The Dandenong Ranges (Dandenongs) are Melbourne’s essential near-to-city tourist experience – and the best way to enjoy them, from one end to another, is from one of our old-school Chevrolets … America’s all-time favourite automobile!

When the clocks have been pushed forward, Melbourne’s bayside is treated to extra evening light to soak up the balmy seasonal air and luscious sunset displays across the water from the west.

And it goes even better when being moved around in our 1956 Chevrolet, cruising the beach roads with windows down, breeze in the hair and some cool jazz tracks from ‘back-in-the-day’ setting a fun and relaxing scene.

You can take this tour as it comes, leaving from the CBD and heading south via Albert Park Lake and Fitzroy Street. to the waterfront and then south. Maybe an ice cream stop at Half Moon Bay and a quick stroll by the shore? Or hold that thought for a wine, beer or cocktail back up the road in Port Melbourne – you can mix it up with a quick photo stop at Brighton Beach or St. Kilda Pier too. There are so many ways to do this. Return is to the CBD, perhaps out front of a cheeky little roof-top bar or restaurant to stretch the evening even further.

This tour is great for travellers wanting a quintessential Melbourne experience.
