Yarra Valley Gin, Wines, Beer/Cider Tour & Lunch from Melbourne
Overview
Get ready for a fun and carefree (all-inclusive) tasting tour of the Yarra Valley! This tour is all about sipping, savouring, and having a bunch of fun with new friends from all around the world - happy days!
In the morning we will visit two hand-picked wineries (for tastings) that showcase the region's amazing terroir and varietals. And to accompany the tastings, we'll treat you to shared grazing boards at the first winery.
Generally at the second winery, we’ll enjoy tastings followed by a mix of sumptuous and wood-fires pizzas with a glass of wine (or beer) for lunch - yummy and satisfying!
Our adventure doesn’t stop there! We're adding a twist to the tale as we make our way to the renowned Four Pillars Gin Distillery. Get ready to experience their tasting paddles, featuring four different gins and a mixer.
And for those who prefer a frothy delight, we've got you covered too! We'll make a final stop at a craft brewery, where you'll be treated to a paddle of beers or ciders.

I saw lot of excellent reviews DKT and decided to engage them on my winery tour @Melbourne. Absolutely fantastic time we had lasting little more than 8 hours on 24 oct 22. Sean makes all the difference with his intense passion for the job that he does, his ever friendly demeanor and tremendous ability to engage the tourist. What a person Sean is! Besides, his knowledge of the subject is of the highest order. Would love to engage DKT again if I get a chance. Ravi Shankar 👏👍lisamL7983CR

Shaun was fabulous! His energy is contagious and it is obvious that he loves what he does. His coach is brand new and absolutely lovely! It has lots of room and is very comfortable. We visited several small boutique wineries and had a delicious lunch at one of the wineries. The only thing I would change would be to pass on the chocolate factory and visit another winery. Don’t think about it, just book it! You will be glad you did!Jet634319

Best decision to go on this wine tour ever! We decided to go on this tour because it included the Four Pillars gin distillery, but the amount of care and thought that Sean had put in to curate this day trip was incredible. The contrast between the 2 wineries we visited - Helen & Joey and Yering Station, plus Coldstream brewery and Four Pillars. We had the best time! Sean, our host, was INCREDIBLE. He topped the experience with so much knowledge about the history of the Yarra Valley and wine making, as well as everything else about each venue we had visited! If you want to be thoroughly entertained and just have a real good time while visiting amazing wineries, brewery and distillery then this tour is for YOU!
