Yarra Valley Tour
Fun for all the Family - Full Day Tour
This private guided tour takes all the worry out of planning what to do with your family during your stay in the Yarra Valley. Your local tour guide will accompany you at each venue to ensure you see, taste, and experience the very best the Yarra Valley has to offer with your family - all your tickets, entry fees, tastings, meals, and drinks are included as part of your tour, so you can just sit back and enjoy a fun-filled day with experiences tailored just for your family.
When you book, we'll ask for your children’s ages so we can create the best day for you. If you have your dog with you, he/she will be looked after by your tour guide (and they'll go for a wonderful walk) while you're enjoying Healesville Sanctuary, and from lunch onwards you'll all be together for the rest of your tour - it really is a personalised tour the whole family can enjoy.
What's included?
Your tour will be custom created for your family based on the ages of your children, the day of the week and availability. Here's an example itinerary.
Your personal tour guide arrives to collect you in a Mercedes tour van. At Healesville Sanctuary you'll walk straight in (no queuing) to meet koalas, kangaroos and Australia’s native animals, finishing with the Bird of Prey show.
Enjoy lunch at a lovely cafe (or upgrade to a winery lunch) in the pretty town of Healesville (cafe lunch and drinks are included your tour price).
Off to a child-friendly winery where the grown-ups taste wine while the kids can do some colouring in or play games on the lawn.
If you'd prefer an alcohol-free option, we can take you for a cheese tasting - there are endless options.
Next we'll head over to the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie where the kids can try different types of chocolate or lick an ice cream, or do a chocolate-making class (if available) while you enjoy a coffee or hot chocolate with a piece of cake.
Did you know the Yarra Valley has roaring dinosaurs? At this 17-acre blueberry farm, we can also hunt for buried treasure and explore their Miniatures Garden - you're going to love visiting Oasis Berry Farms (they even open just for us, as we're VIPs).
Our last stop is a place where the kids can play giant Jenga, throw a frisbee, play cricket, kick a footy or toast marshmallows while you enjoy a late afternoon wine, beer, cider or gin tasting.
(There are a range of activities for kids to enjoy, dependant on which tasting option you select).
If you've selected our Alcohol Free option, we'll take you somewhere different.
At the end of your tour we will drop you back to your accommodation, happy and exhausted having had the best fun exploring the Yarra Valley.
