Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A family group of 8 (all adults) did the premium all day wine tour on Monday 9 May 2022.
It was a great day visiting 3 wineries (Chandon, Boat O'Craigo and Soumah) and the Watts River Brewery. We did tastings at all the venues and had a great cheese platter at our 2nd stop and a great lunch at Soumah, this was all included in the price. Our host Vlad picked us up at 10am and we got back around 6pm. The day just flew by, Vlad kept us moving but at no time did we feel rushed. The tour itinerary can be tailored to what you want as we specificially requested Chandon and the brewery. I would highly recommend this tour company and Vlad, as they are friendly, professional and provide great value.

Vlad took us on a fantastic day through the Yarra Valley. We didn't give him much time to organise our day as we contacted him on a Monday for a trip on Friday but that was no problem. Vlad was also able to accommodate our request to visit Chandon as well as then making excellent choices for our other stops. Our lunch was fantastic and in the afternoon on Vlad's advice we visited a small independent winery which ended up being our biggest purchase site of the day. All in all we had a fantastic day with Vlad and would definitely utilise his services again.

We had an amazing day with Vlad! From the beginning communication was very easy and everything scheduled at short notice without a problem. We had an opportunity to organise our own itinerary but I trusted Vlad's expertise and did not get disappointed. All the wineries were new to us and such a good wine and atmosphere in every single one. Vlad's knowledge and stories were a good addition. The car that picked us up from our home address was nice and clean with cool AC and water (that was needed). Overall fantastic experience and great value for the money, I highly recommend!! Thank you so much Three Koalas and Vladimir!

We can't recommend 3 Koalas enough!! Vlad was an amazing guide! We did the inclusive half day. The three wineries Vlad picked were truly amazing, ranging from a larger company to a one-man operation. With the inclusive, we didn't pay anything extra - just walked right into the tasting. And what great tastings! We tasted 10-12 at one location. Vlad was also a great tour guide, giving us some great details on the Yarra Valley. I'm honestly shocked at the low price. Our experience was easily worth twice as much. What a deal! Overall, we highly recommend the wine tour. Such a great way to get outside Melbourne and have a lot of fun!

I had German visitors who really know their wines & I have no idea of wineries in Yarra Valley. I contacted Vlad via their website, asking for recommendations. Within hours, I had a number of options & winery recommendations.
I chose a Premium Tour, including wine tastings and lunch. We were not disappointed. Richard, the driver was punctual, friendly and knowledgeable. Our pickup was at 10am and we were returned to the hotel at 6:15, full of wine and food.
We had lunch at Soumah winery - a must visit!!
My visitors will be back in November and we will be booking again with Vlad and Three Koalas

We had a stunning day touring the Yarra Valley, completely faultless from start to finish. Communication was excellent and the tour was exceptional with Vlad taking care of our every need. Corniolo was a highlight which we had never heard of.. a special barrel room tasting with the winemaker. A very memorable day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND 👏🏼🥂🍾🍷🍇🍸🚐💨

We had a great time with Vlad. We did the BYO half day tour but he was extremely responsive to our questions and provided some great suggestions as to where to go etc. He was on time to pick us up and even gave us an extra half hour to our trip so that we were not rushed at lunch. Excellent customer service and would highly recommend!

On a girls day trip from Brisbane. Vlad our driver was awesome. He gave us space but also kept us on schedule so we could visit and see the places we wanted to visit. He also put up with some bad singing as the day progressed 🤣
He was thoughtful, caring and very accommodating.
The bus was comfortable and Vlad provided a Bluetooth speaker to play our music.
I would thoroughly recommend this tour company and if you are lucky enough to get Vlad - perfect 😊

Having never visited the Yarra Valley before, we decided on a personalised wine tour with Three Koalas. Everything was perfect, from the booking, pick up and drop off at our accommodation in the city! Vlad explained alot about the history of the region as he drove us to some beautiful boutique vineyards. We enjoyed a beautiful lunch at Soumah, and did not feel rushed at all. We would highly recommend Vlad if you a looking for a unique experience without the crowds.
A day we will remember.. thank you Vlad
