Travel over the Westgate Bridge as you head past the old major gold mining town of Ballarat to western Victoria stopping in the country town of Beaufort for morning tea. Pass through the town of Arrarat before getting the first glimpse of the Grampians as they come into view from what appears to be from nowhere. Stop at the Brambuk Cultural and Information Center where you’ll learn about the six seasons of the Grampians and the connection the local indigenous have had with the land for thousands of years Continue to the only town inside the park Halls Gap, where guests can purchase lunch from one of the local cafes. Following lunch head into the mountains to Boroka Lookout that overlooks the Western Plains of Victoria and the Mt William, Wonderland and Serra Ranges. Next, stretch your legs with an easy bush walk to the geological icon of the Grampians; The Jaws of Death/Balconies where you are rewarded with great views over Victoria Valley. After the walk, reboard the bus and descend the Mt Difficult Range to Mackenzie Falls. Climb the stairs to the bottom of the falls and take in the natural beauty of the falls and surrounding bush land. As you make your way back to Melbourne, your guide will make sure you get some time to view large mobs of kangaroos that call the Grampians home.

The tour itinerary was really well organised . A lot of nature walks and sightseeing included even though there were long drives involved. Our tour guide Charlie was really friendly, helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend this tour for something different to see from Melbourne and for a relaxed day in the countryside to see natural beauty of Australia

Thank you Brit and Tim for the lovely tour yesterday - thank you for sharing with us your personal stories of each place! Loved discovering grampians with you and was a heartwarming tour with the other explorers :-)

It was a super organized, exciting and wonderful tour. However, Blinky, our tour guide, made it special with his style and knowledge.

Had an amazing experience to the Grampians with tour guides Brittany and Daniel. A highly recommended tour.
