Experience the best of nature and indulgence on our Redwoods & Wine Tour, a small-group journey through the stunning Yarra Valley. With a relaxed pace and a focus on the region’s food, wine, and harvest experiences, it’s the perfect day out from Melbourne.
We begin with free time in Warburton, a charming riverside village nestled in the mountains, before stepping into one of the region’s true highlights — the towering Californian Redwoods. Wander beneath these majestic giants as light filters through the canopy, creating a peaceful and unforgettable atmosphere.
From here, tailor the day your way. Visit a Yarra Valley winery for a relaxed lunch and wine tasting with stunning views, or enjoy the Rayners Orchard experience with tractor fruit picking, unlimited seasonal tastings, and a farm-style lunch.
We finish with a scenic stop to unwind, take in the views, and soak up the valley before returning to Melbourne.
