Your Travel Itinerary
Embark on a full-day adventure from Melbourne and uncover the natural beauty and rich heritage of regional Victoria. Your journey begins at Kyabram Fauna Park, home to kangaroos, koalas, wombats, and the remarkable cassowary. This open-range sanctuary provides an incredible opportunity to encounter Australia’s most iconic and unique wildlife in a close and authentic setting.
Your next stop is the historic river port town of Echuca, where you’ll step back in time aboard an authentic heritage paddle steamer. Glide along the mighty Murray River and soak up the serene scenery – from towering red gum forests to rustic riverbanks – as the timeless charm of country Australia unfolds around you.
Continue your adventure by uncovering some of Victoria’s most picture-perfect hidden gems. In Rochester and Colbinabbin, towering grain silos have been reimagined as massive outdoor artworks, brought to life with colourful murals that celebrate local stories and heritage. These striking masterpieces are a dream for photography enthusiasts and the ultimate spot for unforgettable Instagram-worthy shots.
End the day at the Pink Cliffs Reserve, a hidden natural wonder where mineral-rich clay formations shimmer in stunning hues of blush pink, burnt orange, and golden yellow.
