Overview

Step beyond Bendigo’s grand architecture and uncover the untold story of the city’s Chinese pioneers. This small-group tour offers a rare opportunity to explore the authentic sites of Dai Gum San “Big Gold Mountain” where thousands of Chinese miners lived, worked, and forged a lasting legacy during the gold rush.

Led by a passionate local guide, you’ll wander through 1850s Chinese diggings and try your hand at panning for real gold. Visit one of Australia’s last surviving Chinese cemeteries, a peaceful resting place rich in symbolism and stories of belonging.

Relax over morning tea at PepperGreen Farm, a thriving social enterprise on the site of the original Chinese market gardens, before visiting the Golden Dragon Museum and Chinese Gardens — home to Dai Gum Loong, the world’s longest Imperial Dragon. With comfortable transport and expert storytelling, this tour reveals the courage and culture that helped shape Bendigo.
