Victoria
Victoria is Australia’s second-smallest state; roughly the same size as the British Isles and hugs the tip of Australia’s east coast. Visitors to Victoria will marvel at the opportunities that await, for this compact state is packed with a wealth of diverse regional areas and attractions. From the National Parks and Forests teeming with wildlife to wineries, lakes and mountains offering skiing, climbing and hiking. Many of Victoria’s unique landscapes are easily accessible as day trips from Melbourne – the states capital.
Melbourne is renowned for its sense of style and elegance, boasting Australia’s best shopping, a lively passion for eating and drinking, as well as a flourishing interest in the arts. Great vestiges of nineteenth-century architecture, built following the discovery of gold, are heady reminders of a prosperous age, while beautifully tended parks and gardens present a therapeutic respite from the pace of city life.
So loose your self in the many side streets or hidden lanes of Melbourne or take further flight and explore the diversity and beauty of Victoria’s regions. Escape to the world-class wineries of the Yarra Valley, experience the mineral springs of Daylesford (spa country), or explore the costal villages of the Mornington Peninsula. Embrace the open road on one of the worlds most memorable drives along the Great Ocean Road, or take to the air and be captivated by the views from a hot-air balloon as you float about vineyards and farmland. Anything is possible in Victoria! |

Melbourne
Melbourne is dubbed marvellous for a reason. Healthy hedonism masquerades as high art: Melburnians are equally passionate about football and ballet, fashion and restaurants. They are ravenous for music and hot for theatre. It's a smorgasbord of a city that you'll want to sink your teeth into.
