Itinerary:

Valid for 01APR24-31MAR26:

Regarded as Melbourne’s summer playground, there is something magically transporting about the Mornington Peninsula. Only an hour’s drive from the city, it’s a place where vineyards meet the seaside – an idyllic haven that feels a world away. Your Mornington Peninsula experience begins with a visit to the spectacular coastal boardwalks at Cape Schanck. Offering awe-inspiring vistas of the historic lighthouse and rugged coast, watch as waves pound the dramatically shaped Pulpit Rock below. Breathe deep Cape Schanck’s pristine air which also acts as the world reference standard for “zero pollution”. The region is home to more than fifty boutique wineries producing quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Shiraz. Visit one of the most awarded wineries for a structured tasting before settling in for lunch at a leading vineyard restaurant. As for the afternoon, your guide’s intimate knowledge of the region puts you in the perfect position to explore breezy seaside villages, discover gourmet delights in the Red Hill hinterland, continue to sample boutique wines or perhaps see Australian Wildlife at Moonlit Sanctuary – the choice is yours. On return to Melbourne, admire expansive views of Port Phillip Bay and Melbourne’s city skyline as you descend Arthurs Seat, the highest point of this beautiful region.
