Fabulous day out in the Yarra Valley
Yarra Valley tour was amazing with a friendly and knowledgeable guide Raquel. Would highly recommend
A perfect day, to sample wines, cheeses, and enjoy the countryside scenery around Melbourne!
We loved the Go West Grazing tour around the Yarra Valley. Our guide, Joni was very knowledgable of the area and had good, easy communication with all on the tour. He knew all the venue owners personally which made the trip feel connected. Rochford wines were first. Really good guide and tasting. Cheese next, where we met Sparkles the dog. A sumptuous platter was provided for each group, along with home made pickles. Then on to Stag gins where all the botanicals are grown onsite. Really special stuff! Chocolate tasting felt a bit rushed, but that was down to the girl leading the session. It felt like she had done it hundreds of times before and it was just a job. Chocolate was good though. The ice cream was better! Coffee in Healesville was an extra treat. It’s a nice town to browse through and the coffee was lovely, served beautifully. All in a great trip. Would recommend this as a great way to see the Yarra valley in one day.
Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear you had such a great time on our Yarra Valley Grazing tour. It’s wonderful to know that Jono made your day so enjoyable — his local knowledge and friendly approach really do make a difference, and we’re glad you felt that personal connection throughout the tour. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the stops along the way (and meeting Sparkles too!), and we appreciate your feedback regarding the chocolate tasting — we’ll be sure to pass that along. Having experienced the Yarra Valley with us, we hope you might join us again one day to explore more of what Victoria has to offer. Thanks again for your kind words & very best wishes for your onward adventures.
