Punting on the Lake

Enjoy a serene cruise with Punting on the Lake around the islands of the picturesque Ornamental Lake in Melbourne's stunning Royal Botanic Gardens. Settle back in an elegant wooden punting boat to enjoy a unique view of one of the world's finest gardens as your professional punter tells you about its history, environment, wildlife and plants. Punts depart regularly from the Punting on the Lake landing in front of the Terrace Cafe, inside Bridge Gate of the Royal Botanic Gardens (corner Alexandra Avenue and Anderson Street). Tours take 30 minutes and are suitable for all ages. Reservations are recommended and can be made through the website. Gift vouchers for all their tours make a wonderful present and can be purchased through the website.
