You know you want to hire a campervan to travel Australia but you don’t know where to start? Why not consider the state of Victoria?
Victoria is renowned for its many unique sights and inspiring travelling experiences. It offers a great variety of foods, wines and adventures. It is so much more than amazing sceneries!
First: Melbourne, the cultural and sporting capital of Australia, where you can get free tourist trams and take in the modern and vibrant atmosphere. The city is located along the Yarra River and Port Phillip Bay, where you can find Phillip Island. As well as offering the typical sandy beaches and nature walks, Phillip Island gives the opportunity to witness the evening penguin parade, one of the best wild life experience in the country!


Another popular attraction is definitely the road travelling from Torquay to Warrnambool: The Great Ocean road. This 247 kilometres long road takes you through small fishing villages filled whilst offering stunning views of cliffs, sandy coves, waves and rock formations.
Victoria is also home to the Grampians National Park, a popular holiday destination, filled with European heritage and aboriginal culture; Ballarat, where operating gold mines still exist and where the recreated historical village Sovereign Hill sits; Yarra Valley, with over 90 wineries and the Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary; and also the high country, ideal for adventure activities.
As you can see, Victoria has everything for you to have the time of your life!
