VICTORIA TRAVEL GUIDE
Wait a minute! You may think you only need a short time to explore Melbourne - we sure did.
But, as soon as we started discovering a few of its hidden gems that month turned into three.
Victoria is Australia’s second-smallest state (roughly the size of the British Isles) and there is so much to see and do.
From pristine beaches, to national parks, to wineries, to lakes and mountains and to possibly our favourite city in Australia, Melbourne, Victoria packs a punch!
On this page you will find our best Victoria travel tips including things to do in Melbourne and on the Great Ocean Road, plus places in country Victoria.
GREAT OCEAN ROAD HIGHLIGHTS
One of Australia's greatest natural attractions, and one of the most popular things to do in Victoria is a road trip along the Great Ocean Road.Â
OUR TIP: Go for longer than just a day trip. We spent two weeks in the region and loved the in-depth perspective. It's so much more than the 12 Apostles.Â
HIGHLIGHTS OF BRIGHT, VICTORIA
Bright is one of our favorite towns in Australia. It will offer a unique perspective as it is one of the few alpine towns in the country.Â
In Bright you'll find a slower pace, a meandering river for swimming and exploring, rail connecting you to wine, beer and delicious food and all the beauty and adventures you'd expect to find in the mountains.Â
OTHER VICTORIAN PLACES OF NATURAL BEAUTY
Here are a few of the places in Victoria we had never heard of before and quickly fell in love with!
Be prepared to be amazed and delighted.
THE BEST OF MELBOURNE
While Sydney is a city of glamour and beauty, Melbourne is the place of culture.
Despite its temperamental weather, it's a city we love to return to for its incredible food and coffee, its vibrant arts and culture, its fun festivals, sporting events and European vibe!
Here are some of our favorite things to do in Melbourne.
