Fortuna Villa

What a wonderful afternoon starting with a plentiful high tea, followed by a tour of this amazing property and ended with further refreshments. The history of this property is fascinating and the love and care Paul & Lisa Banks are devoting to it’s restoration is very apparent. The service on the day was great and Shane the tour guide was first class, highly informative and entertaining. I highly recommend this tour. A must do!!!

Star Cinema

Reviewed By jrtakesontheworld - Australia, null

I was lucky enough to accompany my daughter to the screening of a French film with English subtitles at the Star Cinema, Eaglehawk (Bendigo). The cinema is furnished with one and two seater couches, which contributes to the comfortable and intimate atmosphere. If you like, you can sip a glass of wine or beer and even tea and coffee during the screening, which you can purchase at the kiosk run by volunteers. There are even cute side tables to rest your cup or glass as well as your snacks. Adults around $17.

Breakout Bendigo

Escape games are in Bendigo! Come along with a team of friends and solve mind boggling puzzles, decode hidden messages, unlock locks, use codes and escape within 60 minutes!

Reviewed By Q6044HOerins

Fantastic game with a great story! We just made it out with 8 mins to spare. Phew! Plenty of different styles of clues to solve. The staff are friendly, welcoming and professional. Everything was well organised and ready to go. The young chap who introduces the game is bright, bubbly and sets the scene well. Assistance was given over the radio but nothing was given away, e.g.. we had the right combination, but were lining up the numbers wrong on the lock. So we were able to enjoy the game without wasting precious time. We made it out and were met by the radio lady who went through the story in extra detail making the experience more REAL. It is great to have these escape rooms in Bendigo and add it to the list of fun experiences and locally run businesses! I think we have the Escape bug now as we're looking forward to going back and trying our skills against the other two games at Breakout Bendigo! - The Benelli's

Bendigo Blues Tram

Reviewed By sonya65 - Melbourne, Australia

Really enjoyed our experience on the Blues tram last Saturday. The artists were Hailey Calvert and Bill Barber and both were fabulous. Listening to them trundling along the streets of Bendigo on a 1929 tram was a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours. Drinks were available if you wanted them and a couple of stops along the way. Highly recommend if you are heading to Bendigo.

We were fortunate to be the only ones in our tour group and found the tour of the 2nd level of the mine to be every educational and awesome. Our tour guide Zoey was awesome and gave us a great tour and knowledge of the mine and Bendigos gold history. Definately need a little time to look around the surdace at the displays. Overall a great day out

Bendigo Art Gallery

Established in 1887, Bendigo Art Gallery is the largest, and one of the oldest regional galleries in Australia. The Gallery's collection is extensive and varied with an emphasis on 19th century European art and Australian art from 1800s onwards, alongside a strong collection of contemporary Australian art. The collection is complimented by dynamic temporary exhibitions and a diverse range of public programs and events.

For a small regional gallery, Bendigo Art Gallery continues to deliver. It has been one of only a few galleries to feature the Archibald Prize outside the major cities. And then there is the special events. The Age of Couture, The Grace Kelly Exhibition, The Marilyn Monroe exhibition and recently the Tudor to Windsor Exhibition featuring painting from the royal family dating back to the Age of the Tudors. And this is just in recent times. Bendigo shouold be very proud of their Gallery and the Curating staff.
