    The bus was old and uncomfortable. The tour felt rushed. The lunch was average. The first and last vineyards we enjoyed the wines. The vineyard where we had lunch, the wines were average. We did a yarra valley wine tour 15+ yrs a go and it was excellent, so we were hoping for the same. We also did a few wine tours in SA two years ago, and they put this tour to shame. Disappointed .

    Our guide, Billy, was cheery and jovial. He set up a nice atmosphere for us to get to know everyone else on the tour. It was a small group of 6 people, and we ended up having so much fun together. Billy has been "around the world a couple of times and maybe more", so had so much to tell us about Melbourne and the Yarra Valley with a worldly view. The selected wineyards were all good with a broad selection of wines, and goes with the beautiful settings to enjoy them with lovely company. Lunch was absolutely gorgeous, both courses were delicately prepared with plenty of choices to choose from. I went with my husband, and it was exactly what we wanted and more...a nice day out in the Yarra Valley to enjoy wines without the hassle of having to drive.

    Nicci & team were amazing in helping us to organise our wine tour with extended family in the Melbourne area. No question or problem was too much & overall it was a super Wine Tour, experiencing the different Wineries & the stories behind them was great. We would definitely recommended !

    Great day tour to the lovely Yarra Valley, made even better by our excellent tour guide, Bill. Knowledge and professional, Bill kept us entertained for the whole 8 hours. Tasted 13 different wines at 3 different wineries. Had good lunch, including a kangaroo dish. Small 6 person group was a nice size for this trip. Highly recommend.

    Highly recommend this tour! Our guide, Bill was so informative and very punctual. Each event was perfectly timed and we enjoyed lots of delicious food and alcohol. The small group made it much more personal and enjoyable. This trip was a 10/10 experience.
