For the Solo Traveller and Friend Groups

The great thing about travelling in Australia is how safe it is, whether as a solo traveller or going around with your girlfriends. Take your time with a road trip to a classic destination in Victoria: the Great Ocean Road. It’s popular for a reason—the drive is amazing, easy, and scenic. If you take your time, there are plenty of stops along the way and quaint towns where you can enjoy local fish and chips and coffee at one of the many cafes, make a pit stop at the Great Ocean Road Brewer, or even stretch your legs and take some photos along the way at Teddy’s or Marriners’ Lookout, Loch Ard Gorge, Gibson Steps and more.

For the Couples Who Want Quality Time

There’s nothing more romantic than hiding away in the mountains and basking in some quality time with your significant other, and the Grampians National Park—which is less than a four-hour drive from Melbourne—is the best place in Victoria to do that. While typically known as an outdoorsy place, it also has much to offer for quiet time. Take your pick from luxurious little cosy cabins to winery visits, scenic mountain vistas, spot kangaroos in the wild at sunset; simply reconnecting with nature. 

For the Young Families

One of the biggest challenges of couples with young children is going to not only a child-friendly destination but also one that can provide adequate enrichment yet fun experiences. Thankfully, Melbourne ticks all those boxes. Take the Puffing Billy, for example, the steam railway that takes visitors through Melbourne’s Dandenong Ranges. It’s a fun activity that couples nature with nostalgic train ride, which is guaranteed to create some core memories. Animals are also always a fun time, and the Melbourne Zoo and Healesville Sanctuary are the perfect place for them to be acquainted. Finally, start the kids young with some culture at the variety of interactive museums available in Melbourne itself.
