Why Hike & Seek?

Small groups. Big landscapes. Good company.

Get your feet on the trail, breathe in the ocean air and share the day with people who are just as happy to be out there. We bring together Victoria’s landscapes, wildlife and local flavours in adventures that feel personal from the first hello.

There’s a lot to love out here.

Let’s get out and experience it together.

A coastline that makes you stop mid-conversation. A forest that feels a few degrees cooler as soon as you step beneath the trees. A wombat going about its day beside the track.

These are the moments we love sharing. Our day tours combine the places you’ve been looking forward to with walks, wildlife spotting and time to enjoy the landscape around you.

You bring your curiosity. We’ll take care of the route.

The thought behind the adventure

A well-planned day leaves room to enjoy it.

The order of the stops matters. So does the walking route, the lunch break and knowing when to pause for a view. We think about how those pieces fit together.

On the Great Ocean Road, we head inland to the Twelve Apostles first, then work back along the coast. The reverse route helps us plan around the busiest periods while including rainforest, waterfalls and wildlife along the way.

In the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley, a forest hike and an afternoon of local flavours bring two different regions together in one day. On Phillip Island, coastal walking and koalas lead into dinner in Cowes and penguins at sunset.

Victoria’s destinations can be a long drive from Melbourne. These are full days, with road time as well as time outdoors. We plan breaks and share stories along the way, so the journey is part of the experience.

Why small groups matter

Small enough to get to know each other.

With a maximum of 10 guests on our public tours, everyone is part of the day. There’s room for questions, conversation and sharing whatever catches your eye.

A guide alongside you

Your guide joins you on the walks, shares local knowledge and helps you notice the details along the trail.

A welcome for solo travellers

Come on your own or bring someone along. A small group makes it easy to start a conversation and share the experience.

Shared discoveries

A bird call, an unusual plant or a koala in the trees. Looking and listening together can turn a walk into a day full of discoveries.

Personal attention

There’s time to ask questions and get to know your guide. Tell us about any walking concerns before booking so we can help you choose a suitable tour.

The places. The people. The little moments.

The Victoria we love sharing.

Morning coffee from a bakery before we hit the trail.

Fern gullies, towering trees and the sound of a waterfall.

A picnic with a view or a relaxed lunch at a local stop.

Salt in the air and sand on your walking shoes.

The possibility of a kangaroo, koala or echidna along the way.

We enjoy introducing you to local businesses and the character of each region. We also give wildlife space, follow park guidance and take care of the places we visit. Sightings vary naturally, which makes each day a little different.

Fresh air, a little movement and plenty to remember.
