Overview
Calling all tastebud explorers for a one-day perfect combo, of travel and taste, as we sample our way through the stunningly exquisite Yarra Valley. As we get to sip award-winning wines, be surrounded by spectacular landscapes and vineyard views.
Our day starts with chocolate tastings at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie & Ice-Creamery. Guests will have the pleasure of visiting three boutique wineries and cellar-door estates. In some cases, our itinerary and winery stops will need to be modified due to unforeseen circumstances, such as group sizes, special events and cellar-door closures.
We’ve added free time in Healesville, for guests to grab lunch and explore the gateway town to the Yarra Valley. This tour has been designed for our guests to be able to see the Yarra Valley through local eyes rather than being shuttled from one winery to another.
This unique wine tour explores all the treasures of the Yarra Valley district in a relaxed small group environment of around 20 persons.

Reviews
It got a bit stressful at times where we had to rush off to the next spot. Wouldn't have minded a longer stay at each location, with time to have a walk around or sit in the sun for a minute.
Overall a great tour and we got the luck of spendning it with a great group of people, that even contained a proposal! All the best to the happy two <3
Will absolutley recomend this tour!
We then rushed again to our lunch break in Healesville where our time in the town was cut down by 15 minutes to catch up on time. Somehow this did not help as the tour guide noted on several occasions that we were still behind time.
We then proceeded to Medhurst and Fergusson wineries for our next tastings. Both wineries seemed to not very interested in our tour.
Medhurst made (16 pax) us stand at the counter in an area that would only comfortably fit 4 people when all of the tables and chairs were vacant and in fact there was no one in the winery at the time.
When we arrived at Fergusson we were shuffled into the cellar door and we waited for about 5 minutes with no service with the tour guide finally going to the staff to see “what was going on”. They sent a young lady to serve us who was disinterested and gave no commentary about the wines at all and made us feel like we were just an annoyance. Again we were all made to stand and pass out the wines to everyone in a muddled group.
I mentioned this to the tour guide who said that this is just they way they do it. This is quite amazing as we have been to most of the wine regions in Australia and have never been treated this way when going to a winery.
We were made to feel like we did not matter and second class as we were on a wine tour. Tour guide did not really seem too interested in remedying the issue and we just felt like she just wanted to get the tour done and go home.
