We are the Gin Tour Company and we re based in Geelong, Victoria – Australia.
With an enviable reputation being built through our wine tours the opportunity to diversify with Gin Tours was more built out of demand from our clients seeking to come back again and experience something new and the fact that with several Gin distilleries in the area now being available we were able to put something together.
When it comes to alcoholic beverages it is fair to say we love them all and it is no different when it comes to the resurgent category that is Gin.
The best part about Gin and the Gin Tours we provide is that there are so many unique expressions and the experience from one venue to another is not like any other.
Crafting Gin from local produce to educating gin lovers on correct tasting techniques is all in a fun day touring around the Geelong Gin distillers.
What we love from these Gin distilleries is the experience that they provide. As a company that puts so much emphasis into creating the right experience for our clients, we do rely heavily on the venues to deliver and the best part about them is… they do!
So how our Gin Tours work, on the day we visit three distillers with the second stop also being the lunch stop for the day.
First up we head down along the majestic Great Ocean Road where the first stop is the Great Ocean Road distillery. Neatly tucked away in the small country surf town that is Airey’s Inlet you will be warmly welcomed and treated to two or three Gin expressions that certainly take the local produce and foraging for ingredients to the next level.
The second stop is the Queenscliff Brewhouse where you guessed it they brew their own beer but also offer three Gin expressions also. With a feed me style lunch on offer, gin in hand and great atmosphere you will be smiling from ear to ear.
The third and final stop for the day on our Geelong Gin Tour is The Whiskery. The jewel in the Bellarine Peninsula Crown as it is often referred to. Whilst their whiskey matures they have crafted some world-class Gin that has gained notoriety throughout the world and they have some awards to show for it too. The place oozes rustic charm and is fan favourite of the locals in the area too.
There is a bit of driving on these Gin Tours, but rest assured with a custom music playlist playing, plenty of water and some snacks (feel free to BYO) on the bus you will be more the comfortable and you enjoy the scenery and each other company.
If you are looking for an excuse for a gin tour then stop right there! You don’t need an excuse you just need a date. Book in today and we will make sure that you have an incredible day out.
