When the mercury drops, Victoria’s Snowy Mountains transform into a winter wonderland. Experience the magic on this Mount Buller snow day tour from Melbourne. This small boutique tour will collect you from the Melbourne CBD and transport you to the Snowy Mountains after an approximately three-hour journey.

Afterwards, enjoy tobogganing and snow play—perfect for families and non-skiers alike.
Following lunch, join a guided walk along the Village Circuit Track, showcasing extraordinary views of the snow-covered alpine landscape, or continue enjoying the snow at the Village Toboggan & Snowplay Park.

Fun day at the snow to spend with family and friends.
We booked a snow day trip for 10 people through Experience Oz. The booking process was easy; just select the date and number of people and the site will show the availability. Once payment was made we got an email straight away confirming payment, booking details, and instructions. The payment covers transportation and an entrance ticket so you can just enjoy the day when you arrive. This connected us with a local tour company - Hit The Road Tours (HTRT). You'll be required to confirm your reservation 2 days before departure. HTRT was great, our group of 10 had a private tour with Paul as our driver. The trip took about 3 hours each way with pick up and drop off from St Paul's Cathedral. There were regular stops for coffee, snacks, and toilet break. The drive was comfortable and got to Mt Buller and back safely. Paul also accompanied us to the village and took time to explain where and what we were doing. When we arrived, we had plenty of time to have lunch, play in the snow, and took lots of pictures.
