Victoria

Welcome to Victoria

Your Gateway to Coastlines, Vineyards and Mountain Air

Victoria offers a little bit of everything: dramatic coastal drives, historic gold rush towns, snow-capped mountains in winter, and one of the world’s most liveable cities, Melbourne. It’s perfect for travellers who want variety without long travel times. You can be drinking coffee in a laneway café one morning and walking among waterfalls by the afternoon. Whether it’s food, nature, culture or coastlines, Victoria delivers in every direction.

Best Time to Visit Victoria

Victoria has four distinct seasons. Summers are warm and great for the coast. Winters are chilly, especially inland, but perfect for mountain escapes and winery weekends.

Popular Victorian Regions to Explore

You don’t need to go far in Victoria to find something special. Here are some highlights we love to include in our trips:

• Great Ocean Road – One of Australia’s most iconic coastal drives, with clifftop views, rainforest walks, and the Twelve Apostles.
• Grampians National Park – Towering sandstone peaks, Aboriginal rock art, and panoramic hikes just a few hours from Melbourne.
• Mornington Peninsula – Beaches, hot springs, and wineries all within easy reach of the city. Ideal for a long weekend or a relaxing end to a longer trip.
