Melbourne & Victoria

Victoria has something for everyone, whether you’re interested in wine or wildlife, hiking or spas, cosmopolitan cities or wide open spaces, coastline or mountains. Begin your stay in Melbourne, arguably the food, fashion and sports capital of Australia. Spend at least three nights and get an insider’s glimpse to the city on a walking tour with a great guide, check out a local sporting event, wander along the river, go shopping, visit the galleries…

Like Sydney, there are many daytrips available from Melbourne, but all of these regions are also worth spending a few nights if you have the time to explore further. The dramatic coastline of the Great Ocean Road by car, helicopter, or multi-day guided walk, the spa country and foodie heaven of Daylesford, the wine, wildlife, and forested mountains of the Yarra Valley, or the penguins, dolphins, golf and farms of the Mornington Peninsula…decisions are difficult, but at least you can be sure that there aren’t any bad choices!

Get in Touch

Esplanade arranged a wonderful New Zealand adventure for my wife and myself in 2020…just a couple of months prior to Covid shutting down the world! During this difficult time for the planet, the staff from Esplanade continued to reach out to us on how they recommended we deal with our travel plans and the expenditures we had previously committed to. They continuously updated our travel plans and made all the necessary adjustments to our itineraries. Almost three years to the day later, we were able to enjoy our New Zealand trip. The reservations, excursions, and overall recommendations made by Esplanade were fantastic! We commented several times that their commitment to the smallest of details was very apparent. Our flights were perfectly spaced, our drivers all showed up on time, and our accommodations and excursions were beyond expectations. We now plan on trusting Esplanade for our future travels to Africa and Europe. We cannot recommend them more.
