A day out in the Yarra Valley - Very well organized. Allison showed us a great time and customized it to what we wanted to do as it was a small group the day we did it. Would definitely recommend!

Relaxing way to enjoy Yarra Valley - We were in Melbourne for the Australian Open and the Yarra Valley Food & Wine Region tour was just what we needed to take a break between our tennis-watching days. Libbie met us at the train station and informed us that it would be a private tour with just our party of two — what a treat! The morning bike ride was easy and straightforward, and the winery visit in the afternoon was so peaceful and relaxing. We even got to see a kookaburra on the trip! Thank you, Libbie, for a most enjoyable day.

Yarra Valley Cycling, Food & Wine Tour - So much fun to drive barely an hour from Melbourne and find ourselves surrounded by greenery, wildlife and friendly locals. Seriously though, the bike riding was so perfect (great, comfortable bikes) and safe riding on dedicated tracks with plenty of diversion, morning tea, followed by fun refreshments and the big finale, after good riding, was a sumptuous lunch at Killara Winery which has fantastic food, fabulous views & the wine is just a bonus. Our hosts had great knowledge of the area which made me smile because I always thought, “I’m in good hands!” Thank you Alli & Libby.

Fabulous Cycling and Feasting tour - The Warburton Rail Trail was so peaceful amongst sections of forest and farmlands. Alli and Libby were very organised and knowledgeable about the history of the area. We visited the Carriage cafe for yummy Devonshire tea and finished with a fabulous lunch at a vineyard.
We really enjoyed it so much we plan to ride with them again!

Amazing day in the Yarra Valley! - My partner & I planned our Yarra Valley trip around this tour and we had the most amazing time.
We were lucky enough to have both Allison & Libbie guide us through a wonderful day in the Yarra Valley. After a leisurely cycle with amazing views, the local knowledge of our tour guides (+ friends for the day!) took us to 2x amazing wineries with epic views and even better tastings.
A 3 course lunch at the first winery was not only delicious, but lined our stomachs so we could have a few extra vinos! We paid a bit extra so we could get picked up and dropped off and not have to worry about driving, which was perfect.
All in all a great day which gives you a taste of the brilliant Yarra Valley, made better by 2 amazing tour guides in Libbie & Allison.
We’ll be back for another tour soon!
With gratitude,
Mitch & Laura.

Amazing Cycling Tour - A little delayed, but brought a group of executives to Yarra Valley last month. Allison and Libbie were very accommodating and the group had an excellent time together. It was a great team bonding exercise and the scenery was amazing. Would highly recommend this to anyone who wants a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Yarra Valley wineries x cycling tour - The cycling x wine tour was INCREDIBLE! I had a superb time with Alison (my tour guide). I was very lucky in having a private tour. Alison was extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. As I was doing this on my own, Alison basically tailored the whole thing according to my needs and wishes. Cycling along a rail track was a very fun experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone who likes to do sth different while they are in Melbourne.

Awesome Tour with friendly hosts - My wife and I had a wonderful day with Libbie and Allison on our bike tour through the most beautiful scenery along the bike trails. They hosted us at two wineries, a coffee shop, and chocolate factory. They were such pleasant people and may the the day so much more than just a bike ride! The ride itself was on great bikes and along a former railroad right of way which made the cycling smooth and very easy-no big hills. The two wineries were welcoming and the tastings were good-we purchased bottles at each which were carried in our hosts Range Rover "chase car". Libbie and Allison gave us door-to-door service from our hotel in the CBD. We enjoyed every minute and highly recommend their tour!
