      Canberra local wine and gin tasting tour
      A thoroughly enjoyable day! Lots of very good wine, great pizza, and even some fine local gin and chocolate was sampled along the way. Ben was our friendly, informative and helpful guide. I definitely recommend this tour.

      More wine, less gin - PLEASE!
      We went on the Winery, Distillery, & Tasting Tour with Lunch. It was an enjoyable day with a small group (6 guests plus guide/driver). Part of the tour, as advertised, was a behind the scenes look at a local winery, but this did not take place. We visited three wineries in total (one for lunch but this included a tasting as well!). Two of the wineries - Shaw and Four Winds - were very good, but the third was below average - the wines were not as good and there were no tasting notes provided. Lunch at Four Winds was exceptional. Wasn't overly impressed with the Chocolate Shop, but did learn that gin is not for me!

      Great day out sampling best wine, gin and vodka
      Fantastic tour - Vine and Gin- good variety of tasting wine and a great artisan pizza lunch. Chocolates weee to die for afterwards. Finished with some if Canberras most beautiful gin and vodka. Learned how to make a few different cocktails which we will serve our guests for dinner tomorrow. Really enjoyed the day- we live just outside Canberra and we loved being driven around and not doing the planning ourselves.

      A great day out
      Went on the Canberra Vin & Gin Winery Tour. This was a really well organised tour. I enjoyed the wineries we visited and particularly the cellar door staff who explained their respective wines - they were full of character (just like the wines!). The pizzas we had for lunch were delicious and they didn’t stop coming. Going behind the scenes to see how both chocolate and gin are made was also fascinating. Our guide Shane was a great host.

      Great value for money
      We had a great time on the Vin and Gin tour of Canberra. The wineries visited were fabulous and the chocolate and gin stops were the cherry on top. Col was an excellent and friendly guide. Great value for money with a free lunch included and generous wine tastings. Would reccomend to anyone looking for a tour of the canberra region.

      What a great tour. Shane was really knowledgeable and helpful. It was really good to chat with the brewer at one of the breweries and have them explain the process. Great beers, great fun. Thank you!

      Great afternoon tasting
      A very informative and fun afternoon. Did the triple treat tour - beer brewery, wine cellar and gin/vodka distillery. Had more than enough time to taste while learning about the processes of manufacture. If you are interested in brewing, the beer part is great!

      An afternoon in the company of some award winning beers!
      This is our third tour with Dave's, and the first in Canberra. An afternoon well spent with Shane and three very different breweries. Lots of knowledge about the beers, breweries and brewers, and the first time I've drunk beer holding my nose! We recommend this if you're in Canberra.

      We had a great time on the beer tour. We'd all been to most places before but it was great to go behind the scenes and get the insider knowledge. It was a great day all round!

    Ingrid was our great guide for our Vin & Gin tour on 20 Feb 22. The relaxing tour was filled with excellent detail on wine making and wine regions from our hosts Bob, Gee and Rob, and it was filled with lovely sips, nibbles and giggles. All topped of with the amazing gins If you are visiting the region I would highly recommend Dave's Tours during your time in Canberra.

    Hi Nicole, I would like to apologise for the tour on the weekend. While alcohol consumption is a part of our tours, it should never get to the point where its excessive and affects the experience of other guests. Any groups joining our tours are given strict guidelines on expected behaviour and it seems these guys didnt adhere to it. Whilst i wasn't there, the guests who arrived "pre loaded' on the weekend should have been dealt with by the guide in a different manner. Unfortunately, due to the current restrictions, we don't have the staff we usually would, so the groups were mixed, which would be rare in normal circumstances. I chose to run the tour mixed, otherwise it would not have run. I'm sorry that you thought the tour was only 3 stars, if we can make it up to you, you have my personal number from the pre tour COVID check. Regards, Gregg

    We had Matt who was from Sydney but had no less knowledge on the places we went than a Canberran. He was fabulously enthusiastic and very passionate about beer (very much appreciated in our group).

    We had a team celebration and decided to use Dave's to tour around the best that Canberra can offer in alcohol! We met Shane and his driver "dad", who were very informative, fun to be around and ensured we had a great time.
    We started our tour at Big River Distillery which was interesting to see how their Gin and Vodkas were made. We headed over to Mt Majura Vineyard where we sampled a large variety of red and white wines, and had a share in their local cheese and meat platters. We finished the day off at Capital Brewery, with four generous samples of their craft beers and a tour of the brewery. It was an awesome day and we were able to accommodate everyone's taste buds! Highly recommend for business or personal events.
