvel at towering limestone stacks jutting out from the ocean. Alternatively, head to the Yarra Valley, Dandenong Ranges or Mornington Peninsula for exquisite local wine, or make your way to Phillip Island for the famous penguin parade and the koala conservation centre. Alternatively, have a relaxing soak in the Daylesford hot springs and explore the area’s boutique stores and beautiful gardens.
To discover a segment of Australia’s history, visit Sovereign Hill, the town famous for the goldmines during the gold-rush period. Here, you can take a walk through the recreated town centre with museums and craft stores, and you can even try your hand at panning for gold.
Before you leave, don’t miss the chance to watch an Australian Football League match, the national sport of Australia, where you’ll really get to know the passion and vivacity of Australians.
