Overview

WE HAVE THOUSANDS OF FIVE STAR REVIEWS!

We operate 7 days a week without fail! And it is a great thing to do if you are in Melbourne and it is raining all day!

After years of providing private group tours for friends, family and businesses, we realised how much we love to please people and try and go the extra mile to see a bigger smile at the end of the day.

So we built out our new Yarra Valley Public Tour that has the necessary itinerary but also has flexibility to split up the group depending on their preferences on wine, gin, food and chocolate.

What's Included

  • Alcoholic beverages Alcoholic Beverages
  • Bottled water A chilled bottle of water on the vehicle for you.
  • Driver with a good taste in music that takes requests
  • Lunch Lunch - We stop at a winery where you can buy or bring your own food. We felt you have more choice and freedom this way. Only food bought at the winery can consumed at the winery.
  • Hotel pick-ups and drop-offs

Hubert Estate

We visit 'Quarters' restaurant @ Hubert Estate every day for lunch and a look around their indigenous art gallery on the floor below their cellar door. If you brought your own food, you can eat it somewhere away from their grounds. We will sit in the restaurant and enjoy lunch together. Food and drink are not included in the tour price here, as to give you more freedom to enjoy whatever you choose for your lunch. They offer a wide variety of fantastic food here and cater for all dietary requirements. "With a menu full of Modern Australian and European inspired dishes, Quarters is perfect for foodies, families, and everyone in between. Think succulent steaks, vibrant local veg, and delicate, flaky fish. Feeling extra hungry? Try some pasta, handmade on site, and our incredible (yes, incredible) woodfired pizza, unlike any others in the region. Lucky everyone has a second stomach for dessert, because our dedicated team of pastry chefs will tempt anyone with a sweet tooth."

1 hour • Admission Ticket Free

Domaine Chandon

On the way to lunch at Hubert Estate, we can pull into Chandon, Yarra Valley's home of sparkling wine, for a photo and to browse their shop. There is no booking here. You can also have lunch there if you would like, instead of Hubert Estate, but you will have to contact Chandon yourself and make your lunch booking in your own name. (You will have to contact us to ask us what time you need to make this booking please). This would mean you would miss the 11.30am St Huberts wine tasting with the rest of the group. We would then pick you up at 1.30pm to head to The Chocolaterie for a private chocolate tasting together. At Hubert estate, we have lunch tables booked seven days a week. At Chandon, there is nothing booked and you will have to make your own booking if you would like to have lunch there.
