Most importantly, Andy, our tour guide was on time and delightful! He explained the plan for the day and shared great information through out the trip. He also answered all the random questions I had; were those shipping containers? Do kangaroos have predators? Do kangaroos eat the grapes?
The wineries were wonderful ! My favorites were Yering Farm and Soumah, the first and last ones. Lunch was delicious as well..
I had a wonderful time and will definitely recommend this tour to my friends!

Great Tour with plenty of time to taste the wines & take in all the information
Soumah winery the last one we visited was the best in terms of information plus a couple of nice wines even got to taste a couple not originally planned which was great & the young man running the tasting was very knowledgeable & passionate
Lastly the tour operator was brilliant

A fun wine tour. Also safer, since we didn't have to drive after tasting. We liked all the wineries we visited, especially Rochford. Lunch was nice too. Our guide, Tony, was knowledgeable and funny. He even drove through the Country Club so we could see kangaroos. Would recommend.

The overall wine tour was fabulous. We got to learn about the great Australian wines. The bus driver/ tour guide was excellent. Worthwhile tour.

This tour could be amazing but it is detracted from one of the drivers Tony, who makes it all about him. From the incessant and deafening microphone commentary (which is irrelevant to anything about the tour) ensuring that half the party is either asleep or irritated before the first stop. I would advise if you book a tour, that you check who is driving because this was an experience I wish my group had avoided especially given it was for my friends birthday and was meant to be a special occasion.

We visited four wineries, and it was great that we could leisurely try five or six different types of wine at each one.
Although the tour was only in English, our very friendly driver/guide was reassuring, and we enjoyed chatting with fellow guests from various countries during lunch!
The majestic nature and the autumn-colored vineyards lit up by the sunlight were beautiful. It was a fun tour that I would like to go on again.

We visited the Yarra Valley with friends on the Aus Wine Company tour and had a great day out. We were collected promptly from Melbourne CBD and visit 4 vineyards before arriving back around 6pm. Lunch was delightful at Balgowie Estate and we tried many different types of wine during the day.
Yering Farm was a standout favourite, as it’s an amazing setting with good wine. We also tried their cider and it was very good, especially on the hot day we were there.
We would highly recommend and we will hopefully do it again someday!
