Departing from Melbourne, step aboard Puffing Billy for a nostalgic steam train ride through the Dandenong Ranges, past trestle bridges and lush forests.
Departing from Melbourne, begin your adventure with a visit to Belgrave Station, the gateway to the iconic Puffing Billy Railway. Explore the charming heritage station, snap photos with the iconic steam engine, and meet the friendly train drivers for a picture-perfect moment. Be sure to stop by the souvenir shop to pick up a unique memento of your journey before climbing aboard the Puffing Billy Train.
As the train winds through the breathtaking Dandenong Ranges, feel the thrill of dangling your legs over the side while crossing the famous Monbulk Creek Trestle Bridge, suspended nearly 20 metres above lush fern gullies. Your journey concludes at the Lakeside Visitor Centre, where you can stroll through the scenic Emerald Lake Park, capture memorable photos, explore interactive exhibits, or simply relax at the café and soak in the tranquil surroundings.

We recommend dressing according to the weather - checking a reliable weather app before your tour can help you choose the best outfit. However, keep in mind that Melbourne’s weather can be unpredictable, so it’s a good idea to wear light clothing along with some warm layers just in case. Comfortable walking shoes are also essential, as the tour includes various stops and walking opportunities.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
