An itinerary built around you
If packed bus tours aren’t your thing, we’re the tour for you. Every one of our wine tours in McLaren Vale is itinerary-based, so you’re always in control of your day. Stick to a pre-planned route, focus on one winery you’ve been wanting to visit, or simply tell your driver what you feel like and let the day unfold from there.
We’ll tailor the tour to suit your group’s preferences, giving you the flexibility to enjoy a relaxed pace or a full day of tasting across the region. Talk to us when planning your trip, and we’ll keep the itinerary open, allowing you to change your mind on the day if something catches your eye.
Cellar doors, local wines and long lunches
McLaren Vale wine tours are about more than tasting; they’re about food and wine together.Â

From a casual lunch overlooking the vines to a longer course at a winery restaurant, we’ll cater to whatever your group is after.Â
It’s a day of good wine and even better food, all arranged around your preferences rather than someone else’s schedule. You’ll head home with stories of your own to tell.
A day that could include the iconic d’Arenberg Cube
