Weekend Getaways in Melbourne and it's Surrounds

Weekend Getaways from the heart to the outskirts of Melbourne

Check out Melbourne's eight distinctive regions, from city to coast, spa country to the goldfields and wineries to wildlife for a Melbourne weekend getaway to remember.

Weekend Getaway to Ballarat

Dreams and aspirations of the gold rush echo in the landscape. Cities and villages, rich in history, fuse with contemporary vibrancy, creativity and style. Art and culture thrive, legends live on and new treasures wait to be unearthed in Ballarat.

Weekend Getaway to Phillip Island

Stand nose to nose with koalas, share a beach with hungry pelicans, watch a colony of fur seals, and walk with penguins. The best part is, on Phillip Island, nature’s happy to get close to you.

Weekend Getaway to Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges

The rolling hills of Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges are dotted with charming towns offering an array of health and beauty treatments, scenic surrounds, a thriving arts and crafts community and award winning food and wine.
