Tolle Yarra Valley Tour

Wir hatten super viel Spaß auf unserer Tour mit Rick ins Yarra Valley. Jedes der drei Weingüter hatte seinen eigenen Charme. Das Mittagessen war sehr hochwertig. Auf der Fahrt hat uns Rick super viele spannende Infos rund um Melbourne und das Valley mitgegeben. Wir hatten sogar genug Zeit, um noch zwei zusätzliche Gin Tastings einzubauen. Das Schokoladen- und Fruittasting haben das Ganze abgerundet.

Schöner Tag

Sehr nette Truppe und das Wetter war prima. Der Fahrer hat nur wenige Infos gegeben und war aus meiner Sicht kein richtiger Tourguide - vielleicht ist das auch nicht seine Rolle. Die getesteten Weine selbst fand ich persönlich nicht sonderlich lecker. Ähnliches habe ich auch von den weiteren Teilnehmern vernommen. Das Mittagessen war sehr gut und reichlich.

Worth it - a great day trip

November 2024. Great day trip well worth the price. Van has air conditioning. Rick is very passionate and knowledgable about the Yarra valley and an excellent host. Enjoyed two wineries both with very generous pours. Lunch was delicious. Finished the tour with a trip to the chocolate factory for dessert.

Fabulous day out in Yarra Valley

Throughout enjoyable day spent with Rick in the Yarra Valley. Central pick up spot near Flinders Station. Great commentary along the way, especially liked the Melbourne history. The wine/food exceeded our expectations. Rate this trip as great value for money!
