Extremely easy to book and was one of the best days out with my friend! Almost like being in a different country as the group is so varied in age and culture, status etc. The driver, Nick, was very knowledgeable and great communicator. There was nothing that I didn't enjoy about the day. Even the weather put on a great show for us!!!

It's an easy and convenient way to experience new things. You just choose whatever you feel like at the time, knowing that you can always come back again and again. My friends and I had a fantastic time on our wine tour and it was great knowing that RedBalloon closely monitors the experiences they choose to have on their website.

Nick, the tour guide, knew his business (ie wines of the Yarra) and was very good at communicating his passion to the people on the tour. Good food, and great wine made a very enjoyable day out.

Our driver and tour guide Simon was fantastic. Very knowledgeable on the subject of wines and also entertaining. My daughter has been twice in six months on the same tour now, she enjoyed it so much the first time, so that speaks for itself. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about wines in an enjoyable and safe environment.

Our bus driver, Nick, took us to the Yarra Valley via the scenic route, rather than the motorway. Got to see beautiful countryside we never knew existed north-east of Melbourne. Nick was an absolute laugh all day, kept us entertained, as well as being very knowledgeable about the wine. He really made our day!

We rave about the interesting local wines, the talent Victoria has for creating quality wines and fortified wines, the interesting red sparkling that we are recommending for its originality, the friends from overseas we made on the day, the fabulous Autumn scenery in our own back yard, and the fun we had touring and trying.

It's a fantastic day out with friendly, experienced and enthusiastic wine lovers at every stop. Thanks for the entertainment and education. Walking through the cool, dim storage hall of un-labelled Chandon bottles was a rare experience.

The Yarra Valley Wine trip was well organised right from the minute we met with the bus driver. There were numerous opportunities to try a variety of wines, and the group tastings of wine were well explained. We were all most impressed with our driver who could remember virtually all participants names. A great day out!

Chris (the tour guide) was amazing. His knowledge of the wine industry was great and it was fantastic to have a guide who has studied and had experience in the wine industry and was not reading from a script for the tour. The choice of wineries was great and we all had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed it! I would definitely recommend it and will plan to go again. We had a great day!
