OVERVIEW
Australia’s bustling capital of Melbourne will make a once-in-a-lifetime holiday with that special someone. It’s the perfect honeymoon destination for those who like a little bit of everything – whether it be relaxed strolls along the white sands, exploring the city’s major sights and attractions or heading downtown to try out some of the best bars and restaurants by the Yarra River.
Melbourne is perhaps best known for its cultural diversity, which is sure to cater for all interests. You may choose to spend an afternoon wandering through Melbourne’s famous 19th-century laneways in which you’ll discover vibrant street art, independent bars and cafes and unique boutiques if you fancy a spot of retail therapy. The city is also flourishing with a lively arts and culture scene where you’ll discover interesting exhibitions and live performances of all genres. To be in the heart of the action, don’t forget to visit the Australian capital’s famous Federation Square. The exploring becomes the key magnetism of visiting Melbourne, so prepare to walk freely to see what you discover – whether it be underground delights or new heights in some of the city’s rooftop attractions.
Wildlife lovers venturing to Melbourne can’t miss out on a visit to Victoria’s Philip Island, which is located just 90 minutes from the city. An area of natural beauty, you’ll get to see some of Australia’s wildlife in their natural habitat. If you’re lucky, you may spot humpback whales making a splash off Queensland and you’ll even have the opportunity to get up, close and personal with koalas, penguins and seals – a memory you and your loved one will always remember.
Upon heading back to Melbourne, why not draw your honeymoon to a close with a romantic cruise along the Yarra River, to see the glorious city from a whole new perspective?
