We start at 8:30am and travel through to the De Bortoli Vineyard at Dixons Creek, the Valley's largest producer where a tasting of their estate and reserve wines are matched to some superb cheeses.
We then travel to the Valley's first vineyard, Yering Station, for a pre-lunch wine-tasting in the original redbrick winery (circa 1859) building surrounded by local artworks and produce. Lunch is a short walk away through landscaped gardens in a stunning contemporary building with world-class views and cuisine.
The day concludes at the world-famous Healesville Sanctuary, one of Australia's most recognised and acclaimed wildlife sanctuaries. With 30 hectares of bushland, it showcases more than 200 species of Australian wildlife in a distinctly Australian setting. Here, visitors can experience close-up encounters with some of Australia's most unique and captivating wildlife in their natural habitat, including koalas, kangaroos, wombats, emus, dingoes, birds of prey and platypus.
