Hi I'm Mimi,

I live in the Yarra Valley and as a local know all the hidden gems and beautiful scenic routes that large commercial tours often avoid. Experience local artisan cheese platters, local bakeries, Devonshire tea at the historic Train Cafe, the delightful Healesville township and also the iconic Yarra Valley Chocolaterie. It will be a fun and delicious adventure in a small group at a pace you can relax and enjoy.

If you love local artisan food, chocolate, and scenic landscapes and rushing multiple wine tastings at a large commercial winery isn't your kind of thing, then this is the tour for you.

My groups are small at just 4 people and each experience you'll have is unique and will leaving a lasting impression. Great for couples and small groups.

Important Note: The remaining (Hours) will be allotted for the travel time between locations and from pick up until drop off.

Great way to experience the Yarra Valley, taking in Yarra Glen, Seville and Healesville. The drive was beautiful taking us off the main highway through some great spots. I really loved Healesville, such a beautiful town, great boutique stores and we stopped there for an amazing cheese platter. Another highlight was the train cafe, having tea and scones there was a special experience. As it's a small group it felt much more personal and not rushed.
Great experiences and in a small group

Enjoyed this tour as it has a private feel to it with a small group of 4. Love the food and stories behind each place we visited. A good pace, not rushed, plenty of time to take in the scenery, learn about hte local areas and food. Each place we visited was a different experience from cheese, bagels, Devonshire tea with scones and of course lots of Chocolate. Really enjoyed the experience.
Beautiful sights and delicious food!

Best kept secret of the Yarra Valley! I've been on wine tasting tours before, but this is very different and much more of my thing. No big groups and lot drinking, instead it's great food, nice sightseeing and it feels much more like a private tour. Love the historic train cafe, what a surprise, with the delicious scones and tea with just amazing bushland surroundings. Even a chance to say hi to some goats! The Chocolatier with the tasting experience was also a highlight.
Loved it, one for the foodies!

I've been on some wine tours in the Yarra Valley and this tour caught my eye as it's for foodies. Wow there is so much more in the Yarra Valley and famous wine, really got to experience some great local produce and smaller boutique places which was amazing. Mimi, being a local really knows the secret spots and the stories behind them. If you love cheese, bagels, scones, tea and of course chocolate, you'll love this tour! Small group of four was a real plus as it felt more personal and not rushed.
Yum yum!

Really fun & relaxed tour. Great for someone that loves local produce and scenery and wants something different to a wine tour. There’s so much the Yarra Valley has! Great food and our guide Mimi is such an expert living in the area! The small group is a big plus as it felt like a private tour with a chance to ask questions and spend time at our own place. Lots of chances to take photos and just feel the local vibe as we went around. More food than I could handle haha.
