3 Best Day Trips from Melbourne to Mornington Peninsula, Daylesford, and the Yarra Valley | Condé Nast Traveler

"This nature park and bushland haven is the place to be when you want to get up close to the weird and wonderful world of Australian wildlife. Watch koalas snoozing high in the branches of eucalyptus trees, walk through a huge aviary that’s home to colorful native parrots, or just check out crazy critters like echidnas, Tasmanian devils, and wombats. If you’ve never had the opportunity to become acquainted with the wide variety of Australian animals, from kangaroos to cassowaries, this is an excellent place to start. If you’ve got kids and teenagers with you, then you absolutely have to take them along." - Carrie Hutchinson
