Fantastic Tour / Amazing Experience 💙💚💙 Our fourth and final tour took us to the beautiful region of the Yarra Valley. A fantastic day out with Richard and Kurt. Everything went to plan, there was no delays and we were back at the designated time ️

2 wine tasting experiences at Yering Farm Wines & Yering Station, cheese tasting at the Yarra Valley Pie Shop, a small stop at Hubert's Estate, chocolate tasting at the chocolateries and kangaroo spotting at the Eastern Golf Club.

Excellent value for money, thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommend Thank you for an amazing day!

Perfect Day Rich and Kurt were the perfect guides on my late morning tour. I had a blast. As a solo traveler I was nervous but they perfectly worked to create a warm inclusive tour group amongst our small group. Every stop was delightful with seeing the wild kangaroos at the end. WOW. They even made sure that I was able to get pictures and videos to send back to my family home schooling their children. You cannot spend a better time in the Yarra Valley with anyone else. Book this tour. You will not be sorry. In fact you will be very happy!

Food & Roos! Amazing experience with Elliott as our tour guide. Best of all was the 1130am departure and we had strawberries fresh and choc dipped, cheese, wine, Chandon, chocolate tastings and ended the day with the kangaroo safari! We had the best time. Highly recommend.

Great experience Had such a great experience with Mark!
So much knowledge about the wine regions and was so lovely and accomodating. 10/10 experience recommend to everyone :)

Mark was an amazing tour guide Mark was amazing!! He was very knowledgeable and provided us with some great information about the Yarra area, history and wineries we visited. We were a group of 7 girls and thoroughly enjoyed all of the wineries we were taken to. Definitely very worth the price and would highly recommend to any groups!!

Thank you, Mark! Mark has been amazing and couldn’t recommend him more. He was so accomodating and friendly and will definitely use him again!

Nice trip in Yara valley Elliot is amazing, nice trip today. The best part is the kangaroo safari.

Fantastic Day with an Amazing Guide! Amazing tour! We visited a winery and a chocolate factory, and even got to see wild kangaroos. The guide Elliot was friendly, funny, and super cute. Everything was well organized and enjoyable. Highly recommend! 🦘🍷🍫✨

Tour guide was extremely tall. Not recommended for people afraid of heights. :P (thanks Elliott for the ride & chat) Really funny tour guide. Entertaining and efficient.

Elliot is the greatest of all time We had a fantastic experience from stat to finish! Elliot made sure the trip was informative and entertaining! Truly can not recommended it more. The stops were great and the time spent at each was perfect. Fantastic if you're a local or visiting Melbourne for the first time.

Great! Really great tour. Elliot did an amazing job as our tour guide - definitely gave us some really interesting information. Activities were great.

Excellent for family Family friendly with a perfect balance of everything. Guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. Would recommend for any one.

Great fun Had an awesome day with Elliot. Visited some lovely places and was treated to some interesting facts about the area

Thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience We had a fantastic time. The wines were great and Elliot was a fantastic guide with lots stories as we were driving around. Highly recommend!

Great day out! We had a wonderful day doing wine and cheese tasting in the Yarra Valley. We visited some lovely wineries, tasted some really great wines and came away with some purchases. Elliot was delightful and played a huge part in our really positive experience.

Memorable day out with friends and wine Elliot was a fun tour guide. Great dude. We had a great day exploring the wineries and scenery of the Yarra valley! We enjoyed Chandon the best, and the weather was perfect for us! Stopped off at a gin distillery too at the end which was great. Wonderful day to spend with friends and new friends alike. Recommend!!

Nice chill daytour to Yarra Valley! Kurt is a great person and tour guide!! Great wines and chocolates, also saw some live kangaroo actions! Slightly overpriced considering no meals included (you do can order food at Chando at your own cost). Overall experience is still great.

Amazing experience with Yarra Valley Touring Co. Had an amazing experience in the Yarra Valley with Craig and Kurt, despite the fact that I am local to the area it was still such a fun trip and we visited many places I had never previously had the opportunity to. The tour guides are so friendly and knowledgeable. Super fun and informative for tourists and locals alike, would recommend this tour to anyone!!

It was a perfect tour from beginning to end! Kurt was our guide and he was so incredibly knowledgeable and so funny and kind! This tour is a little bit of everything! The fresh strawberries, the Chandon tastings, the cheese and wine tastings, the chocolate tastings, and the wild Kangaroo sightings! There are SO many Yarra Valley tours that it's overwhelming. We're so glad we came upon this one!! If you are looking, stop looking and book this one ASAP!!!

What an incredible experience this was with Yarra Valley Touring company!

From very the start, bubbles with kangaroos in the surrounding bush around our perfect “waterfall” cottage at Yering Gorge Cottages, past the smoothly landscaped Eastern golf course, my partner and I both knew we were in for a day filled with delights.

Our professional, calm and informed driver Craig, was fun and knowledgeable about the area he loves so much and had a warmth that was evident with every encounter with staff at each fantastic location we stoped in at.

The Yarra Valley dairy cheese tasting was personal, varied and delicious, the stop in for lunch at Domaine Chandon was exceptional and stylish, and the authentic French provincial atmosphere at Domaine Portet was a true delight.

Stag lane distillery was full of surprises (reaper gin and hot chocs) and the owners were incredibly friendly and informative as we were surrounded by an unparalleled panoramic vista.

Chocolate tastings were a dream for me, with Tania from Yarra Valley chocolaterie and it was clear how much they all love Craig, and their roles at the vivid and vibrant chocolate dream factory!

Our cottage was serene and warmed by our wood fire and the spa (not sure if that was in the other cottages) was a sensational end to a glorious day in the valley.

I would highly recommend this touring experience for couples wanting to romantically or simply relaxedly get away from it all and immerse themselves in nature, excellent food and wine and drink, and unwind in the perfect level of luxury and comfort.

Thanks Craig and all the crew at Yarra Valley Touring, we will most certainly be back very soon!!

Keep up the exceptional work.

A fantastic wine, cheese and chocolate tasting day in the beautiful Yarra Valley! Fabulous communication and service. A wonderful choice of wine tasting venues - from local farm style vineyards to the majestic Chandon! We enjoyed it all. The cheese was so delicious we had take out cheese for dinner! They even had a cool bag in the minivan to keep our purchases cool! A first rate experience! Thank you

We had an incredible day soaking in the stunning scenery of the Yarra Valley. Kurt, our guide, made the experience even more memorable with his fantastic sense of humour and impressive knowledge about Australia. I highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a great day out of the city, plus the chance to see iconic Aussie wildlife like kangaroos!

My friends and I had such a wonderful experience touring the Yarra Valley with Craig!

The itinerary was perfectly scheduled from fresh strawberries to beautiful wineries, delicious cheese tastings and chocolatier. One of the absolute highlights was the kangaroo safari, we saw a large mob of kangaroos in the wild, which made the day even more special!

Craig was such an exceptional guide, not only friendly and knowledgeable, but also genuinely warm and funny. Everything ran smoothly, you could tell a lot of thought had gone into making the experience enjoyable and seamless.

I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Melbourne. it’s definitely the perfect way to explore the Yarra Valley!

Relaxed Day in Wine Country Craig was a great tour guide! We hired him to take us on a vineyard tour through the Yarra Valley. He recommended a stop at a local dairy for cheese tasting as well. He was relaxed and flexible with timing. He was able to suggest additional stops when we had some extra time (local native art and kangaroo viewing). He was friendly and knowledgeable about the area, but also gave us space to enjoy our time together!

From cheese to Chandon to kangaroos: a perfect day out I joined the Yarra Valley Foodies Tour with Chandon & Kangaroo Safari as a solo traveler and honestly, I wasn't bored for a second. In just 6 hours, we packed in so much: strawberry picking, an incredible cheese tasting (honestly the best cheeses — I wish I could've taken some home!), a stop at Chandon (yes, the LVMH one) where the sparkling red was a standout, followed by a 5-wine tasting at another winery, then chocolate tasting, and finally the highlight — seeing kangaroos up close and in abundance.

Our host Curt was fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and shared great stories about Australia along the way. If you're looking for a well-rounded Yarra Valley experience with great food, wine, and wildlife, this is it. Highly recommend!

Awesome tour My wife Nancy and I went on the Yarra Valley Chandon and cheese and sunset kangaroos tour. It was awesome. Several wonderful wineries, great dairy cheese, scrumptious chocolate, and plenty of kangaroos at sunset.
Our guide Kurt was fantastic. Thoroughly knowledgeable about the valley, a wine expert, excellent driver, and well versed on wildlife. We had a wonderful time. Highly recommended.

Great Aussie Experience! Kurt was very knowledgeable, fun, engaging, and enhanced the Aussie experience! We went on our honeymoon and would recommend this as a great day activity!!! Thank you all!

Highly Recommend Had an amazing day. Great food and wine. Our tour guide Oliver was so good. Very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Would highly recommend.

A wonderful and memorable tour of the Yarra Valley!

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour which was perfectly balanced between cheese tasting, farm fresh strawberries, wineries, chocolate and an incredible experience of seeing kangaroos in the wild.
Craig was a friendly, knowledgeable and funny tour guide. The timings were spot on and the arrangements were seamless.

Highly recommend for anyone visiting Melbourne.

Excelent experience!!! It was a great experience I would highly recommend for anyone who wants to have a great time, drink solo wine and see kangaroos!!!! Our guide Craig was soooo nice he made the experience amazing so don’t hesitate to go with him.

Best tour ever this tour was unbelievable! Craig was an amazing guide and he made sure we had the best day possible. I loved the cheese and wine tasting. We got lucky it rained the night before so when Craig took us to the secret place to look for cangaroos, there were heaps of them! i’d do this tour again without hesitation

yarra valley tour yarra valley is absolutely stunning and the slowed down pace of the tour allowed us to enjoy the beauty of it. craig, our guide, was super warm and really added to the enjoyment of the whole tour. all the stops were organised super well - tastings were all prepared within 5 minutes of us reaching and the hosts were really friendly as well. the kangaroos at the end were a wonderful way to end off the day. would highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful Day & Unforgettable Experience

We had a truly wonderful experience today. The entire day was perfectly planned and full of amazing moments.

We started our journey with a visit to the strawberry farms, where we enjoyed fresh strawberry and cherry tasting — a delightful and refreshing start. Next, we visited a cheese tasting spot, and it was a really great experience with rich flavors and varieties.

After that, we visited two different places for wine tasting. Both wine tasting experiences were excellent and very well explained, making them enjoyable even for first-time tasters.

One of the highlights of the day was the chocolate tasting — wow! It was an absolutely fantastic experience. We loved it so much that we purchased generous bags of chocolates for our family and friends.

The final and most exciting stop was the golf course for the kangaroo safari. It was simply the best moment of the day — seeing kangaroos jumping right in front of us was magical and unforgettable.

A special thanks to Kurt, our tour guide, who truly made our day memorable with his wonderful storytelling, humor, and friendly nature. His jokes and knowledge kept us entertained throughout the journey.

Highly recommended tour — a perfect mix of nature, food, wine, wildlife, and fun!

One of the best tours My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour will Kurt as our guide and driver. He was knowledgeable and very entertaining. It was one of the best experiences of our trip to Melbourne. I would highly recommend it to anybody. It was a small group of 8 and everybody was so friendly. I would even recommend to to people who live in Melbourne as a treat.

Amazing! Awesome! Our guide Kurt was very knowledgeable and patient. We also appreciated how thoughtful he was, making sure we were hydrated and all comfortable.
The sights were amazing. I highly recommended. We’ll come back.

Exceptional Yarra Valley tour! Thanks again Kurt for the great trip to Yarra Valley! It was an exceptional tour! From the delicacies, the sceneries to your stories and information around the Valley. I would redo this tomorrow if I could!

We had the best tour today with Mark.
We started with a dairy farm, stopped at Chandon and lunch at Soumah with a last glass of wine at Riverstone Estate for outstanding views. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. Marc was very professional, attentive to our expectations and created a fantastic experience for us.

We had made some arrangements for a stay in the Yarra Valley and, because our accommodations--Yerring Valley Cottages--were remote, we needed some detailed transportation arrangements. First we needed. transport from Melbourne Tulamarine Airport to the cottages that included a stop at a grocery along the way for provisions, We also needed a wine, food and nature tour of the Yarra Valley. Finally we needed transport after our stay into Melbourne. We contacted Yarra Valley Touring company and Craig arranged all of this with one go at a very reasonable price.

The pickup and transport from MEL was flawless. The Wine Tour was exceptional with a great choice of historical wineries (boutique and luxurious) and actually ended at the best place around to see Kangaroos--Yering Gorge Cottages, our accommodations (and there are HUNDREDS of Kangaroos around).

The driver even gave us some tips about hiking around the property and where to find the resident wombat--which we did. Finally, when they picked us up at the cottages and provided door-to-door transport to our next accommodations in Melbourne.

Absolutely the best, friendliest, most responsive and most informative tour/transport firm I have ever used. Five stars! 10 out of 10. Would definitely use again!

Incredible experience! Craig is entertaining and very informative. The location visits were delicious. Wine, fresh fruits, cheese, chocolates, kangaroos and local farms. What more could we have asked for.

The fact that it is a small group tour is highly recommended. The experience is very personable.

I highly recommend going with The Yarra Valley Touring Company.

We had an amazing, tasty and informative tour with Craig in the Yarra Valley, with plenty of delicious stops from freshly picked fruits, creamy cheese, various wines to chocolate. It was accompanied by lots of interesting information not only about the valley, but also about the history of Melbourne. And he made sure we spotted plenty of wild Kangaroos on the way, which is an incredible addition! I can only recommend this tour, amazing value for money and plenty of nice memories!

Had a really great time with The Yarra Valley Touring Company! Mark was a great guide and accommodated to our request for Asian lunch even though he didnt have to. Throughout the tour, Mark took extra effort to bring us on slight detours, to show us the unique wildlife in Australia. This enhanced our tour and brought a special flavour to our tour. Really learned a great deal from Mark's sharing and would engage The Yarra Valley Touring Company if I have the chance again. In fact, we would be touring with them to the Great Ocean Road tomorrow! Looking forward to it!

Amazing day in the Yarra Valley Fantastic day in the Yarra Valley. Craig was so accommodating and flexible in terms of planning our private tour of the Yarra Valley. Started off at a diary for cheese tastings followed by wine at Yerring Station and Chandon where we had a light lunch. We also visited a charming family owned gin distillery.
Try the chilli gin at your peril! The countryside was stunning and the trip ended with kangaroo spotting prior to being dropped off at our hotel in Melbourne. It was a brilliant day and we loved it.

Great day at Yarra Valley. Had a great day out. Mark was very flexible and changed venue to a winery we have not done before. had great information about the area. Thank you Mark. He he made us feel Like friends. No customers

Highly reccomend It was such a beautiful area to explore. We felt so welcomed everywhere we visited. Our guides Kurt and Craig were awesome, they were well informed and entertaining. We will be recommending this trip to our family and friends.

A great day out A big thank you to Elliot for a great day out in the Yarra Valley. it had everything you promised; cheese, wine kangaroos etc.

Yarra valley tour Alliot is very friendly tour guide with knowledge for melbourne & yarra valley. Great experience to explore melbourbe

A lovely day with Elliot Beafifull experience with Elliot. Terrific guide, very kind. I love the trip. I am Juan from Argentina. I highly recomended it

Craig is the best Yarra Valley wine tour operator hands down, and I’ve been through plenty! He goes above and beyond to create a memorable experience, is very knowledgable about wine and the region, and has a great sense of humour. Nothing is too much of an ask and he really tailors the trip to suit the needs of the group. If you want an exceptional Yarra valley tour, don’t hesitate to go with Yarra valley touring co!

One-day tour We joined the tour with Alliot, and he was absolutely amazing! We’re from Taiwan, and he took great care of us throughout the trip. He was super friendly, gave clear and interesting introductions, and even interacted with everyone on the bus. We even got some chocolate as a fun little reward at the end! It was such a memorable one-day trip — highly recommended!

Excellent wine tour at Yarra Valley My mom and I booked a last minute wine tour with Craig and we had a wonderful time! It was only the two of us for that day so we felt like we had a private tour! Craig made sure that we maximized the entire trip and even gave us a souvenir and cooler bag for all the cheeses and wines we bought! Will definitely come back to Yarra Valley and book another tour with Craig.

I had a blast and I really appreciate the effort, knowledge and banter that Kurt offered.
We all laughed and had a great time.
I will be recommending this tour to my fellow Candians 🇨🇦

The only thing I'd like to add is if there's more of a selection of different types of cheese.(more hard cheese, brie)
Otherwise super well done job!
(The group asked to post this. We're a very good looking group if do say so myself😎)

We had a great experience! Met three lovely, knowledgeable tour guides who shared not only their wine expertise but also local history. The choice of venues was superb, a perfect mix of smaller boutique wineries and two of the more well-known ones and some cheese tasting, yummy 😋. The small group of six made the day feel personal and relaxed, and we later joined one of the other groups for tastings and food at Chandon ❤️. We finished the day at a new local gin distillery. A perfect ending to a wonderful day. Beautiful car, beautiful weather, great tour guides couldn’t have asked for more!

Fantastic and memorable Yarra Valley experience! The tour was absolutely wonderful.
There were only six of us in the group, and our guide Kurt was amazing — very friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the Yarra Valley. During the drive, he shared lots of fun facts and interesting stories about the Yarra River, Yarra Valley, and even some cool Melbourne trivia, which made the journey really enjoyable.
The schedule was well-paced, never rushed, and we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Kurt also took us to safely observe wild kangaroos and explained many fascinating things about them.
It was such a pleasant, fun, and memorable experience — I’d highly recommend this tour (and especially Kurt!) to anyone visiting Melbourne.

Absolutely amazing fully packed experience with great wines and kangaroos Absolutely amazing day. Kirk was very informative as we travelled to the yarra valley. Tried some really nice wines. Had amazing cheese tasting. Some lovely fresh strawberries and chocolate tasting. Kirk took care of us all day ensuring all our needs were met and to top it all off his knowledge of where the kangaroos would be and timings made for some great up close experience of kangaroos and photos. Thanks for making the experience so memorable.

Fun day out for all We had the best time out with both Craig and Kurt. Both guides were knowledgable and kept us entertained the whole trip. We were picked up from our door step (all the way from warburton) and nothing was too much for either guide!
Tour was great value, visiting a mix of small and large wineries with a great size group. Would highly recommend to everyone and will definitely tell family and friends back home!

Nice Thank you Tom for the awesome tour, we have a great time here!
