Effortless Fun - PDo you like wine (or gin, or beer)? Do you want a hassle-free day where you can drink and not worry about driving? If the answers are yes, then this tour is for you. John was engaging and knowledgeable about the region in general and the specific wineries. He was easy to contact both before, and throughout, the day on WhatsApp. You can plan out your day yourself, or use the Hop It expertise to guide your choices. Case in point- John quickly helped us pivot when one of the wineries we picked ended up not being to our liking. Highly recommend! 👍👍

Lovely, social day - Stellar experience. As always, on time departure and arrival from Melbourne CBD, and great adjustments made for each group on the bus within the timetable. Friendly vibe and a brilliant (the only?) way to enjoy the many wonderful wineries of the Yarra Valley. Perfect balance of giving enough information to enjoy the day and letting the Hoppers find their own way.

Can't go wrong for your visit to Yarra Valley - We had such a wonderful day with Sara, who went out of her way to make our day as great as possible and fit in with our booked accommodation in the Yarra Valley. It felt like we were travelling with a friend with lots of lovely chats. Sara is very knowledgeable and gave us advice and recommendations. Would highly recommend Hop it for your Yarra Valley experience, it really is great value for what you get - to tailor your own day, not needing to be involved in an actual wine tour, and not need to drive around yourself!

Highly recommend !!! - Highly recommend !! My family and I used hop it tour in the yarra valley for our first visit. We were staying in healesville so got picked up from four pillars which was a bonus. Super easy, you choose your stops from the timetable, which makes it very flexible and allows you to choose which vineyards to visit which most tours charge extra for. Also Ceps was a great driver, entertaining and gave us local knowledge in the area.

Highly Recommend! - I was incredibly impressed with this service. The attention to detail is off the charts, really making sure what could be a complicated day of schedules and timing is not a worry for passengers, but completely in-hand by the very experienced and knowledgeable driver. John was amazing - super friendly, accommodating, and incredibly knowledgeable about all the winery offerings, both food & beverage. This was great value and I'd recommend it to anyone thinking of touring the Yarra Valley!
