Beautiful day in Yarra Valley

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.

5.00Took this tour and had a truly epic time with Posi, our tour guide, all day. We did three wineries, which included an amazing lunch at the second stop, and substituted the last winery with the gin stop, then perfectly finished with the final stop for chocolate and ice cream. All in all, a fantastic tour (ask for Posi so you can hear all his stories and the great music playlist he lines up based on the dynamics of the group!); highly recommended!
Highlight your trip outside of Melbourne
