Ride a vintage train and visit a winery
Start the day by departing Melbourne and traveling into the Dandenong Ranges. Experience the features of the area, where nature, local history, and culinary options meet in harmony. Take a tour with a local guide who shares stories about the region's history, culture, and more. Ride the Puffing Billy Railway from Belgrave to Menzies Creek, passing through forests and landscapes. Afterward, visit Warburton, where you can get lunch at local cafés or bakeries of your choice (at your own expense). Walk among the Californian redwoods in the Cement Creek Redwood Forest or along scenic trails. End the day with a visit to a Yarra Valley winery, where you can have a glass of wine before heading back to the city.
