great day, thouroughly enjoyed it, quite imformative, beautiful lunch, and i know we were just supposed to taste the wine, but most of them were too nice not to swallow, so my advice is pleanty of carbs for breakfast, and lots of water in between, Greg was wonderful!

What a fantastic day with a great bunch of people from all over the world. Our guide was a real Aussie character who had us all enthralled with his stories and jokes. The wines were suburb ad no pressure was applied to buy. A day to remember!!!

Myself and 4 girlfriends enjoyed this tour for as part of my 40th birthday celebrations on Friday 10th Feb. We had a fabulous day! Our tour guide Brett was fantastic and gave us lots of excellent recommendations for the duration of our stay in Melbourne. The tour itself was great, the wineries lovely and of course the highlight "Domain Chandon" .. If there was any criticism it's that I would've like longer at Domain Chandon but that is really vsplitting hairs. :-)))

Review by: Vincent W	January 2012
Excellent tour especially the tour guide was very friendly, and proficient. The lunch was good and we had enough time to look around a little apart from wine tasting.

Review by: Beryl C	December 2011
We did the wine tour last week and were very impressed. The tour guide had lots of knowledge. Winery we visited were all different. Lunch was very nice and we end up at Chadon Winery which was excellent. It's a nice way to spend a day and get out of the city. Good value for money.

Review by: Amelia S	December 2011
Very good tour with an informative and friendly guide. Venues were nice (although the wines at the first winery were not good) and good lunch. Good value for money.

Review by: Marra	December 2011
I went solo but had an amazing time. Our group was a fun crowd of mixed ages but the average age was mid thirties. Our driver/guide was fantastic and so knowledgeable. Each of the wineries was amazing in their own right and I really enjoyed the process of learning and appreciating each of the wines. Lunch was very good and the scenery spectacular. I'd recommend this to couples, groups of friends or even singles. It's well worth it and a memorable experience!

This was an amazing trip and an incredible value. No tasting fees , gourmet lunch and free jokes in the beautiful Yarra Valley. Our driver Nick was a great host. I booked this online after typing in " best Yarra valley wine tour". This was the top hit and all great reviews.

Review by: Michelle S	November 2011
Would have rated this tour higher had the bus been more spacious as found the lack of leg room quite uncomfortable. Tour guide was knowledgable and humourous and enjoyed the scenery and the wineries.

Review by: Susan D	November 2011
Very knowlegeable guide, great wine/lunch and beautiful country.

Review by: Sandra T	November 2011
Totally enjoyed the trip. A bit too much talking and explaining about the wine especially for someone who has been to a number of wineries before, but good for novices. Nice lunch. Bus driver was great, very knowledgable about the region and wineries. Would recommend.

Review by: Jan	October 2011
Didnt feel trip was worth $140NZ. Lunch not particularly memorable however an enjoyable day out all the same. Thanks

Review by: Edney F	October 2011
Guide with a very good wine knowledge....

Review by: Margaret M	October 2011
excellent day trip. Driver was very knowledgable, helpful and courteuos. Great lunch served. Only problem was the attittude of the representative at the last winery of the day. She didn't seem happy to be there and it felt like she was doing me a favour to give me a taste of the Champagnes on offer. Even though I paid for the privelage of tasting.

A great Day out with Loads of laughs, Cheers PAtrice

Review by: Shann H	October 2011
Brett our host and driver was excellent with his knowledge of wines and had an even better sense of humour which we all enjoyed. Completeing the tour at Chandon was the icing on the cake for the day. A highly recommended tour.

Review by: Peter L	July 2011
One of the highlights of our first time visit to Australia. Knowledgeable and funny tour guide. Nice variety of vineyards and wine tastings. Lunch is included and pretty good. Chatting with the other guests (both Australian and international) was a very nice plus.

Review by: David W	July 2011
We had a great time! Visited four wineries in less than 8 hours. Had a nice, small group (20). Our tour guide Nick was very informative and entertaining. Had vegetarian option for lunch. This was our second Viator tour (also did Danube River cruise from Vienna to Melk -- also great). Will book with Viator again!

Review by: Kathleen W, Canada	May 2010
For the wine lovers out there, I would highly recommend this tour. We had several tastings and received crash course of the different wines. The driverguide was very entertaining and knowledgeable. We had an incredible lunch at one of the vineyards. The Yarra Valley is a beautiful area. Lots of great pics.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	May 2010
The valley was beautiful. The tour guide was extremely informative and gave a very detailed description of the champagne sparkling winemaking process. It was a very good selection of wineries. The lunch was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour.

Simply the best!

Excellent wine tour, and our tour guide and driver made us all welcome immediately. The time for each winery was carefully calculated to give enough alone time and information time. Well done.
