We were lucky enough to have the eponymous Rick as our tour guide and he made sure we had a marvelous time. Each stop had something tasty to offer, from the farm with its fantastic spread of local produce to the wineries - all great variety. I also liked that it was a small group tour, it just felt way more intimate and making the friends was all the easier with the wine flowing. Rick himself is really attentive and great to have a chat with. Expect to fall asleep on the trip back into the CBD. Everything about this tour gave me a warm, fuzzy feeling. Thank you so much!

We had a splendid tour with Bernie! He made sure we had a great time, and was a really fun guide. The lunch options were splendid and loved the variety of wineries in the itinerary. Would definitely recommend this for anyone visiting Melbourne! You get more than you pay for.

We had an amazing day in Yarra Valley. Rick took us to three great winerys. Lunch was of such a high quality at Rochford. Really loved the chocolate tasting as well as the fruit tasting in the morning. We even had time to do two additional gin tastings: one after lunch at Rochford and one at Four Pillars. Rick also told us so many things about Melbourne and Yarra Valley. Really recommend!

Absolutely fantastic day! Rick was a brilliant tour guide, he was very informative. I felt our tour was personalised to us and felt well looked after, we were very impressed. The wineries he took us too were great, and the lunch spot served 10/10 pizza’s. We also enjoyed the morning stops to try local fresh fruit and chocolates. Definitely great value for money. Would definitely go again and recommend Rick’s wine tours to friends and family!

Rick was a friendly and kind person who had a good knowledge of the history of Melbourne and different types of wine. His car was clean and comfortable, and the places he selected to visit were great.

ToniGladstone

My daughter & myself booked a public wine tour but due to it being Grand Prix weekend and having no other bookings, instead of cancelling our tour Rick himself took us both on a private tour of the Yarra Valley. We both had a fun & fabulous day including visiting 4 wineries, Rick couldn’t have been more accommodating. Definitely would recommend Rick’s Wine Tours. Thanks heaps Rick.
