Private Yarra Valley And Puffing Billy Tour
Overview
Experience of a lifetime dangling your feet from an historic much loved steam train called Puffing BIlly. The real life Thomas the Tank Engine, taking you on a natural scenic journey through the lush green mountain side of a once volcanic region of Victoria.
We enjoy a stroll through the gorgeous rainforest whilst observing for rare native wildlife.
After a famous pie shop stop, and a wonder around some local boutique, hand made, tea pot and gift shops, we make our way for some wine tastings and chocolate creations in another famous location, the Yarra Valley; a wonderful winery region in Victoria, and one of the best, not to mention underrated, pristine areas of Southeastern Australia.
