Eric Ng25 August 2026We had the loveliest family trips with Red Carpet Tours! Our Yarra Valley tour with Matt was relaxed, kid-friendly (provided hot chocolate & apple juice “tasting” for my daughter), and we enjoyed wonderful wine tastings and delicious local treats. Our Great Ocean Road tour with Doc was magical — he helped us spot wild kangaroos at Anglesea Golf Club, kept the kids engaged with fun facts about the coast, and made sure we saw all the iconic sights without rushing. Matt and Doc are both warm, attentive local guides who go above and beyond. The whole experience was seamless and stress-free, we can’t recommend this tour company enough!Posted on Google
