If I could give this 6 stars I would This tour was above and beyond what I expected. John, our driver was so nice and super friendly he went out of his way to make the day extra special for us. We had a wonderful time in the Peninsula and even seeing some of the sights around Philip Bay. Lunch was incredible and the handmade morning tea was a wonderful touch. I would super recommend the trip to the Mornington Peninsula to anyone and I am sure that they are just as amazing on the rest of their tours. View reviewAlexT7801

Professional, Fun, and Complete Took two separate tours with Wine Tours and each one has professionals who knew their subject, were timely and fun. The wineries we visited were perfect to get a good knowledge of Australian wines and the lunch was pleasant and delicious. Cannot recommend the Wine Tours group more! View reviewKendraelaine

A Great Day Out Trevor and the team were so accommodating and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend using this Wine Tour company, they tailor the day to you and you can go at your own pace and follow your own interests. We had an absolute great time, learnt a lot about wine and the Mornington Peninsula and took home some great memories (and a few bottles as well). View review

We booked a wine tour of the Macedon Ranges. We chose this area because we wanted a laid back, leisurely tasting experience. We got exactly that. Trevor picked us up right on time at our hotel in downtown Melbourne. It was very nice in that it was just our group (3 people) in the van. We stopped in the shadow of Hanging Rock for a quick coffee break.
We were amazed and delighted when Trevor pulled out the tablecloth, French press and homemade fruit cake from the back of the van. My daughter was delighted that she finally saw a kangaroo. We then visited a total of 3 wineries: Cope Williams, Hanging Rock, and Granite Hills. All had exceptional wines. Trevor is extremely knowledgeable about wine and the history of the area. The scenery is spectacular so the drives between wineries went by very quickly. Trevor arranged for a pub lunch for us which was delicious. All in all it was a fantastic day and well worth it.

Best 2 wine tours I have experienced in Victoria!!. Visited the Bellarine Peninsula & Macedon Ranges. Food and wine were excellent and our drivers, Trevor and John were a wealth of local knowledge and the scenery was just stunning. Be sure to take your camera and get ready for an amazing day out. Oh, and the home made goodies for morning tea are just divine. Thanks guys for a wonderful experience. Love the benefits of small tour groups.

Amazing day of wine tour with Melissa, our guide. We enjoyed a very personalised experience with loads of warm hospitality. Melissa made us feel like we were travelling with close friends rather than guide & customers. The wineries we visited in the Macedon Ranges were superb! Especially Granite Hill – our last stop where we had a very good chat with Llew, the very knowledgeable wine maker and got to admire an amazing sunset over the vineyard too! Beautiful wines all the way through – just wished we could buy more bottles but we were constrainted by weight limitations for our luggage. Lunch was tasty & SUBSTANTIAL! Fruit cake for the picnic baked by Trevor was also delish! And Trevor was very prompt in responding to emails when we made our booking – so that’s awesome!
Family and I had a wonderful time visiting wineries in the beautiful Macedon ranges outside of Melbourne. Our driver and tour guide Helena was superb and a fountain of information.
Had a morning stop at the very pretty Hanging Rock Park where we had great coffee and cake picnic style. Stopped mid-day for a wonderful lunch and had the great fortune to meet the owner of Wine Tours Victoria Trevor who was also guiding another tour and having lunch with them also. Told Trevor my only regret was not having enough vacation time left in Melbourne to do another regional wine tour with him. Trevor your company is great. We were all treated like family members rather than mere numbers. Highly recommend this company.
