Our first Expedition with the company and from the very beginning we were very impressed by the information we initially received through to the care given for the transfer to the airport at the end. The itinary and staff were first rate we always felt that it was our trip and all the tour group were looked after. The bikes were all good and even if we had any minor issues they were sorted. The tour was not a "holiday" but a great experience of riding across South America with the added advantage of not worrying about where to stop, get fuel, food or border crossings so all win win. We will be very likely to use this company again.

Who knew Melton had such a great botanic garden? Manned almost entirely by enthusiastic volunteers, it has the most amazing eucalypts-types that are not commonly seen. The West Australian garden is also lovely. The garden is a wonderful example of achieving excellence on a shoe string budget. Community involvement is crucial to its success-the Gardens employ meaningful work for people on the long-term unemployment, people with disabilities, the local indigenous community and TAFE colleges. Very inspiring!
Great place for a nature stroll and pack a picnic and lunch by the water..

4. Jeff Jones Plants and Produce

Reviewed By LynG3340 - Bacchus Marsh, Australia
A wonderful place to shop for fruit, vegetables, eggs, plants and other local produce such as honey. It is located just off the historically interesting Avenue of Honour, which is bordered by market Gardens. Seasonal produce - especially strawberries, cherries, stone fruits, apples - is particularly good and very reasonably priced. There is often a range of varieties of vegetables available (e.g., potatoes) that one does not see in supermarkets. There is some vintage farm machinery in the grounds, and parking is never a problem. The staff are always welcoming.

It was an awesome experience by picking our own cherries from a tree. It was a great bonding for family and friends too. The place is too huge and trees were not that tall that you will be able to enjoy the fruit picking in Bacchus Marsh. Yummy sweet cherries at its best

As a family of 5 adults, we all had fun picking the stone fruits. The nectarines are juicy and sweet. The peach are also lovely. The apricots at the front were much better than the ones at the back. The plums were good too.
They were no cherries left which is unusual as we were here last year same time and we had loads of cherries. From memory last year we didn't have to pay for cherry picking but this year there is a fee. The stone fruit picking was free.
Check before entering as other aces charge entry per person for stone fruit picking. This adds to the cost. By the time you pay $10 per person, you are down $50 before you even begin. Then you pay per kg for the fruit you pick. Expensive fruit as it turns out. If there was no entry fee, I would be returning more often to pick my own fruit and would end up with more buckets each time. The entry fee deters returning customers.
German staff friendly enough. Instructions given to where to go for the various fruit.
