Victoria Tours and Vacation Packages

Overview

Victoria, although the smallest state in mainland Australia, is filled with diverse and plentiful attractions both natural and cultural to be enjoyed on an Australia vacation. Melbourne, the capital, is stylish and cosmopolitan. It boasts a world-class culture, sports and dining and is known for hosting world-famous events such as the Australian Grand Prix, the Australian Open Tennis and the Melbourne Cup.

Outside of Melbourne, not to be missed on trips to Australia is Phillip Island where penguin colonies live in their natural habitat. Another region to visit is the Yarra Valley famous for its wineries and rainforests. Victoria altogether has more than 600 wineries which makes it a very important part of Australia’s wine industry.

Ballarat is a small city, once famous as the centre of the gold rush and Geelong offers beautiful surf beaches and spectacular views of the Great Ocean Road. By taking the scenic drive along this highway, you will discover a diverse and dramatic region between Geelong and Portland with wonderful views of this wild and windswept coastal highway. Included are the renowned 12 Apostles; the limestone pillars here rise out of the ocean carved over time by the waves.
