At the Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary, you'll have free time to wander through the Australian bushland. The zookeepers will tell you about the platypus, parrots, kangaroos, wombats and the koala. More than 200 species of native birds, mammals and reptiles live at Healesville.
Continue to the Yarra Valley wine district, where the varieties grown include Shiraz, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Visit a local winery for a wine tasting and enjoy lunch in the restaurant. Rochford Winery prides itself on the production of premium-quality wines that express the true character of their vineyard sites. Sample award-winning wines at the cellar door, appreciate the landscape by looking out over the estate from the observation tower or take in a bit of nature with a stroll through the grounds.
After the lunch, you will be heading to Fergusson winery, situated right in the heart of the Yarra Valley. Fergusson is an iconic Yarra Valley estate with years of history behind it. Sample a glass of wine before you return to Melbourne.
