Be picked up from the pier and travel in air-conditioned comfort to Living Legends – home of some of our favourite retired racehorse champions. The tour includes Devonshire tea and time in the racing museum.

Operated By:

Travel by air-conditioned minibus to Living Legends – home to some favourite retired champion race horses such as Behemoth, Santa Ana Lane, Apache Cat, Silent Witness, Brew, Efficient, Tom Melbourne, Fawkner and Almandin.  Enjoy the opportunity to meet, pat and feed the horses and talk to the stable hands that care for them.

Living Legends is part of Woodlands Park and is modelled closely on the Home of Rest for Horses in the United Kingdom.  Like the Home of Rest, they aim to support equine research, education and training to benefit horses of all ages and breeds.  Special emphasis, however, is given to the care of older horses.

While there, relax in the beautiful, historic homestead of Woodlands Historic Park with a delicious Devonshire Tea and take some time to explore the on-site museum before travelling back to your cruise ship or hotel.

* Parts of this tour take place on foot so please make sure to wear weather-appropriate, comfortable clothing and footwear.

Please make sure you have advised the name of your cruise ship.  During the busy Spring Racing Carnival ships may berth at more than one location.  We want to make sure we’re picking you up from the correct place!

Please check your email the night before the tour for any unexpected changes to the pick up time or location.
