12 days in Melbourne Itinerary

The state of Victoria crown jewel, Melbourne boasts shaded streets, leafy residential neighborhoods, vibrant street life, and a picturesque city center.

Venture out of the city with trips to Monash University (in Clayton), Werribee Open Range Zoo (in Werribee) and The Great Ocean Road (in Torquay). Dedicate the 21st (Sat) to wine at some of the top wineries in the area. On the 22nd (Sun), give your taste buds a day to remember with a local gastronomic tour. There's much more to do: admire the natural beauty at Royal Botanic Gardens, admire the masterpieces at National Gallery of Victoria, enjoy breathtaking views from Eureka Skydeck, and contemplate the long history of Old Melbourne Gaol.
