This was the best tour we did on our three week stay in Australia. The scenery was just fabulous and the four vineyards that you visit had the most amazing views across the valley. The wine tasting was great and very informative. We were not hurried along and the meal provided in one of the vineyards was superb. David our... More

I booked this tour through viator but it was with the Australian Tour Company and turned out to be a great day. I was travelling solo and became ill on my long flight from Europe and they were quite accomodating about changing the dates I had originally booked. There is a small bus which creates a nice intimate group and... More

We signed on with this tour as a last minute addition to our trip. The bus picked us up in Melbourne on time and we headed out with MIke, who had a good sense of humor and told us a lot of interesting facts on the drive out to the wineries. He kept us laughing right through to the end... More

We had a fantastic day out in the Yarra Valley. Our guide, Sandy, was absolutely brilliant and gave us so much relevant information which was brilliant. The wineries were all lovely and very different. There were lots of beautiful views and some great wines to sample. I would highly recommend it! More

I have previously been on two tours of Yarra Valley Wineries and as a resident of Melbourne for 25 years have visited and stayed in and around the Yarra Valley many times. I booked this tour for a good friend and I only Saturday the 20th of August. Our guide Mike was a great guy and very warm and friendly.... More

Thanks for taking the time to review our Yarra Valley Tour. There are some great wines in the Yarra Valley and it sounds like you enjoyed them! We do limit group bookings on the daily tours as you mentioned they do change the dynamics of the group, unfortunately sometimes they do get through by booking separately. We also regularly review...

As I am a wine lover and member of several wine clubs in my home country,on my recent visit to Australia I decided on a trip to the Yarra/ I have read and been told that Yarra Valley wines are fairly average and the best Australian wines are from the Margaret River on the West Coast. I decided to check... More

Thanks for taking the time to review our Yarra Valley Tour. There are a range of different wineries that we visit to maximise the variety of wines from this region that passengers get to taste. Everyone has different opinions on the wines from this area many of which are extremely positive. Domain Chandon is definitely on the “must do” list... More

I took the one day Yarra Valley tour from Melbourne. Nick was our guide. It is a very good experience to spend the day learning about wine, riding trough the valley and meeting some very interested tour colleagues. They take you to 2 small wineries and 2 larger ones, so you can understand and 'feel' the differences between family owned... More

In July, I organised a group tour for my colleagues through Aust. Wine Tour Company. Dealing with them was hassle-free and it was so easy to tailor the itinerary to our needs. We ended up having quite a mix of destinations on the day, to include Yarra Valley Dairy and Coldstream Brewery. This was a great idea to cater for... More

I recently took an Australian Wine Tour Company tour with a group of work colleagues. Because we organised the tour ourselves, we were able to tailor the day to meet everyone's requests. Along with a couple of wineries (Rochford and Domaine Chandon), we were able to include visits to the Yarra Valley Dairy and Coldstream Brewery. Our guide, John, taught... More
