5.00What a wonderful way to spend a Saturday in the beautiful surroundings of the Yarra Valley! Even though we're all from Melbourne, it felt like a true getaway and made for an unforgettable day out. A special shout-out to our tour guide, Danny, who was both entertaining and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the experience fun from start to finish. The group on the bus was also friendly and welcoming, which added to the great atmosphere. The wineries were charming and beautifully rustic, and the wine tastings were excellent. Lunch was delicious and well-organized, but my favourite stop had to be the chocolate factory—a real highlight of the day! Thank you, Dancing Kangaroo Tours, for such a memorable experience with my family. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and well-planned day exploring the Yarra Valley.
Yarra valley is worth visiting!

5.00The tour guide was really kind and friendly. He shared interesting stories about all the spots we visited. The itinerary was well arranged. It only took about an hour’s drive to reach our first stop, a local farm. The strawberries there were incredibly tasty. I’ve never had such sweet, fresh ones in Australia before. The wine tasting was lovely too. Staff walked us through different varieties, and I got to sample ten types of wine in two wineries. The chocolate factory was a pleasant surprise. The sun came out just as we arrived, casting beautiful light over the mountain views. At the gin distillery, we spotted Angus cattle, chickens, sheep and adorable alpacas. I snapped plenty of photos there. All in all, it was a wonderful day out. I’d definitely recommend this tour to friends.
Very local. Could feel australian vibes
