Richmond and Wine Tour , a fantastic day out in Tassie.
I would highly recommend this tour. Our guide was soo friendly and very knowledgeable. Andrew made sure we were happy with our winery visits and our lunch. One of the guests left their sunglasses at one of the stops and he kindly went back to get them for him. A big Thankyou to Andrew for a fantastic day .

The best wine tour experience
Excellent wine tour around Hobart! It was a very complete full-day experience, including visits to a cheese producer, four wineries, and a delicious lunch. We were a small group of just seven people and were very comfortable throughout the day in the van that took us from place to place. Peter is an exceptional guide – his great sense of humour, warmth, and friendly personality made the whole experience truly unforgettable. He also did a great job bringing the group together: even though not everyone knew each other at the beginning, by the end of the day we were all chatting, laughing, and having great time together (the wine definitely helped too!). Highly recommended!

Peaceful day with great wine
We had an amazing time. Peter took us to different vineyards where we tasted excellent wine with beautiful views. Everything is included, even a cheese taste and lunch. Peter is a great guide and let us enjoy everything with no rush. Thank you for an amazing time :)

Great Day out.
Great driver and guide. Clean and comfortable vehicle. Excellent wineries and lunch. Finished off with a nice view of the city, the bridge and river over to Bruny Island.

The perfect winery tour.
From start to end, Peter gave us the most special and memorable day! You can tell he was made for this role. He gave us so much insider info on Hobart, he was patient at each winery and you could really see he has an amazing relationship with them all. He joined in the laughs with us all (at us all). Peter was a big part of what made our day. I have been recommending him since the tour and i absolutely plan to do it again.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Richmond and Wine Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hobart.
How much does Richmond and Wine Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $157 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hobart usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Richmond and Wine Tour take?
+
Plan for about 7.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hobart is not rushed.
Is Richmond and Wine Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 79 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hobart, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Richmond and Wine Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Richmond and Wine Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Richmond and Wine Tour?
+
Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hobart can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hobart and add a light layer if any part of the 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Richmond and Wine Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hobart within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hobart?
+
On Outty we rank every Hobart experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include kunanyi/Mt Wellington Explorer Bus- Return Tour (2.5 hours), Full-Day Guided Bruny Island Tour from Hobart, Day Tour in Mt. Field, Mt. Wellington, Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary and Richmond. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hobart?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hobart?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Richmond and Wine Tour?
+
Included: Alcoholic beverages; Lunch; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Wine Tastings. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Richmond and Wine Tour?
+
Pick up and Drop off is at the bus pick up point at the Tasmanian Travel & info centre, Corner of Davey and Elzabeth St, Hobart Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Richmond and Wine Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Richmond and Wine Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Richmond and Wine Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Richmond and Wine Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Hobart. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Richmond and Wine Tour?
