Experience the ultimate blend of indulgence and natural wonders with our exclusive Valley to the Island tour. The adventure begins at your hotel with your professional guide greeting you, before heading out to the picturesque Yarra Valley, a renowned wine region just a stone's throw away from Melbourne. Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the countryside as we wind our way through rolling hills, lush vineyards, and quaint villages. Our first stop for the day will be to a carefully selected acclaimed winery where you'll embark on an informative wine tasting. Discover the art of winemaking as passionate vintners guide you through their finest vintages, sharing their expertise and stories along the way. Prepare your taste buds for a culinary delight as we continue to Yering Station to enjoy a sumptuous 3-course lunch perfectly paired with a glass of wine. Immerse yourself in the flavors of the region, as each dish is thoughtfully crafted to showcase the Yarra Valley's finest produce amidst picturesque vineyards. Having satisfied your epicurean desires, we venture down to the iconic Phillip Island, a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. A relaxing drive through the magnificent Dandenong Ranges will give you time to unwind and enjoy the calming scenery. Feel your excitement rise as you approach Philip Island, home to one of nature's most enchanting spectacles – the Little Penguin Parade. See the World-famous Penguin Parade. Every evening at sunset the Little Penguins come out of the surf and return to Summerland Beach. They waddle up to their burrows, just as their ancestors have done for thousands of generations, meandering straight past eager visitors who wait in anticipation for the night’s wildlife spectacle. Watch this miracle unfold in front of you from an raised platform away from the crowds and see these unique creatures return to their nests in the sand dunes. With a light dinner included before or after the penguin parade, your tour will conclude as we return you safely back to your hotel. A day in Victoria, very well enjoyed. Highlights: - Wine tasting at two of the Yarra Valley's best wineries. - A well matched mix of two of Victoria's best destinations. - A delightful 3 course lunch with drinks at one of the Yarra's best winery restaurants - The spectacle of the nightly penguin migration - Phillip Island’s dramatic coastal scenery and epic natural wilderness.~~~~
