Fantastic tour with great guide - Ken was our tour guide for this trip and he was fantastic! He talked just enough and not too much. The scenery on the Mornington food and wine tour was fantastic. Ken even showed us some wild Kangaroos. This was by far the best tour of our Australian trip. When we come back to Australia we’ll be booking again with Explore Australia.

Wonderful day down the Mornington Peninsula - Excellent day out in the Mornington Peninsula, started by being picked up on a clean new bus by the friendly driver Ken and the adventure started there! Beautiful wineries and site seeing, only thing that would make it better would be to start seeing wineries or fruit/cheese at 10am, first winery was at 11am.
Would go again.

An excellent day! - This was one of, if not the best wine tour we have been on. Our tour/driver Matt was awesome - so friendly, engaging, knowledgeable and funny, he really bought the whole tour together - it was like we had all known each other for years.
The day was relaxed, informative and really good fun.

Great day out on the Mornington Peninsula - We were very fortunate that we only had a small group of 5 on our tour and we all got along very well. It was a great tour, which included a few vineyards, a few sightseeing opportunities and a brewery. It was a super fun day out!

Wonderful wine, beer and meal - Loved the 3 wineries we went to especially the second one (Red Hill Estate). Lunch stop was very good too as was our time at the Brewery. All in all a very lovely day

Good winery tour but could be a little sweeter - The guide cum driver, Ken is a fantastic host. Lovely wineries, however the wines were a little too light. The two wines my group liked was the Syrah at lunch and the Shiraz Grenache from one of the wineries. And none of the wineries had dessert wine which is one of our favourites. That’s why the rating is 4 stars.

Wine tasting enjoyable but trail too long - Winery stops were interesting, our favourite being Pt.Leo which also boasts an amazing sculpture garden. Didn't enjoy the brewery stop at the end though. Bus journey there was very long especially as a separate group had to be dropped off at a hot springs retreat first which then necessitated several miles across unsurfaced roads.

A welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the city - Nice wines (although some are a little stingy in their pours), good company and good break from the city,
