The Wine Hopper was the perfect way to explore Tassie’s Coal River Valley. The whole day felt relaxed, flexible and really well run. Being able to enjoy the wine without worrying about driving made the day even better. Such a fun, easy and social way to explore the area.
Fantastic flexible and fun

What a great day! We met the bus at the Tasmanian Travel and Information Centre car park. The first couples got off at Cole River Valley and we started at Riversdale. We enjoyed a tasting which finished in time for the bus to pick us up in an hour. Next stop Puddleduck. We had a wander around Richmond. A tasting at Pooleys and finished off at Caledon! We were dropped off at the Mornington Inn. Killara and Sullivans Cove were closed for private functions. The timetable was not the same as published but we had an hour at each venue. Would definitely do it again and highly recommend.
Flexibility of choosing your stops was great.

Full day tour but not an early start which was great. The ability to choose which stops to visits and how long (within the timetable) at each was also good. Recommend that you do your research on the stop options as you’ll be limited as to how many you can fit in. It also helps to book lunch/tasting in peak season. The tour company were great with their comms to help get the most of the day. If you like a tour where everything is organised for you and you don’t have to do much thinking then this might not be the one for you.
What a fantastic day

What a fantastic day visiting the wineries on sunny day. We are locals and love hitting our Richmond wineries but unfortunately someone always has to do the driving duties. Not with the Wine Hopper! We visited 4 wineries starting with Craigow as we hadn’t visited before. What awn experience, Barry the host was amazing sitting with us telling use stories about his beautiful wines. Definitely worth stopping here. The next stop Riversdale Estate, live music great venue and some great wines, every man, Pooleys and a quick visit to Richmond to finish the day. We had a great bunch of people on the bus who all got on so well, probably thanks to Alex our driver who was informative, friendly and funny who also played us some great tunes to sing to. I would definitely recommend this as a tourist or a local to visit our local beautiful vineyards. Thanks guys for an amazing day! We will be back soon with more friends.
