Our Fruit Adventure Tours take you around the orchard with an expert guide. You’ll learn about our farming practices and discover what real fruit tastes like. Rayner’s is one of the leading u pick farms in Melbourne.
U Pick and Orchard Tours
A Different Kind of U-Pick
Please note our farm is different from any other fruit farm that offers U Pick – due to the large quantity of fruit varieties on our farm, you need to take a fruit tasting tour with one of our farm guides, in order to find the trees with fruit ready for picking & tasting! U Pick is therefore not available without taking the Fruit Tasting Adventure Tour.

I had an amazing experience at the fruit farm today! Not only did I get to taste a wide variety of delicious fruits, but I also got to take a nice round trip around the farm. Our rider Brendan and his colleague Andrew were incredibly helpful and kind-hearted, making the experience even better. he farm

Fantastic experience. Wide variety of fruits. The fruits are as natural as they come. Very juicy and full of flavour. Reasonable take-home price. Super friendly and nice tour guides. Family-friendly environment. I will take my family there again for sure.

Was a great experience to pick your own fruits and eat them on the spot. you get to bring them with $6/kg. Guide Andrew was friendly and share with us how to pick them.
