Our wine tour is a social, down to earth and laid back trip that offers great wines, gin,cider and more..and we have a laugh doing it!
We'll pick you up in the morning and focus on everyone getting to know each other. We get everyone to add to a Spotify playlist so we have some tunes and spend the first hour just chatting!
Every tour is different. Everything we do on my trip is discussed by the group in the morning. We will give you options to choose from including many different wineries, Distilleries, a cheese place,a chocolate factory, Cideries, restaurants and breweries.
However if you just want to come along and put your trust in us, we will visit 4 or 5 unique venues, all with a point of difference.
Generally we do 2 wineries,a restaurant,a distillery and either,a chocolate place or a champagne place.
We don't include lunch in the price, so we go to a restaurant (Quarters) where you can order/pay what you want to eat/drink.
We use a 24 seater bus, but only fill 10-18 seats
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Service animals allowed
Public transportation options are available nearby
Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
We do not do Hotel pick ups unless you can meet us on the way the Yarra Valley and it's not a detour.
We do not have space for luggage of any sort.
We have 2 vehicles that run this tour. We primarily use a 24 seater bus but purposefully dont fill it up to still give the tour an intimate and small-group feel. We only allow 18 people max book. We also run a second vehicle of 13 seats which is a smaller van. If group size is important to you, please let us know so we can best accomodate you!
This is a public group tour where you’ll be joined by others. You can book this tour however as a large group and we can discuss doing a private tour for your group

This was a perfect day trip to the Yarra Valley! Our guide Peter was super friendly and knowledgeable about all of our stops. We visited some great wineries, and the gin distillery was a real stand-out also. And of course the chocolaterie was amazing too! The logistics were solid -- finding the pickup was easy, and stops were efficient without feeling rushed. If you're looking for a winery day trip leaving out of Melbourne's CBD, then this is a great choice.

Tokar Estate and the Yarra chocolate place. Out drivers was outstanding and so was his sense of humour and Spotify play list.

Laidback is exactly what it is.. Which made it the perfect day! Andy from the moment he met everyone at pickup was opening and informative! Communication in the lead up to the day was great as well! But the day it’s self was amazing! He knew exactly were we were going and gave us option as well. His repour with the vineyards was excellent! Thanks you again for an amazing day!
