About this tour
Spend 6–8 hours exploring four of the Yarra Valley's finest wineries in a climate-controlled coach, sampling wines and local knowledge from drivers who work these estates regularly. You'll taste across four cellar doors, pause for lunch paired with a glass of wine, and finish at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie before returning to your Melbourne CBD hotel. The region's reputation for cool-climate reds and whites becomes clear once you've worked through the lineup yourself.
Highlights
- Four winery tastings with seated service
- Lunch plus one wine glass included
- Yarra Valley Chocolaterie sampling stop
- Panoramic valley views and photography breaks
- Hotel pickups and drop-offs from CBD
What to expect
You'll board a coach in the morning for a guided drive into the Yarra Valley. The driver knows the wineries inside out and will introduce you to their styles—expect small-batch producers and larger operations on rotation, since the itinerary shifts day to day. At each stop, you'll taste 3–4 wines standing at a bar or in a tasting room. Lunch arrives mid-tour at one of the wineries, plated properly, with your included glass. By mid-afternoon, you'll stop at the chocolaterie to sample the regional product. The coach returns you to your hotel by late afternoon. Bring water—spitting is optional but sensible.
Good to know
Winery selection changes daily, so ask what's on your day when booking. Dress smart casual; most estates enforce a basic standard. Pack an umbrella if rain threatens. Not suited to cruise passengers with tight ship schedules. Public transport links the valley if you need flexibility.
