“This tour was a good way to sample the many offerings of Yarra Valley. You get a variety of different experiences (cheese, wine, gin, and chocolate as stated in the tour name), however each stop felt like the tour itself was very rushed and then we had too much time at the end to explore on our own and take photos. I was especially disappointed with the two winery stops, which felt very rushed and impersonal, with rather small pours. Again, I do think this is the best way to get a little experience with everything, but not so much the best if you are more interested in one specific…”

“The captain and crew were very knowledgeable about the area, and shared information clearly and with humor. The boat was comfortable, with a good selection of hot & cold beverages available for purchase. At frequent stops to view the amazing features of the coastline and, opportunistically, local wildlife,, the captain would slowly rotate the boat completely so that everyone could have a good view. We anchored right by the gorgeous beach in Wineglass Bay to have the tasty light lunch we signed up for. Weather was perfect! Well worth it!”
