We had a fantastic tour round various vineyards in South Gippsland. Fantastic food as well as wine - and met some really interesting people. The weather was beautiful too. All the places we visited were very different and it was hard to choose which one we loved the best. Would thoroughly recommend this.

Best wine tour ever! The focus on small wineries in a relatively un-commercialised region mean we received a bespoke experience directly with the wine makers themselves. Ray was a fantastic tour guide and we had an unbelievable amount of pure fun!
