We had the most wonderful day with Van du Vin exploring the Canberra wine region.Laura really listened to what we were looking for and understood our wine preferences, choosing four wineries that were a perfect match for our interests and favourite grape varieties. Every winery we visited was memorable in its own way, and we tasted some truly beautiful wines.The lunch stop was also wonderful and added to what was a relaxed, enjoyable and very memorable day.Thank you, Laura, for putting together such a thoughtful itinerary and for giving us a fantastic introduction to the Canberra wine region. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!

Exceptional Private Wine Tour in Canberra. ​We had an absolute blast on our private wine tour through the Canberra region. Our guide, Laura, was incredible so knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the wine scene. She curated a fantastic itinerary with a perfect balance of established, iconic wineries and hidden gem vineyards we never would have discovered on our own. ​Every stop served fantastic wine, and the level of personalised service throughout the entire day was top-notch. If you’re looking for an effortless, high-quality, and fun way to explore Canberra's wine country, look no further. Highly recommended!

Van Du Vin for the win! If you want to drink some of the regions finest wine and learn some wine knowledge then Laura’s your lady! The transportation, the wine and the food are exceptional! I’m not sure I was ever a wine connoisseur but now I’m ready to build my first cellar!

Our wine tour with Laura at Van Du Vin was outstanding. She demonstrated genuine expertise about local Canberra region and international wines, and made the entire experience accessible and enjoyable regardless of our wine knowledge.The tour was perfectly paced throughout the day. Travel between the selected local Canberra wineries was comfortable, giving us ample time to taste and absorb information without feeling rushed. Laura's behind-the-scenes insights about the winemakers and regional wine industry were particularly valuable. Laura contextualised Canberra's offerings against established wine regions in France, Italy, Germany, Europe, and America in ways that really improved our understanding.What stood out most was the welcoming atmosphere. The winery owners personally served each tasting and explained their winemaking process with enthusiasm and clarity. There was never any pressure to purchase, and we never felt inadequate..The lunch stop was thoughtfully timed, allowing us to relax and enjoy the surroundings on our own.Van Du Vin delivered a well-organised, professionally executed tour that enhanced our knowledge and appreciation of Canberra wines. We highly recommend it.

Laura was absolutely amazing! The owners and staff were top-notch and flawless. We had great laughs and a lot of fun.

Laura was one of the best guides we have ever met, so knowledgeable and great conversation, highly recommend!

My friends and I had an absolutely fantastic day with Laura and Rob. The care the team puts in to make sure you’re getting to see the best of the Canberra region and sipping on some of your favourite varieties is amazing. Can’t wait for next time!

Laura was Punctual, professional, knowledgeable. Great selection of wineries. We did 4, which was perfect for the timings. A reasonable price for the experience. And it was an experience not just a "day out".

Excellent choice of vineyards, lunch included, great wine knowledge and knowledge of the region for good growing varieties. Very relaxed pace and banter. Very personal touch was appreciated.

Picked up exactly on time by the extremely knowledgeable Laura, driven in a very comfortable car to Murrumbateman wine region. The wineries she selected were all different and the service at all was great. I really liked sitting down to taste test, much better than standing at the bar. Scrummy lunch at Brindabella, and wine ordered delivered to car for us at each winery. We lingered longer than we should but it was no problem to Laura. We would highly recommend this excellent tour, and it’s equally excellent tour guide. Thank you Laura.

Besides the War Memorial and Parliment House, Canberra's wine region is a must visit for visiters and locals alike. What better way to enjoy this experience and learn so much about our wines and the wine makers than joining Laura on a private tour of four wineries of your choosing. We recently enjoyed our second experience (both celebrating birthdays) learning, laughing and making wonderful memories. We have wonderful wines to savour later and we didn't have to worry about driving as we were collected from home. Laura has an exceptional knowledge of Canberra wines building on her background from her experience in Bordeaux. She is the consummate host and guide; informative, polite, accomplished, considerate, flexible.

Laura is an amazing host she is passionate about wine and has amazing experience and knowledge to help guide you through the tour. Laura knows all the winemakers and gave us great insights into the region and what it produces. She is an absolute delight and made our day so enjoyable nothing was too much trouble. Everything flowed seamlessly and even though we ran a little late at the end it was not an issue. Loved the lunch at Four Winds Vineyard their pizza is amazing. Cant wait to do it again!

We recently celebrated a birthday with family and close friends on a wine tour hosted by the wonderful Laura from Van Du Vin Canberra Winery Tours, and it was nothing short of exceptional.The day was personalised for us perfectly, taking us to three stunning local wineries, a truffle farm, and finishing with delicious wood-fired pizzas, chocolate, and cheese tastings. Allergies were catered for, and preferences in wines considered in the planning. Every stop featured friendly, knowledgeable staff who added to the relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.Laura herself was an outstanding host—worldly, professional, and incredibly warm and approachable. Her wealth of knowledge about the region and its producers truly enhanced the experience. Travelling between destinations in her beautifully presented car added a touch of luxury and comfort to the day.This tour was the perfect way to celebrate a special occasion, and I couldn’t recommend this small business more highly to anyone looking to create unforgettable memories in the Canberra region. Thank you, Laura, for a truly fabulous day!

We had really lovely afternoon and wine tour with Laura. She has a real interest in wine, having lived in France and Italy and provides an informed commentary on the way to several vineyards. She will curate the wine makers to your preferences and knows everyone! Recommended without hesitation.

My expectations were beyond exceeded. Laura was kind, knowledgeable and very chic. Could not speak more highly of our experience

Whether you’re a wine connoisseur, a nature lover wanting to leave the city, or simply want to connect with real Australians, this tour is for you. We spent the day with Laura tasting fabulous wines, talking to winemakers, and enjoying the beautiful countryside outside of Perth. The fact that our pizza lunch was fabulous and in a beautiful setting was an unexpected bonus. Most importantly, we simply enjoyed Laura’s company and learned a lot about wine. You’ll really enjoy this experience.
