Rather
than self-driving around wineries and denying the driver the
pleasure of swallowing at the tastings you may like to opt for at least one escorted tour.
The three tours below are for small groups, sometimes for as few as two
people, and depart from and end in Melbourne,
at your hotel. The Yarra Valley is very accessible from Melbourne and, in
addition to a wide choice of wineries, has one of the best
private hotels in Australia, Chateau Yering. Equally accessible
is the less well known, beautiful Mt
Macedon area included in our third tour. Mt Macedon has many
newer wineries and of course the famous Hanging Rock.
