About This Experience

The 1.35pm departure leaves Lilydale Train Station and rolls through leafy suburbs and open farmland into the heart of the Yarra Valley, Victoria's most iconic wine region, returning about 5.20pm. First stop is Helen & Joey Estate, where a premium hilltop setting, shared grazing board and sweeping valley views open the afternoon. Then it's Payten & Jones, an urban-style cellar door known for expressive small-batch wines and creative flair, before finishing at Soumah, a picturesque hilltop estate with endless photo opportunities among the vines. At each venue, a guided tasting works through 4-plus cool-climate varietals that show off the region's signature style — and at one stop you can choose between the laid-back Payten & Jones or a refined Four Pillars gin tasting instead (or both). Groups are capped at 15, with a guaranteed window seat, onboard WiFi and USB charging, and free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. • Depart Lilydale Train Station 1.35pm; return approximately 5.20pm • Helen & Joey Estate: hilltop tasting with shared grazing board • Payten & Jones: expressive small-batch wines at an urban-style cellar door • Soumah: hilltop estate and photo stops among the vines • Guided tastings of 4+ cool-climate varietals at each winery • Optional locally crafted gin tasting at Four Pillars Food and drink beyond what is stated is not included.
