What to expect
Luna Park Melbourne
Our first major attraction that we pass is Luna Park, a historic amusement park located on the foreshore of Port Phillip Bay in St Kilda. It might be that as we pass you will hear screams and yells coming from the riders of the Scenic Railway, which was opened in in December 1912 and is the oldest continually operating roller coaster in the world. If you see someone standing in between the carriages, don't worry! The Scenic Railway and one of three roller coasters in the world that has a brakeman who stands in the middle of the train. We can stop at Luna Park for a photoshoot, if you desire.
Brighton Beach
The route follows the very beautiful and picturesque Beach Road where you will see multimillion dollar designer houses on one side, and the great views of Port Phillip Bay and the numerous beaches on the other side.
