Overall, the tour was average. The day felt slightly rushed. Lunch lasted only 45 minutes which also included a wine tasting. We stopped at the Balgownie Estate Winery for lunch but it was unfortunate to learn that their restaurant had burnt down in October 2020. Because of this, we had to have lunch in a corporate tent, which wasn’t ideal as we couldn’t enjoy the nice views/sunshine. We felt that the tour could’ve been changed to stop at a different winery for lunch. Having said this, the bus driver was personable and the wine tour company was very responsive with our requests and accomodating of our large group.

Needing to go to the toilet used as a sense of urgency to drop us off quickly was the lowest point of the day. The driver passed numerous bathrooms and didn’t want to waste a minute on letting us relieve ourselves. Otherwise great day.

Enjoyed a full day Yarra Valley wine tour via Chill-Out Wine tours. We were collected on time by our driver for the day Ivan. Ivan’s knowledge of wine & the area we are in was excellent & the winery’s we visited were all fantastic. Lunch was at “Soumah” and included in the price, very enjoyable. I would recommend Chill-Out Wine Tours for anyone looking to experience the Yarra Valley wine region. A great day out.

Spent a lovely day at the Yarra Valley. Our driver Tony was very knowlegable and ensured that we all kept to the schedule. We visited for wineries at Greenstone, Balgownie, where we also had lunch, Yering and Soumah. We particularly enjoyed Soumah most as wines there was really good as was the setting. We were disappointed to find the day before our tour that there had been a change to the itinarary and that we would not be going to Domain Chandon (DM)which was the main place we wished to visit. Apparently some if not all private tours such as these are not currently accepted by the Winery. If anyone wishes to visit DM maybe they should go independently or with operator who can give assurances. Despite this we learnt a lot, had a great day, were lucky to find ourselves in a equally minded good group, sampling over 30 wines. Would recommend.
