Mornington Peninsula - Private day tour

Combine the best of Europe's coastal living with traditional Aussie charm on the Mornington Peninsula, just an hour from Melbourne.

Explore the galleries, spas and cafes in breezy seaside villages; visit the hinterland for gourmet delights at more than 50 boutique wineries, and walk through the heritage gardens which take you back more than 100 years.

Today you will be hosted on a charming 27-acre farm, which produces premium quality olives, grapes, herbs and vegetables.

Spend time in the kitchen with the chef, cooking in a wood fire oven, then try your hand at curing olives grown on the farm, create handmade sausages in natural skins using fresh herbs and spices from the garden, make mouth-watering gnocchi, or roast beans and make great coffee.

Later in the day you will sample some of the finest food and wine the Mornington Peninsula has to offer.

After lunch you will be taken to taste cool-climate wines from the barrel, freshly made goat's cheese from a local dairy or succulent strawberries and cherries from the fruit farms in the area.

Includes morning tea, lunch, all classes, ingredients and tastings, hotel drop off.
