Daily Yarra Valley Wine Tours

Taste The Flavours of Victoria’s Best Wines

Are you by yourself?
Or maybe with a friend or two? Join our group winery tour!

We will take you to five of Yarra Valley’s most popular and photographical wineries, Chocolaterie, cheesery and gin distillery for wine tastings and lunch.
You can bring your own food, or you will get the chance to buy your own when we visit Hubert Estate for lunch. All tastings are included in the tour price.

We don’t do rushed, awkward group tours. We do relaxed days out where the wine’s flowing, the views are rolling, and the people are easy to talk to. Our daily public tours through the Yarra Valley are a chance to unwind, explore, and enjoy hand-picked wineries, distilleries, and food stops with a group that feels like a gathering, not a crowd.

Think of it as a ready-made day trip from Melbourne with zero hassle. Red Carpet Wine Tours know the best spots and the smoothest routes.

Quarters Restaurant @ Hubert Estate, where we all sit on one or two tables together, where we all order and pay for our own lunch and drinks.

If you are quick with lunch, we will happily run you to Domaine Chandon for a photo opportunity of the beautiful view or you can quickly pop in and buy a bottle of their famous sparkling wine.

Frequently Asked Questions

The bus leaves from the beautiful Federation Square in the heart of Melbourne’s CBD. So we suggest you arrive well before your departure time and take a wander through Federation Square and take in the sights. Then get to the bus nice and early and check in with us and get your pick of the seats. The bus leaves promptly at departure time every single day.

Absolutely! You will be spoilt for choice for food and drink in the Yarra Valley but you can bring whatever you like as long as it is not consumed at any of the venues we visit.

Unfortunately not. All tickets are the same price, but we will get you a drink at each venue instead of a wine tasting.

At exactly the same place we picked you up from 🙂

We thought we would give you some freedom on the tour, so we stop for lunch where you can eat your own snacks somehwere away from the winery and the bus or you can join the group inside and order your own lunch and pay with cash or card.

Apart from an awesome host driver, we never know what type of people or nationalities will be on the bus. That’s the beauty of our public tour!

If you want to have your own private tour on one of our many different vehicles, then fill in our enquiry form and we will give you a quick call to discuss what you would like to do, where you would like to visit and where you want to be picked up from.
