Overview

WE HAVE 1000'S OF FIVE STAR REVIEWS!

After years of providing private group tours for friends, family and businesses, we realised how much we love to please people and try and go the extra mile to see a bigger smile at the end of the day.

So we built out our new Yarra Valley Public Tour that has the necessary itinerary but also has flexibility to split up the group depending on their preferences on wine, gin, cheese and chocolate.

Most days you will find yourself being driven by the owner. If he is having a rare day off, you will be in the capable hands of one of his few trusted tour guides that also share his ethos of 'Going the extra mile to see a smile'

We visit Four Pillars every day. Here you will enjoy four of their world-famous samples of gin on a paddle with your choice of mixer to wash them down with. If you don't fancy a gin paddle, you can grab a wine or a beer. (Or we can walk you over to Payten and Jones for a wine tasting).

Duration: 1 hour

We visit 'Quarters' restaurant @ Hubert Estate every day for lunch and a look around their indigenous art gallery on the floor below their cellar door. If you brought your own food, you can eat it on the bus. We will sit in the restaurant and enjoy lunch together. Food and drink are not included in the tour price here, as to give you more freedom to enjoy whatever you choose for your lunch. They offer a wide variety of fantastic food here and cater for all dietary requirements.
"With a menu full of Modern Australian and European inspired dishes, Quarters is perfect for foodies, families, and everyone in between. Think succulent steaks, vibrant local veg, and delicate, flaky fish.
Feeling extra hungry? Try some pasta, handmade on site, and our incredible (yes, incredible) woodfired pizza, unlike any others in the region. Lucky everyone has a second stomach for dessert, because our dedicated team of pastry chefs will tempt anyone with a sweet tooth."

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Domaine Chandon, 727 Maroondah Hwy, Coldstream, Victoria 3770 Australia

- If you are quick with lunch, we will happily run you to Domaine Chandon for a photo opportunity of the beautiful view.

Duration: 10 minutes

We visit Yering Farm Wines every day. You will enjoy a guided tasting of four different wines and a bonus taste of a cider whilst enjoying the panoramic views! Yering Farm has a rustic tasting room, a resurrected hay shed beside the lambing nursery and orchard on the farm. The original 'Yeringa' sign was recovered and adorns the entrance. Pull up a stool or lean on the worn wooden bar as you are treated to a presentation of boutique wines, all grown and made on site.

Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: Yarra Valley Dairy, 70-80 McMeikans Rd, Yering, Victoria 3770 Australia

Great day - Matt was great and everything very well organised, we were able to just walk into the expriences with no witing around. Scenary stunning, and of course the weather helped. Choice of venues varied, worked well.
