Dandenong Ranges Private Day Tour

Get out of the city and spend a relaxing and peaceful day out in nature in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges which is less than an hour from Melbourne by road. Discover the majestic and ancient forests on a leisurely walk and spot wildlife. If we’re lucky we might run into the beautiful and elusive Lyrebird. Learn about the flora and fauna, as well as the history and culture of our First Nations People who are the traditional custodians of the land. Enjoy a wholesome lunch at a homely and cosy restaurant. After lunch explore a couple of beautiful cool climate gardens of the Dandenong Ranges or tweak the tour a bit to do one garden and spend time in one of the quaint villages for shopping or a wander instead. This is a private tour for either a single person, or a couple or a group of 3, so can be customised on the day. Tour starts at 10.00am and finishes at around 4.30pm which means you don’t have to get up early, and still have plenty of time in the evenings to do other things.

Take a leisurely walk in the main forest of the Dandenong Ranges, where you will be amongst the second tallest trees in the world, the Mountain Ash eucalyptus tree, and the ancient Fern tree forest. Soak in the sights and sounds of this beautiful forest.

After our forest walk, we’ll drive to the little village of Kallista to stop over at a cosy restaurant for lunch.

After lunch we’ll drive to the beautiful Alfred Nicholas Gardens, and take a walk and spend time at the Japanese themed lake garden towards the bottom. A popular place for photography.

After the walk in the Alfred Nicholas Gardens, we will drive to the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Gardens to check out the award winning Chelsea Australian Garde, and stroll around the botanic gardens. It’s a kaleidoscope of colour in spring, but is beautiful in all seasons.
