Tour de Vinho, Gin, Whisky e Chocolate no Vale de Yarra

Tive um tempo maravilhoso neste passeio de vinícola — definitivamente um dos pontos altos da minha viagem! Visitamos Soumah para uma degustação de vinhos, seguida por Hubert Estate, onde almoçamos. Também adorei que havia a opção de explorar a galeria lá, o que fez a parada parecer mais do que apenas sobre vinho. Também paramos na Yarra Valley Chocolaterie (uma viagem divertida e doce!) antes de seguir para Balgownie Estate. Em Balgownie, realmente apreciei que você podia escolher entre fazer outra degustação de vinhos ou apenas pegar uma taça e relaxar no deck — uma ótima maneira de apreciar a vista no seu próprio ritmo. Houve muita degustação de vinhos ao longo do dia, mas nunca pareceu apressado. Tudo foi agradável. Um grande agradecimento ao nosso guia, que estava sempre no horário, super organizado e sempre verificava se todos estavam bem. No geral, um passeio muito bem organizado com uma ótima mistura de vinho e paisagens. Recomendo 100% este passeio!

What an incredible day! Over the course of the day, we visited three beautiful wineries and sampled around 20 wines. The staff gave insightful explanations about each pour, and sipping them right next to the vineyard vines made it extra special. We also treated ourselves to some gin and whiskey (extra purchase, totally worth it). Lunch was served at one of the wineries, and we were pleasantly surprised – it was far from an afterthought; hearty, flavorful, and genuinely satisfying. Now, the real highlight: our guide and driver, David. He was absolutely fantastic. The smooth, safe driving meant we even caught some naps between stops. His playlist was impeccable, setting the perfect vibe for the day. Funny, patient, and never rushed, David gave us all the time we needed at each venue, and he thoughtfully had water ready for us throughout. Honestly, he made the tour unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour – and hope you get David as your guide!

Me encantó todo de este tour. Salimos puntuales, fuimos a varias bodegas y probamos muchas cosas, comimos un almuerzo delicioso, fuimos a la chocolatería y probamos varias cosas… el guía turístico también fue súper amable e informativo. ¡Lo recomendaría 100/100! ♥️

We had such an amazing day exploring the Yarra Valley! Our guide, Matt, was fantastic — full of energy, friendly, engaging, and really helped make the whole experience memorable. The tour was well-paced, with a great mix of wine, food, beautiful scenery, and plenty of time to enjoy each stop. St Hubert’s was definitely our favourite winery of the day 💯 The setting was beautiful, the wines were excellent, and the whole experience there really stood out. Such a fun and memorable way to experience the Yarra Valley. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Melbourne!

Me encanta lo inmersivo que es el tour. Las catas de vino en diferentes bodegas son absolutamente perfectas, ya que nos brindan una historia diferente, su origen y el proceso durante su plantación. Otra cosa es la experiencia de cata de chocolate, donde explican desde los granos hasta el chocolate. Me encantó cómo salió todo.

I really enjoyed this tour and thought it was very well-planned from start to finish. We visited two wineries in the morning and got to taste around 10 different wines, then had lunch, followed by a chocolatery stop for dessert. In the afternoon, we visited another winery where we could either continue wine tasting or just relax with non-alcoholic drinks, which I appreciated after having quite a bit of wine already 😄 I also loved the beautiful vineyard views along the way. Matt was a great driver and tour guide — easy to talk to, friendly, and he made me feel comfortable as a solo traveller. He also takes really good photos! Overall, this was such a chill and relaxing experience, and I’d definitely recommend it if you have extra time in Melbourne and want to try something a bit different.

Gilberto ist super nett, mit einem Hauch italienischer Würze, also supeeeer superrrr herzlich! Wir hatten anfangs Schwierigkeiten wegen des Alters meines Sohnes, aber Matt hat es geschafft, uns in Gilbertos größeren Bus zu setzen, ich bin ihm etwas schuldig! Die Reise war super, das Mittagessen war großartig, ich würde das auf jeden Fall in naher Zukunft wiederholen! Unser Favorit ist der Wein von St. Hubert, aber Soumah ist malerisch! Gilberto ist ein großartiger Babysitter, meine Söhne liebten ihn!

This is probably the best value for money Yarra Valley wine tour you'll ever find. 3 wineries where each gives you 5-6 tasting wines and a chocolatier where you get 12 artisan chocolates??? for A$130 including transport in this economy??? pretty amazing I'd say! also you'll get tons of beautiful pictures of and on the vineyard. also our tour guide, Tom, did an wonderful job today getting us everywhere safely, cracked some jokes to keep it fun and interesting, and put on a solid playlist along the way. would def recommend ✨

Tuvimos un increíble recorrido por los viñedos de Yarra Valley con Matt. Fue muy conocedor, amable e hizo que toda la experiencia fuera fluida y agradable. Excelente selección de bodegas y un ritmo perfecto durante todo el día. ¡Lo recomiendo encarecidamente!

Meine Mutter und ich hatten eine absolut wundervolle Zeit auf dieser Weintour während unserer Reise nach Melbourne. Die Weingüter waren wunderschön, die Weinproben ausgezeichnet und der gesamte Tag war von Anfang bis Ende gut organisiert. Ein riesiges Dankeschön an Matt, unseren Reiseleiter und Fahrer, der das Erlebnis wirklich besonders gemacht hat. Er war freundlich, einladend und sorgte dafür, dass sich alle während der Tour wohlfühlten. Besonders gut gefiel uns die Spotify-Playlist, die er während der Fahrt abspielte – sie war voller großartiger Lieder und schuf eine so lustige und entspannte Atmosphäre. Wir genossen die Musik fast so sehr wie den Wein! Matts großartige Persönlichkeit, sein lokales Wissen und seine echte Begeisterung machten den Tag noch unvergesslicher. Meine Mutter und ich haben jeden Moment der Tour sehr genossen und würden sie jedem empfehlen, der Melbourne besucht. Vielen Dank, Matt, dass du uns geholfen hast, so wundervolle Erinnerungen zu schaffen!
