90 reviews

The Yarra Valley is about 40 kilometers from Melbourne and is famous for its wines. Grape wine has been grown here since 1838, and early Victorian wine estates were built in the Yarra Valley. Yarra Valley, one of the three major wine regions in Australia, ranks among the best in Australia. Its climatic terrain is similar to that of southern France, making it suitable for growing grapes. Therefore, Yarra Valley wines are considered to be of French taste, and their grades are quite high. One of the three wine regions. The PinorNoir and Chardonnay table wines produced in this wine region are even more delicious. The Yarra Valley is also known for its fresh produce, including freshwater salmon, trout and caviar, organic fruit and vegetables, and artisanal cheeses and preserves. De Bortoli Yarra Valley Estate is one of the larger and older wineries in the region. The modern architectural style of Tarrawarra Estate is quite different. Visitors can take a guided behind-the-scenes tour of these wineries, learn about the making of fine wines, and taste wines as they mature from barrels. There is also a hot air balloon tour in the Yarra Valley. You can take a hot air balloon in the early morning and slowly lift off to enjoy the charming scenery of the valley from a height, and then descend to the vineyard to enjoy a delicious local breakfast and sparkling wine. Of course, you can also explore multiple wineries and the food of the Yarra Valley by self-driving. The beautiful Yarra Valley also attracted many early Australian landscape painters and is now home to one of Australia's oldest artist villages. Therefore, in addition to wine and other delicacies, visiting the galleries and studios of local artists and watching the process of creating their works is also a special excursion. Numerous nature reserves and national parks There are many nature reserves and national parks in the Yarra Valley area, and dingoes, koalas, kangaroos and wombats can be seen in the Healesville Sanctuary Native Australian wildlife is plentiful, while the Dandenong Ranges National Park (Dandenong Ranges National Park) is a great place to admire ferns, visit ash forests and look for lyrebirds. In addition, Yarra Ranges National Park (YarraRangesNationalPark), Turangi State Forest (ToolangiStateForest), King Lake National Park (KinglakeNationalPark) are also good places to get close to nature. Yarra Valley Grape Festival Every February, there is a grand Yarra Valley Grape Festival (YarraValleyGrapeGrazingFestival), chefs from many wineries will participate, wonderful live music and rich food will make tourists happy.

Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park

Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park

7.2
4.6/5
80 reviews

Moonlit Sanctuary Wildlife Conservation Park is located on the Mornington Peninsula southeast of Melbourne, about an hour's drive from the city. This bushland sanctuary focuses on conserving native Australian wildlife, and many travelers heading to Phillip Island to see penguins include it in their itinerary. The park is home to dozens of Australian species - koalas, kangaroos, emus, dingoes, wombats, the pitch-black Tasmanian devils (about the size of small dogs), cheerful kookaburras and adorable quokkas - all observable at close range. It also undertakes breeding programs for endangered species, with the orange-bellied parrot being one of its key conservation focuses. Day visitors can hand-feed kangaroos and wallabies, then join keeper talks and wildlife shows to learn about these animals' behaviors. The park's signature experience is its lantern-lit night tour: after dark, follow an experienced guide carrying lanterns through the bush as daytime-sleepy animals become active - wombats emerge to forage, endangered quolls dart through grass, owls widen their eyes, and feathertail gliders (no larger than mice with plume-like tails) glide between branches. With luck, you might hand-feed nectar to sugar gliders or have kangaroos and wallabies approach for treats. Night tours have limited spots requiring advance booking; remember to turn off camera flashes to avoid startling animals. Note that Victoria prohibits holding koalas, but you can snuggle close for photos - plan ahead for such interactive experiences.

The garden is planted with various trees, including English oaks, elms, London plane trees, and Moreton Bay figs, offering different scenery throughout the seasons. The Melbourne Museum on the north side forms a sharp contrast with the classical garden through its modern architectural language, and the same area also features a children's playground inspired by the Victorian maze. The garden is perfect for a stroll; people can walk along the tree-lined paths or rest on the lawns to experience urban garden life in Melbourne.

Due to time constraints, we didn't ride the famous Puffing Billy steam train, so we drove around the park on our own. Maybe it was because it was a weekday, or maybe it was because the park was so big, we didn't encounter any other tourists.

A fantastic museum experience! The entire exhibition hall was beautifully designed, offering an immersive and interactive experience suitable for people of all ages. It allowed for close-up observation of dinosaur fossils and showcased different periods of Australian culture. I recommend allocating 4 to 5 hours for a visit.

It's a great zoo where you can get up close and personal with the animals. It's better than other zoos. You can buy food and the animals will come over. The whole experience takes about an hour. Remember to make an appointment in advance to interact with the koalas, which will be longer and more interesting.

Lovely place to walk past on the way to the Melbourne museum. This time of the year, there’s autumn leaves covering the walkways. There is even a small pond with some ducks in the corner. And right in front of the royal exhibition hall, there is a fountain where sometimes you will catch couples taking their wedding photos here.

Good place and good exercise. You need more strength for longer routes. Alternatively do the small and short ones. Good for kids

I have completed summit of various tallest buildings and observatory decks. However Eureka Towers lacks the punch or experience and assuming that I was never designed from a commercial aspects. However being jn CBD, it does offer some spectacular views and photographic opportunities. But challenge always remains that Wearher should support u. The GenZ experiences like EDGE and VR are there but can be much better. Felt they are not value for money.

We went for the ride with a group of 15 adults and children. We enjoyed the ride very much except for the rain. We took many pictures along the way. We saw many beautiful birds along the walking path around the entrance. There are many picnic tables and chairs around to stop and rest during the ride. It is an easy walk for both the elderly and children.
