Highlights
Just an hour from Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is globally renowned for its outstanding chardonnay, pinot noir, and sparkling wines, and stands as Victoria’s most prestigious wine region. This small group tour takes a scenic journey through bushland, vineyards, and farmland en route from the city. Along the way, you’ll visit four cellar doors—spanning boutique, mid-sized, and larger producers—giving you a comprehensive taste of what the region does best. The experience also includes a restaurant-quality main course at Yering Station, home to the Valley’s first vineyard planted in 1838.

5Our tour guide / driver...
Our tour guide / driver Paul was very informative about everywhere we went. The day was well planned & everything went without a hitch. I would recommend this tour to everyone.
3Good
We did not go to domaine Chandon to my greatest disappointment and Levantine. I would have skipped yering station. Not very warm as ambiance for testing. Felt like they rushed I would have loved to see the barrels and production tour No a / c in vehicle Cam was great guide and host.
5Absolutely book this if you love wine
It was awesome! Each person leading the tasting was so knowledgeable. Rob shared great expertise on the drives to and from. The other members of our group were pleasant. The lunch at yering station was to die for. The bottle of honeymoon wine was a thoughtful touch as well.
5A Tour Worth Taking
If you’re looking for a local winery experience + looking to purchase wines that you wouldn’t be able to purchase them outside Australia, this tour is for you! It was also a bit of a life-changing experience for me when it came to goat cheese and blue cheese — neither are usually my thing, but somehow they tasted SO good at the winery! 😂 Yarra Valley has such amazing views, especially during lunch. The lunch options were great too! Paul was also a great guide throughout the day, doing his best to show us around and share what makes the Yarra Valley special. Definitely a trip worthwhile, and I’m so glad a friend recommended it to me. I hope you’ll be tempted to give it a try too! 🍷🧀
5Memorable Tour of Yarra Valley
We had a fantastic and fun one-day tour of the beautiful Yarra Valley with Paul of Vinetrekker Wine Tours. Paul is very knowledgeable about wine in general and about the Yarra Valley in particular. We learned a lot and tasted some awesome wines in the four excellent wineries we visited. The tour came with a very nice lunch, and all wine tastings were included. Moreover, Paul was great company and he took extremely good care of us throughout the day, tailoring the tour to our interests and tastes. He was also very generous with his time and we never felt rushed. To top it all off, Paul is kindly helping us ship some wines back home. In all, we had an outstanding experience. Highly recommended!
5Great day out.
Great day out with our guide Paul from VINETREKKERS. The wine experience was wonderful & the lunch was amazing. Highly recommended this tour.

About Melbourne
Melbourne is the capital of Victoria on the Yarra River, known for laneway cafés, street art, grand Victorian buildings and a calendar full of sport.
Melbourne grew rich on the gold rush of the 1850s, and the grand buildings from that time still stand in the grid of the city centre, among them Flinders Street Station with its yellow facade and the domed Royal Exhibition Building. Federation Square and the National Gallery of Victoria stand close to the Yarra, and trams rattle along the main streets. Narrow lanes such as Hosier Lane are covered in ever-changing street art.
Top-ranked sights in Melbourne: Loch Ard Gorge, Twelve Apostles, Great Ocean Road.
