Viet Booking is honored to be the first to introduce a unique bay tour program featuring a series of extremely attractive sightseeing spots. The "Around Phillip Bay" tour is designed especially for sea lovers and photography enthusiasts.
TOUR PROGRAM:
Victoria State Rose Garden: This rose garden is part of a vast estate donated by the Thomas Chirnside family to the Victorian State Government. Covering about 5 hectares, it is beautifully designed with over 5000 roses of various colors, and more are continuously being planted. The roses bloom from October to May, attracting many visitors, especially during the annual Rose Festival. Here, you are sure to capture many stunning photos of the vibrant roses.
Geelong Harbour: Geelong is the second-largest city in Victoria. You will visit the Geelong waterfront in the city center and have the opportunity to take many beautiful and impressive photos.
Queenscliff: You will stop to photograph the impressive straight, tall trees lining the road into this port town. In Queenscliff, you will visit the lighthouse with panoramic views of Port Phillip Bay and see giant rays, as large as double beds, swimming leisurely in the harbor. Queenscliff offers a unique experience not found elsewhere.
Ferry Across the Bay: This is your chance to enjoy the relaxing moments in the sea breeze. With a bit of luck, you might encounter whales or dolphins. From May to October, Antarctic whales come here to winter. These giant whales often rest in the bay and swim out to the ocean to hunt. Crossing the bay by ferry gives you a rare chance to see whales in their natural habitat. From October to April, it's the migration season for bottlenose dolphins. Pods of bottlenose dolphins come to rest in the calm Port Phillip Bay. These playful and energetic dolphins often chase after boats, leaping out of the water as if playing a game of tag.
The Big Goose: 1 A beautiful farm with all kinds of animals, including farm animals like sheep, goats, donkeys, two-hump camels, Bactrian camels, alpacas, and llamas. Australian animals such as kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, and deer can also be found. There’s also an experience of riding a tractor to tour the vast farm. The farm is so fun and engaging that you can spend the whole day playing with the animals without getting bored.
Half Moon Bay: This beautiful bay in Melbourne offers an exciting climbing experience along the rocky cliffs beside the white sandy beach. After a few minutes of hopping over large rocks, you'll be amazed by the stunning cliff and ocean views that unfold before your eyes. This is a fantastic opportunity to take unique and beautiful photos of the picturesque and wild "Half Moon Bay."
Brighton Bathing Boxes: These colorful bathing boxes at Brighton are not only famous in Melbourne but also known worldwide. This is a must-visit check-in spot for young people exploring Melbourne.
From 6-7pm, you will return to the meeting point, saying goodbye with many memories and a collection of spectacular photos after a day of exploration.
