5.00This was such an amazing day. Our guide, Shaun was so friendly and funny, genuinely had all of us laughing so much and interacted with everyone. I was travelling alone, so it was nice to feel so welcome. There was a huge variety of tastings, from cheese, wine, cider, chocolate and gin - what more could you want? Honestly, I was tossing up between a few tours, but I am SO glad I chose this one, we covered so much in one day, but didn't feel rushed either. Value for money was fantastic, highly recommend.

5.00I had an absolutely fantastic day with Kangaroo’s Wine Tour. Our guide Danny was incredible — friendly, funny, relaxed and genuinely passionate about what he does. He created such a positive and comfortable atmosphere from start to finish, and his knowledge about the region and the wines made the whole experience even better. The value for money is genuinely impressive. For the price you pay, you get multiple generous wine tastings, a lovely cheese sampling, a chocolate tasting and a well-planned route through beautiful spots in the Yarra Valley. Everything felt smooth, well organised and really worth it. It ended up being one of the highlights of my time in Melbourne. I’d absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, relaxed and perfectly organised day out!

5.00We had an amazing day out with Dancing Kangaroos Tours exploring the beautiful Yarra Valley. Our guide, Shauny, was friendly, fun and incredibly knowledgeable – he made the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable. The tour had a fantastic mix of local produce, delicious food and wonderful wine tastings at some great spots across the region. It was the perfect balance of learning about the local wineries and simply soaking up the scenery and flavours. We absolutely loved it and would highly recommend Dancing Kangaroos Tours and Shauny for anyone looking for an unforgettable Yarra Valley experience! 🍷🦘
