The Yarra Valley Touring Company

The Yarra Valley Touring Company operates exclusively private tours from Lilydale — at the gateway to the Yarra Valley — with a focus on premium experiences that go beyond the standard cellar door visit. Half a dozen fresh Australian oysters shared between two with a flute of bubbles at Chandon. A sumptuous 3-course meal at Yering Station. These are the details that set this operator apart from the larger, higher-volume tour companies. Private tours are available for groups of 2 to 11, with pricing that reflects the intimate, high-quality nature of the experience: $595 per person for 2 guests, $450 per person for 3 to 6 guests, and $295 per person for 7 to 11 guests. Pick-up and return from any address in Melbourne suburbs or the Yarra Valley is included — making the service fully door-to-door regardless of where your group is staying. The Yarra Valley Touring Company also runs dedicated wine and gin tours, pairing the valley's cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay estates with visits to local gin distilleries — a route through the Upper Yarra's most interesting producers that extends well beyond the standard winery loop. Healesville and the Upper Yarra are the backdrop: a landscape of rolling hills, tall eucalypts and some of Victoria's most celebrated wine estates. For guests who want a genuinely premium, unhurried day in the Yarra Valley — not a pub lunch and a bus — this is one of the strongest private tour options in the region. Ready to book?
