Garden State Tours was born from a simple idea that the best way to experience Victoria is not just to see it, but to truly explore it.

The great Australian road trip, for generations, has been an intrinsic part of Aussie culture. And still to this day, if you really want to experience the great southern land, you have got to hit the road.

Inspired by Victoria's rich landscapes, culture, and iconic road trips, Garden State Tours is built to help locals and visitors rediscover what makes this region special.

Discover the stories of the Gold Rush Era, cruise along Australia's longest river on a Murray River heritage paddle steamer, explore one of Victoria's spectacular National Parks, marvel at the largest outdoor art gallery of the Silo Art Trail or follow the life and legend of notorious Ned Kelly. Whatever you are passionate about, Garden State Tours can help create your perfect trip.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
