If your group loves nothing more than a good tipple, treat them to a beer-tasting tour. One of the best group activities in Melbourne, a beer-tasting tour offers a unique opportunity to explore some of the city’s breweries, bars and more. Learn how beer is made, try an assortment of refreshing local brews and even enjoy a beer-matched lunch. Your group might find a new favourite drink or two, try their hand at the brewing process or simply enjoy a great day out together.
Does your group have a competitive streak? Do they love any activity that involves a touch of action? Treat them to a day of paintballing fun. With some great venues and packages to choose from, a paintball session is easily one of the best group activities in Melbourne. Once you’ve donned your protective gear and received a safety briefing, you’ll lock and load your paintball markers and battle it out to see who reigns supreme. With an assortment of games and terrain to explore, it’s sure to be a great, action-packed day out.
Exhilarating, entertaining and the perfect option for when the weather outside is less than stellar; escape rooms are one of the most popular group activities in Melbourne for a good reason. Immersed in a themed room, your group must work together to solve a series of riddles and puzzles before your time runs out. Battle the clock, scour the room for clues and revel in the cleverly curated experience. Be transported to the Roaring ‘20s, step back into the 1940s or spend time exploring another equally intriguing scenario. With plenty of brain-teasing escape rooms to choose from across the Victorian capital, narrowing it down to just one will be your first challenge!
If your group happens to like the finer things in life, treat them to high tea in Melbourne. Opt for a classic high tea, complete with sandwiches, cakes, pastries and more, or select a package that comes complete with tasty cocktails, sparkling wine and other pairings. Take your experience to the next level with a cruise along the Yarra River, top off a great day at the National Gallery of Victoria or revel in a traditional high tea at The Windsor’s Victorian-era dining room. Delicious, a little different and a great excuse to spend some quality time with friends or family, high tea makes for one of the finer Melbourne group activities.
Ever wondered how wine is made? Looking to learn more about the different varietals you’ll find stocked on the shelves of your local bottle shop? Treat your group to a wine-tasting tour or a winery visit. Settle in for a masterclass in all things wine, learning about the process involved in transforming grapes into the wine you know and love, sample some fantastic food and wine pairings or enjoy the convenience of a chauffeured tour that will transport your group between locations. From some of Melbourne’s inner-city wine bars to some of the Yarra Valley’s top wine producers, there’s an experience to suit almost every wine-loving group, interest and budget.
