Very enjoyable and informative. Guide had wonderful knowledge of the area
Thank you. It was a pleasure to share our stories and history
I did the Cammino de Hepburn and this delightful tour lived up to it's name and exceeded expectations. Tour guide, Daizy, is knowledgeable and entertaining, and her stories of the founding people and their lives kept us all captivated. I learned amazing facts and had no idea of the gems and history Hepburn contains. I'd happily do this tour again next Friday.
Stunning review. Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback
As a local I was delighted to see Hepburn with fresh eyes, what an amazing opportunity to walk the village with stories of first Swiss Italian settlers....why did they come, how did they find Hepburn, how did they survive? Daisy weaves a fascinating picture of hardship, resilience and comradeship. Their legacy and stories shared with passion and enthusiasm - thankyou Daizy
stunning review! Thanks for your ongoing support and encouragement.
Highly recommended this walking tour experience. The guides were extremely friendly, engaging and knowledgeable with very good interactions within our small group. It really was such a special treat to align this discovery stroll with the Swiss Italian Festa 2025 and hear about the Old Macaroni Factory and end with a celebratory Prosecco and Italian style aperitif. Thank you!!
grazie mille Michelle, we enjoyed hosting you & thanks for taking the time to review us
Alice's Il Cammino di Hepburn: A Walk Through History Alice's "Il Cammino di Hepburn" offered us a wonderful and informative walk through Hepburn Springs, deeply exploring its unique Swiss and Italian heritage. The tour, led by Daizy, brings to life the stories of early settlers, showcasing their impact on the region's architecture, culture, and culinary scene. The journey included highlights like what is believed to be the oldest Italian commercial building in Australia (Luccini's Old Macaroni Factory), providing fascinating insights into the origins of pasta manufacturing in the country. The small group setting fostered a personalized experience, allowing for engaging questions and a deeper connection to the narratives. More than just a sightseeing tour, "Il Cammino di Hepburn" provided a rich context for Hepburn Springs' historical significance, weaving in the importance of its mineral springs to the early community. Concluding at a local establishment, the walk is a captivating blend of storytelling, architectural discovery, and local history, highly recommended for anyone looking to understand the true essence of Hepburn Springs.
Grazie mille for this delightful and thoughtful review! It’s a pleasure to host and create an opportunity for a special memory of your experience to Hepburn Springs.
The walking tour was a highlight of our weekend in Daylesford. I loved learning about the village’s Swiss-Italian heritage, especially visiting the old macaroni factory! Our guide Daizy was friendly, knowledgeable and full of fascinating stories about the early settlers who shaped this region. A great way to see the town and appreciate its unique past.
Thanks for the delightful review
Fine place. My wife and I had gado gado in the shaded courtyard on a warm evening, sipped happy hour white wines and listened to seasoned sprightly singer songwriters. All staff efficient and friendly.
Who would have thought the main street of Hepburn has such fascinating history? Starting with exclusive access to The Old Spaghetti Factory and finishing at the Mineral Springs Hotel, every step had a story. Daizy (tour owner/operator has incredible knowledge of the area. Utterly engaging and an essential activity for any visit to the region.
greatly appreciate you taking the time to give us such a wonderful review thank you!
Who would have thought a walk down the main street of Hepburn could be so fascinating? This is history with every single step. Starting with exclusive access to the Old Spaghetti Factory and finishing at the Mineral Springs Hotel, Daizy (tour operator) took us through the cosmopolitan story of an area that has always been and a remains a highly desirable tourist destination. Highly engaging and highly recommended!
great review thanks Sarah it's always a joy to host engaged guests!
