“Overall this experience was good. Although when we stopped at 2 of the wineries they didn’t seem very happy to have us there doing tastings. Windy Creek winery was beautiful but only allowed about 10 minutes to sample their wines. Garbin estate also rushed us. They way they were rushing people made it so that they did not get any sales. I would recommend this tour but perhaps the organisers should look at the wineries they stop at and maybe find alternatives or give them this feedback so they can be more accommodating.”

15.Mornington Peninsula Winery Bus Tour with Lunch & Wine

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 15 reviews · 7 hours · from $138

Travel from central Melbourne to four Mornington Peninsula wineries with an English-speaking guide. You will enjoy tastings, lunch with a glass of wine, and scenic photo stops. Past hosts have included Bill, Adrian, and Norm, though your guide may vary.

“Bill was a great driver, but it would be a nice idea for some commentary along the way, especially for those of us not from Victoria. The van was a bit tired, and felt like it had seen better days The tour seemed a bit disconnected, and with the exception of one stop, the other stops put little to no effort into telling us about their wines, I would have thought that they would want to "sell us up" so that we were leaving with some bottles under our arms, rather than making us feel like an inconvenience. This is no fault of the tour operator but the winery themselves.”
