Get out of the city and spend a relaxing and peaceful day out in nature in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges which is less than an hour from Melbourne by road. Discover the majestic and ancient forests on a leisurely walk and spot wildlife. If we're lucky we might run into the beautiful and elusive Lyrebird. Learn about the flora and fauna, as well as the history and culture of our First Nations People who are the traditional custodians of the land. Enjoy a wholesome lunch at a homely and cosy restaurant. After lunch explore a couple of beautiful cool climate gardens of the Dandenong Ranges or tweak the tour a bit to do one garden and spend time in one of the quaint villages for shopping or a wander instead. This is a private tour for either a single person, or a couple or a group of 3, so can be customised on the day. Tour starts at 10.00am and finishes at around 4.30pm which means you don't have to get up early, and still have plenty of time in the evenings to do other things.

Excellent experience! We can't praise Jay enough. Due to unforeseen events, we couldn't stick with our original plan. Jay came up with a creative solution that allowed us to sort out our issues, while still getting a taste of the forest that he clearly loves. Our time in the car was filled with delightful conversation on a wide variety of topics, and our time in the forest was calming and awe-inspiring. If you have a chance to tour with Jay, grab it!

Jay was extremely fun to hang with and made this tour very personable. He has great knowledge of the forests and is easy to communicate with. It feels like you're with a friend more than a tour guide who is completing a check list of things! I went solo and he also kindly adjusted to my pace and helped me to take photos. Definitely recommend signing up a tour with Jay if you are in Melbourne. He is able to customise the tour to your desires based on where you want to explore too. Thanks for a great afternoon, Jay!

Jay was a great host, made us felt comfortable and we had insightful conversations throughout the day which was nice. Prior to the day trip there was swift communication in regards to customising and finalising the itinerary. Unfortunately we couldn’t do William Ricketts Sanctuary due to damage from the storms, so we chose to do the Skyhigh Mount Dandenong beforehand but on day the weather became foggy and there wasn’t much of a view to see of the City. Jay then took us to Brighton Beach to get a nice photo of the City instead. Dandenong Range walk itself was pretty serene and it was wonderful to know that the ancestors preserved the forests.
