5.00Posi was very friendly and explained many things along the way, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I especially appreciated how he spoke about his respect for Aboriginal culture—it was really meaningful. The music playlist was also great! We visited four wineries and all of them were excellent. The chocolate and ice cream stop at the end was definitely a highlight. I highly recommend this tour!

5.00We spent a day with Posy (positive Chris) in Yarra Valley exploring vineyards and chocolate and ice cream factory. Posy was amazing tour guide that became a friend in the end, and all in the group that started as strangers became one big group of friends. I would highly recommend taking this tour and explore what Yarra Valley has to offer.
