Your morning begins with a convenient 8am pickup at the iconic Bell Tower in Barrack Square, or request complimentary hotel pickup from selected Perth CBD locations. The vehicle is equipped with a fridge to keep any fresh produce you may purchase throughout the journey cool.

Your coffee & tea stop this morning comes complete with a charming country view and some early morning squawks. Limestone Park is passion project and a labour of love for the Agnew family who built this little slice of paradise from scratch in their own back yard. With over 450 different colourful bird species on display and a quaint country garden complete with a windmill, breathe in the fresh country air as this relaxed atmosphere sets the tone for the day ahead.

Next we travel down a bumpy dusty dirt road until we arrive at a little farm gate driveway with a rustic tasting shed. Completely sustainable and off the grid, you'll be amazed at what this little farm can achieve. Each morning the goats are milked and each afternoon their milk is handcrafted into farmhouse cheese. Taste and sample the feta and camembert, learn about the farms sustainable practices. Have you ever tried goats milk gelato? With 6 different flavours on offer you'll be struggling to find a favourite. Choose a 125ml tub, sit in the sun or take it with you on the road as we head for our next destination.

Hidden along the back roads of the Chittering Valley, we’ll find The Hive Café situated amongst the pine trees and farm animals. There’s nothing really ‘little’ about Little Eeden Honey Farm except for the honey bees. The lunch portions are generous, the peacocks love to show off, rustic metal art decorates the gardens, and if you’re lucky, the emu will come out to say hello. This place has a big personality with genuine local charm. Sample the bush honey or try their famous Bee Tea honey. The farm is known for its honey infusions, using local ingredients and secret recipes to create the sweetest honey treats.

If you thought this tour couldn’t get any more 'off the beaten track,' you’ll be surprised when we arrive at a Spanish Benedictine monastery buried within the heart of the Australian outback. Founded in 1847 by Benedictine monks, New Norcia developed into a self sufficient, progressive agricultural mission. Being the only living and working monastic town left in the nation, it still produces many of its original products using traditional recipes. Sample freshly baked bread from the 1902 wood fired oven with New Norcia’s award winning olive oil. Try the handcrafted traditional monastic Abbey Ale, the lighter Pale Ale, vintage muscat, and St Benedict’s Port. Roam the architectural heritage protected streets and walk in the footsteps of the pioneers who built this historic community. Visit the 1850s Mission Cottage, home to the Indigenous Yued people. Step inside the Benedictine Abbey, visit the town cemetery and the Rock of Remembrance, which acknowledges New Norcia’s complex past.

Travelling through the Wheatbelt region of WA we make our way back to Perth. Farm gate stalls offering fresh fruit and vegetables provide a perfect roadside stop to stock up on seasonal, farm fresh produce. Influenced by the seasons, expect to see citrus varieties, stone fruit, capsicum, tomatoes, and root vegetables.

Returning to either Barrack Square at Elizabeth Quay or your CBD hotel accommodation, you’ll reflect on a day well spent exploring the landscapes, flavours, and hidden gems of regional Western Australia.
