Day 2: Food & Drink Tour
Melbourne is known for its diverse range of cultures, a fact represented in the food options this city is famous for. Our second day is spent learning why… This morning we visit the historic city landmark known by the locals as 'Vic Market'. Located on the northern fringe of the city, this open-air market is a haven for Australian fruit and vegetables, as well as local and imported gourmet foods. In warmer months, these markets come alive and host midweek hangouts for locals.

Our night is spent watching the mesmerising Phillip Island Penguin Parade where up to 500 Little Penguins return ashore after a day’s fishing.
