EXPLORE THE HISTORY AND CULTURE OF BALLARAT AND SOVEREIGN HILL

Ballarat was put on the map by the Gold Rush that consumed Victoria in the 1850s, and on our Ballarat and Sovereign Hill tours you will have the chance to experience what life was like during this exciting time in 1850s Australia. The trip centres on one of the most famous places to visit in Ballarat; the award-winning Sovereign Hill outdoor museum, which is located on the site of a former gold mine. The museum offers a highly authentic insight into life during the Gold Rush, giving you the chance to pan for gold, take a trip down a gold mine, or explore the streets in a horse-drawn carriage.

As well as taking in the region’s vibrant past, it is also essential to explore its bustling present. Ballarat is one of the largest cities in Australia, and is a hive of arts and cultural activity. It also boasts plenty of attractive Victorian architecture, with a particular highlight being the Ballarat Botanical Gardens on the shores of Lake Wendouree.

The area around Ballarat is known for its beautiful scenery, with bushlands and wetlands providing homes for many species of native wildlife and flora.
