High Tea on Cuthbert’s 939 Vintage Tram

Step back in time aboard the beautifully restored 1940s tram, Cuthbert’s 939, and enjoy a truly unique high tea experience in the heart of Ballarat.

Your journey begins at the Ballarat Tramway Museum, where you can explore the exhibits before boarding. The tram departs for a scenic 1 to 1.5 hour ride along picturesque Lake Wendouree. Settle into plush red velvet seats, admire the polished wooden panelling, and soak in the gentle rhythm of this heritage icon.

Upon boarding, you will be welcomed with freshly baked warm scones and a selection of hot and cold beverages. Soon after, indulge in a three-tier high tea tower brimming with sweet and savoury treats, all prepared in-house within 24 hours of departure. Only vegetarian, gluten-free and nut-free dietary requirements can be accommodated (must be advised at booking).

This experience combines vintage charm with gourmet indulgence, making it perfect for locals, day-trippers, and visitors seeking something truly memorable.

Please note that there are no bathrooms on board, and that there is limited storage available, so large bags and coats are not allowed. Please ensure you are on time so you don’t miss the train.
