Day Tours from Melbourne
All of our tours except the Extended Tours are Day Trips From Melbourne. The major difference with our tours, compared to tours from other businesses, is that with us, you begin your adventure to country Victoria by Fast Efficient Train, and are not in a bus stuck in traffic on some freeway.
Who wants to be on tour and stuck in a traffic jam in the city, causing pollution, when you could be relaxed sitting in a Fast Train watching the city disappear behind you. The V/Line trains have comfortable seats, large panoramic windows to view the scenery, are air conditioned and have toilet facilities.
You depart and return to Melbourne from Southern Cross Railway Station on Spencer Street. There are Free trams on Flinders St, Collins St and Bourke St that can get you to Southern Cross Railway Station from your motel/hotel. You will need your MYKI Card to get onto the V/Line trains. We have several Railway Station Tourism Hubs that we meet & greet you, or wish you farewell from and they are Ballan, Ballarat, Bendigo, Castlemaine or Geelong.
The trains are all part of our commitment to the environment to Reduce Our Carbon Emissions, have Carbon Neutral Tours and Reduce Our Impact on Climate Change. On tour with us, you have the knowledge that you are Treading Softly on the Environment.
To begin your Day Trip From Melbourne to country Victoria with Golden Nugget Discovery Tours, travel with V/Line trains and arrive relaxed at one of the Railway Station Tourism Hubs to start your Adventure.
