My hands are outreached with humility and love, because I didn’t realise how much fun a Victoria road trip would be.

This serene Southeast corner of our Great Southern Land, is known for its outstanding natural beauty, coastal drives, mountain vistas and rolling hills and vineyards.

In fact, it’s nicknamed The Garden State, because of its greenery and gorgeous scenery.

If you’re into nature, sipping wine under the stars, hiking and wildlife watching, then traveling around Victoria in Australia is one of the best road trips in Aus for you!

In this guide, we share our perfect 16-day Victoria road trip itinerary which takes you on a loop around the state, ticking off the iconic attractions like the Great Ocean Road and Melbourne.

So when you’re ready for adventure, pack your vehicles, and let’s get exploring!

I arrived and my soul said, “Don’t move. Just stay awhile and savour what Victoria has.“

It was gentle, soul serving and uplifting, filled with memorable moments and beautiful people.

I would say you need a minimum of 14 days to road trip Victoria, but our itinerary is for 16 days as we feel you should spend more time in a few areas.
