Stay Overnight on the Mornington Peninsula – Departing from Melbourne
Exploring the Mornington Peninsula as part of a multi-day journey from Melbourne has never been this easy — or this flexible. No need to hire a car or commit to a rigid itinerary.
With Local Way’s build-your-own escape, you can now combine our premium small-group day tours with your choice of overnight stay and a return journey that suits your style. Choose your first tour, decide where (and how long) you’d like to stay, then finish your trip with another tour — or a scenic transfer back to Melbourne via the Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, or a direct return.
It’s a simple three-step process that turns your Peninsula visit into a seamless, guided adventure — with luggage handling, hotel drop-offs, and real local connection included.
This is the new way to explore the Peninsula — on your terms.

Your Options – It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3
Build your ideal Mornington Peninsula escape in three simple steps. Start with your choice of small-group day tour, decide how long you’d like to stay and where, then choose your return — whether it’s a direct transfer back to Melbourne, another day tour, or a scenic route via Phillip Island or the Great Ocean Road – all roads lead back to Melbourne.
It’s travel your way, with all the logistics handled for you.
