Summary

Discover why the Mornington Peninsula is a favorite day-tripping destination for Melbournians. After morning pickup at your Melbourne hotel, relax in an air-conditioned minivan on the drive to your first stop. Enjoy a relaxing soak in the Peninsula Hot Springs, where mineral-rich waters flow from natural springs below ground into a variety of pools surrounded by tranquil landscaping. Enjoy ample leisure time to unwind at amenities such as a hydrotherapy pool, thermal stream gully, reflexology walk, and sauna. Be sure to bring your swimsuit and a towel. Next, satisfy your taste buds with a delicious lunch at a local eatery followed by a wine tasting. In the afternoon, ride the Aurthur's Seat Eagle Gondola and take in panoramic views of Port Phillip Bay and the peninsula. During the summer season (November through April), continue on to Sunny Ridge Strawberry Farm to pick juicy, ripe berries straight from the field (at your own expense) and sample a variety of fruit-flavored products. During the winter, pop in at a Mornington Peninsula winery to sample a variety of wines. Relax on the return drive to Melbourne and be dropped off back at your original departure point.
