1.Lake Mountain Snow Trip including Yarra Valley Chocolaterie from Melbourne

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 196 reviews · from $129Our pick

Review of the Lake Mountain Snow Trip from Melbourne, with coach transport, snow play, Steavenson Falls, and Yarra Valley chocolate.

“Absolutely waste of Money, it says it is covering Stevnson Falls Display at Stevson Falls says 15 to 30 Mins walk, but Tour guide gave us only 15 mins Absolutely bizarre especially with a 4 year kid, at chicolatarie as well only 30 Mins stop it is crazy he threatened us he will leave us if we do not board bus now. With 4 year old kid 30 mins is barely sufficient to even have a look around no photo ops given at Stevenson Falls or Chocaltarie. I had been with GoWest Tours I felt they were more friendly and more organised and more Human”
