Frequently asked questions

What is the seasonal food stop on this tour?

From November to April, the day includes strawberry picking at Rocky Creek. Outside the strawberry season, the itinerary swaps this for a visit to the Mornington Peninsula Chocolaterie, so there is still a local food experience to enjoy.

How much walking is involved?

The day is easy-going and built around short walks, coastal lookouts and photo stops rather than a long hike. You should be comfortable getting in and out of the vehicle and walking at outdoor coastal locations in comfortable shoes. The bus is not wheelchair accessible. A foldable wheelchair or walking aid may be accommodated by prior arrangement if you can climb the bus steps.

Is there time for swimming during the tour?

The coastal stops are designed for sightseeing, short walks and photos rather than swimming. You will still have time to enjoy Portsea’s shoreline, London Bridge and the colourful bathing boxes, but swimwear is not needed for the planned itinerary.

Does the tour operate in wet or windy weather?

Yes. The tour operates in changing weather, and the guide may adjust the order or individual stops when conditions require it. Bring layers and a windproof or waterproof jacket so you can comfortably enjoy the coastal stops.

Is commentary available in languages other than English?

The live guide speaks English, while pre-recorded commentary and written tour information are available in multiple languages through the free Explore Australia app. Download the app before departure, bring headphones and keep your phone charged. Your access code will be provided on the day.

How long is the tour and when does it return to Melbourne?

This is a full-day experience lasting around 9.5 hours. Pickup is available from selected Melbourne CBD locations, with the estimated return to central Melbourne between approximately 6pm and 6.30pm. Please arrive about 10 minutes before your scheduled pickup time.

Is this tour suitable for families with young children?

Yes. The relaxed sightseeing format and short stops can work well for families, and children must travel with an accompanying adult. Child booster seats must be requested at least 72 hours before departure. Any infant seating arrangements must be confirmed before booking. Strollers cannot be carried on this tour.
