Genie Hidden in a bottle?
James_B, Apr 2024
This is such an undersell description of a tour! Omg I literally was debating on cancelling this tour and am soooo amazed by this tour - I did do it and Tom was outstanding! The value for money here is mind blowing. It’s not a one pick place but includes all 3. You are bound to have an amazing time!
A very wine experience
Ian_F, Apr 2024
We had a great day out in the Yarra valley with Matt. There was something for everyone from great scenery to wine tasting and even a top notch gin tasting. The music playlist on the bus was awesome especially on the way home with some Stevie Ray. Up the baggers!
Lovely Day Trip
Tehka_B, Apr 2024
We had a lovely group from all over the world. Matt was friendly and professional. He kept the tour moving while giving us enough time to wander. I enjoyed having a variety of wine, gin and chocolate.
Great trip!
Keith_S, Apr 2024
Matt did an excellent job driving and giving information throughout the tour. The bus was comfortable and clean. We were on time and enjoyed the music he played. The wineries were good. The chocolate stop was okay.
Amazing !

A Great Wine Tour
Judy_M, Mar 2024
Our van included 12 persons and this number was much preferable to a large bus tour. Our driver Tom was excellent. He kept us all on schedule without feeling rushed at any venue. The stops on this itinerary were all interesting and the entire day was enjoyed by all. We would highly recommend this tour.
Good vibe
Anh_P, Mar 2024
We were hopeless cuz last min booking then we found this. This tour takes you to some places which the others do not 👌
Great way to see the...

Great way to see the Yarro Valley and experience good wine and food. Our host, Jake, was attentive and friendly.
This is a must in Melbourne
ChiCheung_L, Feb 2024
It’s really a good trip to spend a day in wine tasting in the yarra valley with good and professional guide and a lot of people
Great day out
Geraldine_M, Feb 2024
Great host in Tom... relatively small group of 12 people. Visited lots of wineries, a gin tasting, chocolaterie and even managed to squeeze an extra tasting in because we were ahead of schedule. Highly recommended 😍🍾🥂
Had to cancel on the day due to an emergency- contacted the tour guide- travelled all the way from perth- tried to swap
Rosemary_D, Feb 2024
Did not go disappointed- had an emergency and was not allowed to swap to another day. Tour guide said they would ring us! Did not happen
A drive in the country
JamesRoger_L, Feb 2024
This was a "tour" and we got to see some beautiful country, taste some good wines and do all the things in the description. BUT, our guide admittedly, was a driver, not a tour guide, so basically all we did was listen to his music as he drove us from location to location. Would have preferred to have more time at the chocolate factory and less time at wineries scattered so far apart. There was also extra driving due to "back-tracking" that could have shortened the drive. Overall, a quite enjoyable day however and Matt, our driver, was very personable.
Wine, Gin and Chocolate - who could want more!
emily_c, Feb 2024
Our trip leader/driver/local Matt, was a lovely young man who was only too willing to help, answer questions, offer ideas and knew the area and the wines to a high degree. The bus was comfortable with a good song list on offer. This was a great way to see the Yarra Valley.
A great day out!
Robyn_B, Feb 2024
Scenery, wineries, ginnery and chocolate. A great day out with a very helpful, happy and obliging guide.
Great tour operator to use for the Yarra Valley
Kasey_P, Jan 2024
Gilberto was a great tour host, he was kind, funny and informative. Great selection of stops, fun Spotify playlist and an enjoyable vibe in the bus all-round.
Awesome Mackenzie Falls
Karen_L, Jan 2024
The walk down to see the Mackenzie Falls and then back up, it really challenges my stamina. But the experience was worthwhile.
Great experience!
Luis_C, Dec 2023
Worthy tour, great sceneries! Everything was perfect. Tour guide helped us to maximize the experience. Highly recommended.
A great taste of the Yarra Valley.
steve_w, Nov 2023
The wine tastings, esp the first which was excellent. Would probably prefer to visit 3 wineries and skip the cheese tasting.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Thanks for a great review Steve. The cheese shop is just a 10 minute bonus stop for cheese lovers. So on the days no one wants to visit the cheese shop, we just return 10 minutes earlier and wouldn't visit an extra winery anyway. Thanks.

A wonderful experience with Tom. One of the best wine tour. Alot of different options you can do gin or go to drink more wines, staying at st huberts or going to domain chandon, also non alcoholic choices if youre done with wines. The best experience 1000% recommended to try if youre here in melbourne.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
What a fantastic summary. Thanks Royce!
