The Wagga Wagga Botanical Gardens are a fantastic destination for all ages. The beautifully maintained gardens showcase a diverse range of plants, offering a peaceful escape or a scenic spot for a stroll. The free-entry zoo is a treat, especially for families, and the miniature railway adds a touch of charm and fun. Kids love the well-equipped playground, and the picnic areas make it easy to spend a full day here. With so much to explore, it’s a must-visit attraction in Wagga Wagga!

Stunning Regional Arts centre and National Glass Space. The various Glass exhibitions were quality works by talented artists. I especially loved the Women exhibition upstairs for Year of the Woman. Hard to believe this contemporary set of buildings is now 40 years old. Thank you Helen for the personalised introduction. ❤️

Well-maintained historic building with displays. Staff were friendly and helpful. Free entry.

A great hike above the surrounding Plains, and only a 20-minute drive from Wagga. The summit hike requires a moderate level of fitness. The trail becomes more demanding toward the summit, but the views are amazing. Plenty of parking, with toilet amenities at the carpark. Take a picnic. There are many opportunities to relax and enjoy a light snack between ascent and decent.

Beautiful historic building with plenty of stories and pieces of history inside to explore. Guide at the front counter was a delight to talk to and was also extremely knowledgeable about the building and the town's history. Be sure to get a demo of the Lamson cash delivery rail system, possibly one of the last standing of its kind in Australia

The Coolamon Fire Museum muster held in October is an interesting event. Current and Vintage Fire Engines are on display in the main street. The street is blocked off closed for the event. Classic and Vintage Car Clubs support muster with a display of classic vehicles. There are demonstrations from the S.E.S. supporting the Fire Fighters. This is a family orientated event. Something for little kids, parents, and granparents.

Truly amazing work, so much better than we expected. There are a lot of other exhibits out the back as well.

Loved this place. Daughter couldn't get enough of the water slides. Whilst these cost 50c a go they're good fun and the general entry is very cheap. You can bring a picnic and there's plenty of shady spots and fun for everyone

Every country town has a point of interest and Narrandera is no different. Make sure you look around, especially at the Tiger Moth Memorial. We stayed at the Bishops Lodge which was very comfortable and quiet. Go look at the railway station too.

5-Star Review for Narrandera Tiger Moth Memorial The Narrandera Tiger Moth Memorial is a fascinating and beautifully preserved piece of history. Dedicated to the World War II training of pilots, this site offers a unique glimpse into Australia’s aviation heritage. The centerpiece, the Tiger Moth aircraft, is displayed with great care and surrounded by informative plaques that provide insights into its historical significance. The memorial is well-maintained, and you can feel the pride the community takes in honoring this part of their history. The location is serene, making it a great spot to reflect and appreciate the sacrifices and achievements of those involved in wartime aviation. It’s a must-visit for history buffs, aviation enthusiasts, and anyone traveling through Narrandera. A wonderful tribute and a true highlight of the town—highly recommended!

We were amazed at all of the awards that Lillypilly has on display and well deserved too. There are a lot of reviews here on sweet and desert wines, but Lillypilly also does great dry reds too. The Shiraz was my favourite owing to it's rich peppery tannin after taste. A full bodied dry red. We also bought other reds too as we were very impressed. Sam was wonderful, giving us complimentary cheese & crackers and with generous pours. This place should be high on your visit list when passing through Leeton.

The Roxy looks incredible after their renovations. The theatre seating is very comfortable, air-conditioning works very well on the hot day we were there, new options for treats and drinks, overall it looks amazing!

Just an awesome place to go. I’ve been a few times now and love it every time. Make sure you book your tour in advance. I recommend asking for the horse drawn cart if you can, but it depends on the day if they offer it or not. There’s a free roaming part of the park at the start with red pandas, tamarins, servals, lemurs, devils, wombats, monkeys, crocs and so on, just awesome. Then you go on the guided tour and the keepers show you around the whole park and share information about the animals. My friend and I did the additional behind the scenes experience with the meerkats this week and it was just AWESOME. They were SO CUTE and even climbing on top of us and everything 😍🩷

Fantastic historic site with fascinating stories. Could do with some TLC maintenance but is a beautiful and moving moderately difficult walk. Walking shoes recommended. Great at sunrise. Plenty of parking.

Exceptionally Helpful and Friendly Service! We had a wonderful experience at the local information hub during our visit. A lovely lady (Karen)working there went out of her way to help us plan our day in the city. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all the local attractions, restaurants options, and even recommended a few hidden gems that we wouldn’t have found on our own. She gave us maps, and suggestions for great places to eat nearby. Her friendly attitude and genuine willingness to help made us feel very welcome. It's clear she enjoys what she does and takes pride in assisting visitors. This kind of personalized service really makes a difference when you're new to a city. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in town — especially if you’re lucky enough to be helped by her!

I've been to quite a few pioneer villages around Australia and this has to be one of the best. As usual its mostly looked after by loving volunteers but this one is superior with around 50 carefully reconstructed and fitted out buildings. Even has a train station. The staff are absolutly lovely and the museum sections are so informative. High calibre exhibits and very good and very interesting local history information. Our visit prompted us to emediatly find a local italian grocer to grab local authentic italian pasta and wine which we thouroughly enjoyed that evening :0)

Really enjoyable experience. The shearing demo was top. Jack was an excellent demonstrator and told us all about shearing and shearer life.

Important small museum about an interesting and a bit disturbing episode during the II World War when approximately 2000 Jewish men who had left Germany for obvious reasons were deported from Britain to a camp in Hay, Australia, in 1940. The reason was their German citizenship. Men were treated well but it still important to remember this place. The names of all men who were held here are shown on the screen.

The premises has a visitor information center and a discovery museum where historical remains and artefacts have been saved. There are interactive visual guides telling the tales of the initial days of town existence. Also, in the same vicinity is a skate park, a public toilet, filter water tap, a cafe, old wintong school building, an old prison, little playground for kids. Its a nicely maintained facility by the council with mowed lawns and beautiful flowers. You will also find some old machinery on-site.

Love our sunset tour with German! He made lots of stops along the way, provided ample info, and brought lots of beverages and snacks! Such a gorgeous place to be and appreciated having such an experienced guide, especially driving at dusk with all the animals! He def loves animals and is passionate about what he does.

Found this inexpensive wine in London. Definitely worth a try.

Just after breakfast on our first day of touring, we always visit the Mildura Information Centre. We have been to this terrific centre many times over the years and it ALWAYS delivers! The friendly staff go above and beyond to provide any information that you might be looking for. For example, I asked about the history of the world's longest bar (formerly at the Working Man's Club) and they found some information and photocopied it for me. On our most recent visit, we met some more wonderful staff - Carmel and Mel. They both assisted us with all of our enquiries :-) The displays here are well organised and spaced out so that you can walk around and appreciate Mildura and the surrounding regions focussing on key themes in a logical order. There are plenty of brochures about attractions, food and accommodation in Mildura and beyond. There are even brochures about other parts of Victoria and other states in Australia. It's also a terrific place to buy postcards and other souvenirs. If you are a new resident in the region, there's also loads of relevant information. There's a cafe next to the centre if you want to stay a bit longer and grab a bite to eat. There's even an area where friendly local donate books they don't want and you can pick up one or two for free. In short, this place has everything! We always enjoy stopping here and staying up-to-date with the latest information. Keep up the great work :-) Here are some photos from recent visits.

A beautiful stately home in the heart of Mildura, next to the arts centre. A stunning home. Kept in original 1921 condition. On street parking. Disabled park near front door of gallery. Wheelchair access to ground floor only, but the gallery and theatre has lift access. Great coffee shop and public space to catch up with friends, and chat 5/5 stars

Great watching paddle steamers go through the lock! Very interesting! Go across the lock onto Lock Island and walk around for lots of bird life.

What a surprise. Absolutely worth every moment. Mario and his offsider where amazing. Remarkable people, kind, funny, hard working and the tour is lot of fun. Free samples and the orange juice is out of this world! Never had better tasting oranges in my whole life. Mandarins as well. So packed with flavour, nice and sweet beyond words. Could not rate our visit any higher. We’ll worth dropping in.

The viewing platform is a great spot for photos at the Darling and Murray River Junction. The parklands contains substantial native vegetation that gives you an appreciation of the riparian landscape, flora and fauna. Well worth a visit.

Very well preserved and presented. We arrived about 15 min before opening and the gentleman on duty was out the front, he opened up early and let us in. Very nice man, very informative. Takes about 30 min to walk through reading the important information, you could spend an hour reading everything. Well worth the visit.

Perry Sandhills was our must see destination because we had promised our kid a chance to run up and down sandhills. And it certainly delivered. Just 15 minutes outside Wentworth, the sandhills are the size of a small town, easy to walk around and discover most things, but it feels like another place altogether. The fine red sand and desert landscape make this a stunning place. A number of films have been shot here, and you can see why when you're there. But it also feels ancient and peaceful. I could imagine nomadic Aboriginal people stopping here, having fires, talking and resting for days before they returned home supplied with all the desert melons they could carry. We wandered the dunes, passing an exorbitant number of desert melons which had obviously been cultivated in the long past but now were an abundant treasure trove of bush tucker. Old trees littered the landscape, including one that looked like a whale. In the middle of the Sandhills, is the incredible "God Tree", a giant eucalyptus tree that is over 200 years old. The perfect place to sit under, eating melons and telling stories. This place feels like a Cathedral. The God Tree stands among the dunes offering shade and rest. I felt like I didn't want to leave when I was there, feeling connected to my own dreamtime. Our son experienced his dream of running up and down sandhills, and my partner joined him. I snapped them and wandered about looking for the small trails of the desert. This was living.
