YARRA VALLEY PRIVATE TOUR
TOUR HIGHLIGHTS
One of Australia’s premier wine growing regions, the Yarra Valley is situated less than an hour from Melbourne. Despite its proximity to the bustling city, it feels a whole world away, with breathtaking scenery of rolling hills laced with vineyards against the backdrop of the Great Dividing Range.
On arrival to the Yarra Valley, visit the award-winning Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary. This internationally renowned bushland haven offers the chance to see iconic Australian wildlife including kangaroos, koalas, wombats and more. While at the sanctuary, see the elusive platypus in a fascinating and unique show ‘Tales from Platypus Creek’.
Indulge your senses as you savour current vintage, museum, and limited release wines at a selection of boutique cellar-doors such as Yarra Yering, Oakridge, Seville Estate, TarraWarra Estate, Pimpernel Wines and more. Best known for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the region also offers fine cool climate Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
A sumptuous lunch accompanied by estate wines will be served at one the region’s leading vineyard restaurants (Yering Station, TarraWarra or Oakridge) followed by an afternoon tailored to suit your tastes. Continue wine tasting, sample local cheese, visit the internationally acclaimed Four Pillars gin distillery or perhaps the TarraWarra Museum of Modern Art. Your guide can tailor the perfect afternoon to suit.
