Where exactly do I meet the tour?

The tour offers hotel pickup from central Melbourne between 7:00 and 8:00 AM. Your confirmed pickup time and any specific instructions will be provided after booking.

Is MacKenzie Falls on the itinerary?

No. MacKenzie Falls is currently closed to all visitors due to Parks Victoria works and will remain closed until at least the second half of 2026. The Balconies rock formation has replaced this stop on the itinerary.

How much walking is involved — is it suitable for all fitness levels?

This is a nature-based walking tour requiring a medium level of fitness. Trails include forest paths and uneven terrain. It is not recommended for guests with significant mobility limitations or young children in prams, as strollers cannot be accommodated on the vehicle.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Do I need to print my ticket?

Mobile tickets are accepted. Simply present your booking confirmation on your phone to your driver-guide at pickup.
