2 Day Great Ocean Road Luxury Tour from Melbourne

This 2-day coastal journey stretches across Victoria's most dramatic seaboard, moving beyond the standard hit-and-run itinerary. You'll base yourself in Apollo Bay for the night, allowing proper time at each stop rather than racing between them. Small groups (capped at 11) travel in air-conditioned comfort with a knowledgeable local guide who points out wildlife and navigates you through limestone cliffs, rainforest walks, and the famous stone stacks. Accommodation and water are sorted; meals aren't.

Gold Coast 2-Hour Hidden Island Jetski Tour from Surfers Paradise

Tear across Gold Coast waterways on a jet ski, starting from Surfers Paradise and powering through the Broadwater's islands, sandbars, and mangrove passages. This 3.5-hour outing gives you full control—throttle hard or cruise leisurely—with a midway breather at a beachside bar on South Stradbroke Island. A guide pilots their own ski alongside you, keeping tabs on the group as you navigate river turns, coastal scenery, and sheltered coves before the adrenaline-fuelled return leg.

From Yulara: Uluru, Kata Tjuta, Kings Canyon and MacDonnell Range

When Noah from our BugBitten team ran this five-day Red Centre loop, it was genuinely remote—Uluru, Kata Tjuta, Kings Canyon, and the MacDonnell Ranges in one hit. You're camping under actual dark skies (swag one night, eco tents the next), hiking ancient gorges, swimming in desert waterholes, and soaking up First Nations stories at Australia's most sacred site. The pace is steady but purposeful; this isn't a coach-window tour. Small groups mean you're not jostling with crowds at sunrise, and the guides know the country—both the geology and the cultural weight of it. Five days is the sweet spot to feel the desert properly without burning out.

Nature Wildlife Grampians Hiking Day Tour

When Lily from our BugBitten team ran this 12-hour Grampians hiking tour, it felt nothing like the cookie-cutter stuff you usually get. The outfit's honest approach—small groups, real guides, proper connection to the landscape—shows in how they've structured the day. You're hitting the Grampians' standout peaks and ridgelines across Victoria's rugged terrain, stopping often enough to actually absorb what you're seeing rather than just ticking boxes. It's designed for people who want walking and nature without the corporate polish.

Noosa Heads Jet Ski Adventure Tour

When Jake from our team took the controls of a jet ski at Noosa Heads, he carved across the bar and into the national park waters without needing a licence or prior experience. The tour runs for 45 minutes, an hour, or 1.5 hours depending on your appetite, and you're guided the whole way past First Point and Little Cove where dolphins, turtles, and seasonal whales (July–October) show up if you're lucky. Passengers ride free, which is a genuine bonus for anyone tagging along.

Barossa Valley Small Group Wine Tour Max of 8 Guest with Lunch

When Sarah from our BugBitten team ran this Barossa Valley tour, she found something genuinely different from the standard cellar door shuffle. The guide's long-standing relationships with award-winning winemakers mean you're tasting in their actual workspaces, not sitting at a polished counter — talking directly with the people who made what's in your glass. It's capped at 8 guests, which keeps the day relaxed and conversational rather than rushed. You'll taste 7–10 pours at each stop, often straight from barrel or from allocations you won't find on public lists. Lunch is a proper feed at the historic Stockwell Hotel. The whole thing runs 8 hours, door to door, and includes pickup from your accommodation.

You'll visit hand-picked locations—sunset vistas or exclusive neighbourhood spots—while your guide captures candid moments that actually feel like your trip, not a postcard. Finish with a digital folder of minimum 25 edited photos, enough to remember why you came.

Pirate Life Brewery Tour

When Em from our BugBitten team ran this tour, we got the full picture of how Pirate Life actually makes their beer — not just the finished product. You're walked through the brewery floor, see the grain-to-glass process, and hear the crew explain what drives each brew. It's a straight-up hour that finishes with tastings and a full pint of your pick. The vibe is working brewery: honest, unpretentious, and geared toward anyone who wants to know what's behind the label.

Mudgee's Secrets and Hidden History Walking Tour

When Noah from our team ran this walking tour through Mudgee, we got the real local lowdown on a town that punches well above its weight historically. Mudgee's the second-oldest inland European settlement west of the Blue Mountains, and the guides—both from families rooted here since the 1850s—stitch together stories of the Wiradjuri people, colonial ambition, religious stoushes, secret tunnels, and a truly impressive pub count. It's a brisk hour that covers ground fast but stays grounded in actual local knowledge rather than tourist waffle. The town itself feels genuinely lived-in and unpretentious, packed with colonial architecture that actually has something worth saying behind it.

Fly by private helicopter from [Melbourne](/places/melbourne) to Levantine Hill Estate in the Yarra Valley for a four-hour experience combining aerial views with lunch and wine. Your helicopter touches down on the estate's front lawn, where you'll move straight into a five-course shared meal paired with tastings of the vineyard's own wines. Suited to those after something beyond the standard winery visit—the flight spans Melbourne's eastern suburbs, Mount Dandenong, and the valley's patchwork of vineyards en route.

Chardonnay Tasting at Winmark Wines

When Charlie from our BugBitten team rolled through Winmark Wines in the Hunter Valley, we found a straightforward chardonnay tasting that delivers without pretension. Over 45 minutes, you'll work through five estate-grown chardonnays paired with sparkling water, nuts, dried fruit, and their own olives — solid nibbles that actually complement the wine. The vineyard views are genuinely lovely, and the crew welcomes everyone from curious first-timers to serious drinkers, plus families and pooches. There's art and sculpture to poke around too if you've got the energy. It's the kind of spot that feels welcoming rather than snooty, and your tasting fee knocks off the cost if you buy three bottles or more.

Gold Coast Segway Sightseeing Tour

When Tom from our BugBitten team rolled out on a Segway from Southport, the Gold Coast revealed itself at a pace that felt both leisurely and novel. You glide along the Broadwater's waterfront pathways, passing moored yachts, kite surfers, and parkland stretches with Surfers Paradise's high-rises framing the horizon. The route spans roughly 90 minutes to two and a half hours, mixing the novelty of learning to balance on the machine with genuine coastal scenery — pelicans, sea breezes, and that particular Gold Coast blend of glitz and beachside calm. It's the kind of tour that works best if you're game for something a bit different and don't mind a handful of training wheels upfront.

Yarra Valley Wine and Healesville Sanctuary Private Tour

When Sarah from our team ran this private tour, we started early at Healesville Sanctuary spotting koalas and kangaroos in proper bushland rather than a zoo setup, then headed into the Yarra Valley wine region for tastings at local producers. The valley itself is rolling vineyards an hour north-east of Melbourne, attracting a mix of serious wine lovers and casual day-trippers escaping the city. We wrapped with lunch overlooking vines and a chocolate stop on the way back. The whole thing runs 8–9 hours door-to-door in a private Mercedes, which meant no fighting for attention in a big group — there's a cap of 7 people.

40 minute Magical Morning Camel Tour on Cable Beach, Broome

When Alex from our BugBitten team booked the 40-minute Cable Beach camel ride in Broome, we knew we were ticking off an Aussie bucket-list moment. Red Sun Camels run the show here — these are the animals that have become as much a part of Broome's identity as the Indian Ocean itself. You'll ride out along the sand at a gentle pace, get the lowdown on how camels landed in Australia and what makes each of these creatures tick, then head back. It's short, cruisy, and works best as a dawn or late-afternoon slot when the beach isn't heaving.

You hit Dingo Beach Hotel, Montes Reef Resort, and Cape Gloucester Resort, with swimming at a stinger-netted beach and downtime by pools thrown in. It's low-key stuff: small groups, local driver know-how, and the kind of vibe that suits couples, mates on a long weekend, and cruise passengers after a few hours away from the ship. Nothing fancy, but the coastline and the pace work well together.

You roll through residential pockets and markets in a small air-conditioned minivan, stopping for proper tastings: cheese and cured meats, fresh seafood, a vanilla slice with coffee, and a pub beer. The real win is the built-in free time at each stop. You're not herded. It's four-and-a-half hours, no queues, no forced march, and it reads like a local showing mates around rather than a tick-box tour.
