As pioneers in bringing tourists to the Mornington Peninsula, we are one of the longest-running operators of wine and produce tours departing Melbourne to this region. We have a range of attractions for you to discover on this tour.
We begin by going up to Main Ridge and enjoying the views from ‘Arthurs Seat Lookout’, admiring the panoramas across the bay.
This goat dairy farm located in the bush offers a delightful tasting experience. They provide generous platters with various cheeses ranging from soft to hard. Visitors will feel a sense of comfort in the rural setting. Additionally, there is an opportunity to meet the charming resident goats with floppy ears.

Two wineries are visited during the day, starting with Red Hill Estate for a wine-tasting experience and ending at T’Gallant Vineyard for a tasting of their award-winning cool climate wines.

The farm orchard is a small, family-run establishment that produces traditional apple ciders, high-quality olive oils, and cider vinegar. The dedication and attention to detail put into each bottle of their cider is evident with every sip.

The town of Flinders offers a variety of galleries, shops, cafes, and restaurants for visitors to enjoy. During our visit, there will be an opportunity to explore the town and try the gourmet creations at Mornington Peninsula Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery.
